The total rainfall so far for the 2 days we have been off this week is over 2.5". This morning it is 37 degrees but at least the rain has now stopped. After thinking about the last several weeks, our days off seem to be filled with lousy weather while the weekends are terrific. We have to work inside during those days so as far as enjoying any nice weather this month, we haven't. It's the roll of the dice I guess, as last year we enjoyed some great weather on our days off.
All we did yesterday was get haircuts and have lunch at a neat place in town called Happy Days. It is a place we've heard about and seen as we pass by it on Main St in town, but never tried before yesterday. The atmosphere is, of course, like the Happy Days show. They have a soda fountain, tables, booths, 50's memorabilia and the best burgers we've had in a long time. I had a shake with mine, Josie had tea and we both had home made potato chips that were outstanding. The bill came to $14. We stopped on a spur of the moment decision so we didn't have the camera, but we will definitely return again.
There is another dinner with friends scheduled for tonight. Rodger and Sue will go to Gatti's with us us for the pizza buffet. They have switched their duties at work from Stowing to Picking for the rest of the season. That involves a lot more walking as they roll carts around the warehouse "picking" merchandise from the bins that have been ordered by customers. We feel that the outbound personnel will be the least likely to leave early at the end of the season. Amazon will be filling orders right up to Christmas Eve day, while the merchandise that we stow will most likely already be stowed and ready for "picking" by earlier in the Christmas week. Our plan is to leave here ASAP!
That's about it for now as we get ready to enjoy our last off day for this week. Maybe we will be able to get the rest of Christmas out of storage - if the rain and wind stop...
