Question mark

For the first time I am at a loss for a catchy title.....lol!  Not much happened Tuesday.....it was cold, windy, and rained most of the day and into the night.  We spent our day, shut in, girding up mentally and physically for week 2 of 10 hour work days.  We, of course, spent time watching news about Hurricane Sandy.  So glad we are not near the northeastern coast.....what a mess!  We feel so badly for all those impacted by this storm.  West Virginia, where we had planned on being last weekend,  got hammered with a lot of snow, but no flooding as far as I can tell.  Our friend's wife broke her shoulder trail running so we cancelled our trip.....we had planned on being with them the entire weekend into Monday, but the weather alone would have been a problem, so our decision not to go because of our friend's injury also helped us avoid the snow, which could have potentially been a problem.

Again the electric heaters were on all day long.  It just was not a day for being outside.

Amazon is expecting the work to pick up here in Campbellsville for a few days due to closure of one, or two other Amazon fulfillment centers due to Hurricane Sandy, but that remains to be seen.  Since millions of people in the northeast are without power I don't think there will be much internet buying from that area going on for a week, or so.

TLE fixed Jumbalia (sp?) for dinner and, of course, it was great!  I took about an hour nap before dinner, and we headed over early to Amazon to see how cold, or warm it was going to be.  I entered with a long sleeve t-shirt on, but after walking over to building B where it seemed even warmer than usual, changed to my short sleeve shirt.  Of course, I was wearing shorts.  The work "day" seemed to go fast to me until the last two hours when I, unexpectedly, developed a blister on my right big toe.  I was totally surprised as I have had no issues with my New Balance shoes since I got them in Oregon in July.  I did wear a different pair of socks than I normally do, but that doesn't totally explain the blister.  As it turns out work did not pick up here in Campbellsville.....in fact it slowed down a little last night, and some workers (stowers) were sent home early.  That makes more sense to me for the reason I previously articulated above.  We, however, worked a full shift.  We'll see what happens Wednesday night.

We also found out that our five 10 hour work weeks will not begin until sometime after November 17th. We were scheduled to go to five 10 hour days on the 10th originally.  We will, however, see a change in the days we work....Wednesday through Saturday beginning November 17th in preparation for the week we will add the 5th day, which will be Tuesdays, making our work week Tuesday through Saturday (technically Sunday morning) then.  That means the week of the 17th we will have a 4 day weekend......Saturday through Tuesday.

As I sit here writing the sun has come out, and there is not a cloud to be seen in the sky.  I got up at 8:30am after only 4 hours of sleep longer.....I just couldn't sleep any longer for some reason, so there is a long nap in my future today.....maybe sooner than later.  TLE is still sound asleep!

Thanks for stopping by!
