5/27/2014 New Jobs & Blog Slacking



   I have been greatly slacking on all of my pages and such.  Since I have recently added some new local pages--after being tired of alllll of the rules of the local buy/sell pages---this is even more distracting.  While I was not working, I had more than enough time for lots of Exploring and ranting and rambling and posting.   Although I am beyond happy that I landed a job, I instantly went to working the graveyard shift on full time.   My body is so not used to this fun, so I really have done much beyond working and sleeping lately.  Today and tomorrow would be my daze off work this week, but further new hire training was in the cards instead.   More on the new job later.   To save a commute or two, and since the classes start early in the AM-- I am staying in a No Tell Motel- in Tucson tonight.  And hope to get several new blog posts up today.  If I do not get mugged, maimed, a disease from the bed, robbed of my computer, or just don't give from the spotty Wi-Fi service and fall to sleep.   We do not call it a No Tell Motel for nothing--but it might be the best ten bucks spent today.   In the mean time while I am slacking sounds to me like the best for you to catch up on some reading.  Mainly of MY pages.




 **My second blog series has some of my best personal pictures and lots of                     Exploring!**      
                                Please take a look around.

             This page gets updated first.      And it is on Facebook---so win/win.

    As always a big welcome to all or any of my pages!   Please comment on anything you see -especially if you do not agree with it.  




A shot I took right after signing all of my new hire paper work. 
Coffee cup with my new name badge on it. 
I turned the badge so you couldn't see my crummy "mug shot."
More on this later--but not today.




I hope everyone had an amazing Memorial Day!
I know I did, because I was working and making time and a half pay.
A huge thank you to all of the past vets and current service people out there!!




That's one hot dog!

 I would like to say I do not take selfies.
But sometimes when I am on a hike some were really kool-and no one is with me--I take a shot of myself and try to include lots of the background.  So you know I am not really sitting on my couch all the time.  Just most of the time.   AND every time I stay at a Motel 6 by myself--something that used to happen much more often than now that I am married--I take a snap of myself in the mirror.  


It is very rare---but no comment is needed here.

Random Rambling Or Venting? P.S. Don't Use U-Haul!




    We blinked a few times, and it is now almost 10 30 at night, so I am going to keep this a short post.  The daze have been going amazingly fast the past few weeks.  Even more surprising because I am not working at the time, or doing much of anything many days.  I do find myself tired every afternoon.  I do not know if I should blame the intense heat each day, our un-comfy beds, or my general lack of sleep for this tried-ness.  I do find it very hard to stay in bed, when it is light outside.  Bright mornings was not an issue much while we lived in Washington, or even bright afternoons for that matter.   I find it necessary to say Washington state, every time I tell someone were we moved here from.  I guess I find it much better to be associated with the state than our nations capitol?
    This post comes from the comfort of a local Motel 6.   We splurged tonight, after to many nights crammed in our travel trailer.  Motel 6 is a cheap way to enjoy comforts we have not had over the last few weeks.   Like cable, a bath tub, or even running water, and wi fi that works without walking across the RV park.  Amazingly the pool in this motel is actually open.  I have noticed in our travel--that the motel chain seems to remodel all of the rooms, and than close there pools.   The kiddos and I took a nice swim a few hours ago, and I hope to return before check out tomorrow, after lots of coffee of course.  We have just learned that it will be yet another day before we can move into our new house rental.   Still soon, but yet another day in the tight trailer.   Made even harder, after our night away from it all.   We have quickly learned that the trailer will make a great exploring/adventure hub--but is a stretch for sanity and comfort when on a trip over a few days long.  
      It seems we are waiting on everything at the moment.  Hurry up and wait!   I know that patience is a virtue, but dam it's hard to wait for such things.   Like a job, a real home, and chicken wings.  I have been talking about DURPS this week, and have been adding more to the list each day.  Of course I will be talking about all of this in depth soon.   Today I have to add U-Haul to the ever growing list.  If you do not know what a DURP is, please spend some time to roam through my older posts.  One just a few days back talks about several extra annoying DURPS.  One couple from Washington state, I will not mention names---but they are quickly becoming the Queen and Queen DURPS   to bad one of these is the husband in the relationship.  I know that they would love to read about themselves in my blogs so much, because in there heads, they are the most important beings in the World.   Luckily even if someone reads these words to them, I say that last line, because the couple does not know how to read I am sure, this is why I love my blogs so much.  I can type what I want, when I want.  So until freedom of speech is also revoked, Faaaaa on y'all!!   
       In short, do not use U-Haul.     No matter what your moving or relocating needs, find another company.  We have had ---are still having so many issues with the company, that when we get into our new home, and pull our stuff out of the U Haul storage units, we are not going to use one of there crappy trucks to get our stuff.   The company has stunk all through our process, and calling customer service, usually seems to make things worse.   The manager I spoke to today, started to speak slower to me, like speaking slower would make me less of a moron and I would understand his wrong statements betterer.  Ill say it again, and will in much more detail, I am sure, do not use U-Haul.   I would rather pack all of my sh*t on my back and make 88 trips, than use the company again.   
              In the morning I will return with an exploring blog post.   This one about my trip last month to Billings, Montana.  Filled with exploring, my deep thoughts, and as always, my personal pictures.    
                      For now  Good Night
