Work so far has been good ( just 1 day in WA2). Came home yesterday (after doing a mailing) , hear a bunch of metal on metal noise half an hour later and go outside to see the house directly right next to mine has had half of it's fence plowed over and front porch taken out n 2nd part of the fence messed up by a drunk driver now fleeing in a Jeep.
Turns out he hit another car down the road and as he was trying to flee from his 2nd accident crashed into another car, had his tire down to just the rim and his Jeep was stopped by the telephone pole by Walgreens on Charles. We followed him and saw the cops and ambulance ppl tending to the woman driver in the car. We gave our statements there and then again when the cops came to our street to view the damage, get our neighbor's statement and collect evidence ( dude's bumper and headlight were in our neighbor's yard as well as tire tracks in the dirt).
Today was good😀. I tried some Ritz Toasted Chips multigrain flavor w/ my Cheesewiz for a snack since I knew we were going to Outback to use our gift card we had gotten from Jamie guys. I got the crackers last week as Logli's was having a great sale on Ritz, Triscuit and Wheat Thins ($1.88/bag!). I got 2 Triscuit flavors, roasted garlic and 4 Cheese and Herb ( ladder tasted too much like grainy pizza) along w/ the multigrain crackers. I have yet to try the other Ritz Toasted cheddar flavor or the sour cream and onion flavor I picked up today for $3.69 BOGO. I am going to have to bring in my bike Friday after work or Saturday cuz the seat slipping might mean I need a better clamp. Might try to see if I can make the clamp tighter...
Outback was good ( got the Outback Burger lunch combo instead of the Walkabout Wednesday grilled chicken special of chicken, fries and a Coke for $11) and we kept making fun of the fact that we had a gift card (as the table behind us too) and maybe why our bday 'sundae' was just one scoop of plain French vanilla ice cream. It's been cold today ( barely 40, 40 MPH winds and on/ off rain) though so I was glad to get a ride to Kegel's/ Logli's on our way back. I wanted bean dip but couldn't find any by the chips, so chose to just get refried beans. Might have a light dinner today of bone broth ( it does taste different than reg broth, more drinkable) and crackers.
Bad things: My Mom might have broken her foot or have tendonitis or something. She had it X rayed earlier today and is waiting for her Dr to call her and it's looking like we are going to be doing that Galesburg paper a little while longer since Nightside keeps hiring unreliable ppl who either quit, no call/ no show til get fired or end up being drunk/ in jail and are down to just 6 workers now from last month's 17....
