going to heck weekend

September 28th, 2013 at 04:15 am

Not really me, but:

Saturday, I go to Wing Luke for free museum day, which is near-ish the stadiums, which will be busy tomorrow.

Then Sunday. Ah Sunday, day of rest. Maybe. You might have heard that grocery workers will go on strike. I asked my checkout person when that might happen. She said the earliest is Sunday. She also hoped that common sense and cooler heads will prevail ... two qualities that are in short supply these days, so they will probably be rationed, to be deployed only when everything else has been exhausted. Big sign at the front of Fred Meyer tonight - are hiring, but you have to be willing to walk through a picket line.

Then there's Monday. Will the government shut down. Again? Anybody else notice that Ted Cruz has a strong resemblance to Joe McCarthy? Especially that jaw line.

I have been busy finding change - my intimate EF now totals $13.43. Following some great advice, small bills; the largest bill I'm going to set aside is a $10.

Went back to the gym and am weighing myself at home. According to the scale at home, I'm 169. I'm working at it.

    Do you know if the strike is just in your county or is it all of NW Washington? I think I can get around it if I just go to the food co-op and the produce stand. It's less convenient, but I'm not one for crossing picket lines.

    Oh, never mind. It looks like the stores that are striking are not ones I shop at anyway.

    My vote is stay in bed with a cup of coffee and a book.
    Just see what shakes out by Tuesday. Wink
