One third

 Here it is the end of the April month. One third of the year gone. What has happened? It’s written on all my to do lists. Almost all the things I have done is hand written on the to do lists. Got to take the dog to the vet. On the to do list it goes. Eye or doctor or dental checkup on the to do list it goes. Bringing a baked good and need the few ingredients to bake it. On the to do list it goes. Then the list gets tossed once it’s all checked off. If I didn’t toss all the to do lists I have written until now, you could wallpaper the rooms in my home. The only to do lists I haven’t tossed, is the one thing that I haven’t done. and checked off. It is me, learning to play the guitar. Right now my to do is to get ready to go to work. Yes, I volunteered once again for OVERTIME. I write it boldly so I know which days I have overtime at a glance. That’s four days of overtime this week. So with all this extra money I treat myself and others. This time it was a meal at a restaurant and ice cream afterwards. 

Winds of April

 With the snow gone, we now have the wind taking place of the snow. It was a cold wind. The kind of wind where your jacket helps keep you warm just a little. I know the March winds and the poem about it. I will make up my own poem about the winds in April.

April snow and showers

 Still not surprised that we have snow, we live in the Midwest. Now when we have sunnier days from time to time. Lots of people look forward to it. I know I sure look forward to it.

March madness

 How is it that I have missed making a March entry here. Am I that busy? Yes. Did I work a lot of overtime? Yes. Do I volunteer for overtime? Absolutely! We have a lot of orders that need to get out the factory. So we volunteer and help out when and where we can. I would say that if anyone is looking for a job, it can be found. Especially where I am working, we need people to apply for a job, just like any place else that is hiring. Now I don’t count my overtime pay. I look at is as a bonus. So when I get  the overtime money in my check. I use it to fix something that has broken down. The refrigerator, washer, dryer, car, miscellaneous. Just working day to day and living day to day to take care of what we need.
