It's going to be a busy day, That's all I really got lol.
The weekend was packed and today will be no different.
We helped Rescue Squad clean out the buildings Saturday then came home to do more of our stuff. Sunday was the department meeting and then we had shopping to do.
Today I have to go pay bills and run an errand before I come home and start edging up at grams. I said I would help with the outside work so I will and honestly it shouldn't take me too long. It's just around the house.
We also decided that we would trade nights this month on training. Instead of going to the Saturday training we're going to go to the Monday night. Same training they just put it on two different days so it's slightly easier to make it.
We got the fish tank stand in yesterday and we have it up. We'll be transferring the fish tank today to that and taking the book case that it was sitting on up to Grams. We also have a big one to get up there. I should be able to get at least half the D's up today before the room comes to an end.
Once that happens I'm at a stand still until I can fix pop's room.
Pop's room needs cleaned out, the floor fixed and a new floor put down. It's a lot of money but we can figure it out.
Our house needs cleaned too and I'm getting there. Once we transfer the fish tank I'll be rearranging the bedroom. We also need to clean the kitchen and bathroom.
One thing at a time.
We're getting there with everything, it just takes time and since we're not asking for help and we're not paying anyone it takes more time than normal lol.
I'm almost finished with The Perfect Love by Bethany Monaco Smith. It has some really good parts but it also deals with female empowerment and touches s*xual assault and rape. It's not a bad book just a huge difference from what I've been reading. If you like regular romance I would recommend it. I will probably put up a full review when I'm finished. it'll only take me like an hour lol.
The shop is doing about as well as can be expected right now. I'm still pushing for people to come shop and orders in general. Mother's Day is what we're pushing and graduation. Father's Day and Mental Health Awareness is close as well.
I'm working career day for EMS on Tuesday. I'm super excited but I also have to be there super early to attempt to wash the truck before we go. It should be a lot of fun.
We got the truck's AC fixed this weekend and that's a huge relief. I know he's trading it in but it was needed until then.
Today is going to be a good day. Even though I'm still feeling this cold mixed with allergies. I'm telling ya my nose hates me. I'll get there though. Can't slow down.
What is everyone else up to today?

I've had one since middle school. I love it and I like the sound of the filter or maybe I'm just used to it now.
