A tired, owe so very tired short message alert

This was a long snowy day. I took 66 packages going to 63 stops in the snow. OK, it snowed but not enough to stick around. Now they are calling for snow tomorrow. A week ago, they were calling for 50-degree (Fahrenheit) weather by Friday, but every day the weather gets worse. I started at 5 am, and I didn’t get home until after 7 pm. Part of that is the traffic on 224 after 5 pm.
 
I don’t have much or anything ready for publishing tonight. With the holiday coming Thursday I will work my usual one trip day but tomorrow I have the usual third Wednesday stuff so getting back on track with the story won’t be easy. My sister must work on Thanksgiving at 4 pm so I must have dinner ready by noon. I will work on the story when I finish tomorrow and while I cook on Thursday. Part of this will include a return to the flashback storylines covering more of Wendy’s time with the ranch and what happened after the fall. I might be working on Sunday, but I don’t know about that yet. I will keep going, and there will be more to come……...
 
Thank you for your time and patience. 

A Troubled Short Message Alert
 
It rained and snowed the entire route today. None of the snow stuck, but it did snow. There were over seventy packages in my route. I took 48 because I had to get home for a family thing. Tomorrow I will be working a double, but I won’t be able to on Wednesday with yet another family thing. I don’t have anything done on the story, and I won’t get much done tonight or Tuesday.
 
This has been a hard couple of months with all the extra work and problems that work brought. It seems that with every extra dollar I make I have a dollar+ in expenses and other problems. And now the weather is changing, and the snow is coming. I don’t see how they expect to keep up with the ever-growing amounts (and sizes) of packages. This is not going to end well. I will persist in the story and work when I can so there will be more to come………
 
Thank you for your time.

​A micro itty bitty tiny little borderline nothing in size short message alert
 
This was a quiet, long day. Today was my mom’s 75th birthday, and we decided to keep today low-key with my sister coming over on Monday. I didn’t have that much time to work on the story, so I won’t have anything to post tonight. This is going to be a short week with Thursday being Thanksgiving (US) and because of that I will be working doubles the next three days limiting my ability to work on Wendy’s War. I will have some time while cooking Thanksgiving Day dinner as well as after to work (depending on how long the family stays) and with that there will be more to come………...
 
Thank you for your time and patience.
 

​I love the Ellet BMV in a short message alert
 
Today went better than I expected. If you are in this area and need to go to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, then I would highly recommend the Ellet Branch. Friendly, quick effective there are just so many reasons to go there. I took my mother there so she could renew her license and tags. The state of Ohio charged us $80.25 for the tag and license. I only had the $80, but one of the helpful clerks gave us the .25 cents so I wouldn’t be charged for using my card. Did I say how much I like The Ellet BMV? With the task done I got home and started on the second part of chapter seven posting it earlier. Tomorrow is my mother’s 75th birthday, so I will be busy most of the day, but I will work on the story, and there will be more to come…………
 
Thank you for your time. 

Promising something while posting nothing

And yes, a short, short, shorty short message alert

This was a very dark dare I say a gloomy day with the threat of snow in the air. I had a lot of stops today spread across the county and with the snow I was out on the road most of the day. This is just a long whiny way of saying I have absolutely nothing done on the next part. I mean nothing, not a single word. nada, zip, zero, the opposite of something. I do have a plan for the two new characters added to the story. Tomorrow I am out most of the day helping someone get ready for her birthday (renew license and plates). I will get up early and work on the story as well as after, but I don’t know when I will have something to post (I’m thinking Sunday) but when I do there will be more to come………...
 
Thank you for your time and patience. 

Fat ass talking about the weather and short message alert

I guess they can be right about the weather sometimes. When I left this morning, the streets were dry, but there was something in the air. About the time I was able to get my car into the warehouse, the rain had started (at around 5:30 am and not the 7 am the weather channel said). The rain turned to ice as the roads became slippery. The local talk radio station spent most of the morning talking about accidents and closed roads including four jackknifed trucks. After all that I found the day went kind of smooth. Only two slippery streets and three slippery driveways. I had enough packages to make the trip worthwhile but with the weather and problems back in the warehouse cost me time. It always comes down to time.
 
I published the first part of chapter seven from Wendy’s War. This chapter will follow my usual 4 to 5 parts, but I don’t know when I’ll be getting back to work on the next part. This is a busy weekend with a lot to do not giving me much time to work on the story but when I find the time there will be more to come…………
 
Thank you for your time. 

​An extremely short, I mean tinny tiny shorter than short message alert.
 
This was another day on the road. The day started late with some complications at the warehouse, and then everything slowed to a crawl. Now we have harsher incoming weather for Thursday. I got home and started my computer only to have the endless updates start again. I did a little work on the story, but I don’t have enough edited to post today. Unless I die on the icy roads, there will be more to come……….
 
Thank you for your time. 

I started today getting ready for 1” to 3” of snow. The day came and went with no snow. The day did have more than a few hiccups with a low-pressure tire and a route that took me a strange way (going almost in reverse from my usual trip). The weather threat is still there, and I just hope they are as wrong for Thursday as they were for today. I got home, cracked some bones and put the pressure on. That is, I broke some turkey bones then I pressure cooked them into some bone broth for some soup.
 
After looking at chapter six, I decided it was finished (good beginning and end (that is good for my crappy writing)) so the next part published will be the start of chapter seven and the return to the war. I am working on the story but tomorrow and Thursday will be double days, so I don’t know when I will be able to post that first part. This coming weekend is going to be hectic with my mom’s birthday coming up on the 18th, but I will do my best to make sure that there will be more to come…………
 
Thank you for your time. 

Short weather fearing message alert
 
A change in the weather is in the air. You can feel it in the wind and see it in the clouds. They are saying 1” to 3” of snow by noon tomorrow starting sometime tonight. It’s too early for the snow, but someone forgot to tell the weather.  Today went well with a good map and a good number of packages. I dread tomorrow.
 
I worked on chapter six, but after I realized I wasn’t finishing before 7 pm, so I decided to stop and post what I have and do a part three (sometime soon). When I can (the snow slows my route down adding hours to the trip), I will post the next part and more with more to come…………
 
Thank you for your time.

I am working on the story while doing my usual weekend stuff. I bought a turkey from Giant Eagle for 38 cents a pound, and I went to bake it only to find the popup timer was missing, and the instructions didn’t include the cooking time for the small bird we had. The bird has a good flavor, but it’s hard to overlook the mistake. Oh yeah, the Browns won. Does anyone else miss the days when the days when the color commentary for local games was done by locals? I get sick of hearing the national people kiss the ass of the other team and their players. I miss having people with a connection to our team. I miss Jim Donavan (or was he on the radio?).
 
As I mentioned, I am working on the story, but I am going slow, so I don't have anything posted until I get off work on Monday. This is going to be a sucky kind of week with all the talk of bad weather coming. I can’t say just how much I will be posting this week (I need the money as well as time to deliver), but I will do what I can so there will be more to come………
 
Thank you for your time.
