Working Late...

 Today, I worked late.  I thought I was supposed to start at 2:45 but went in early.  Turned out it was a good thing, because I clocked in at 1:15 PM.  My actual start time.  Whoever was supposed to replace me never showed up.  So, I ended up closing at a Courtesy Clerk.  I over clocked.  I hope I won't get in to any trouble.  I'm drinking a Dr. Pepper now.  

I ended up having a good day for some reason.  My financial problems are far from over, but I am hoping to be able to save some money soon.  In the mean time I have to pay for an eye exam.  $65 dollars is the cost of an eye-exam at Wal Mart.  

After work, I bought a sandwich, a Dr. Pepper and Sour Cream and Onion Pringles.  Scott called, while I was at work.  So, once I had eaten, I called him and we talked about work.  Then, Scott shared an article from the Washington Post about Tesla's catching on fire, in people's garages.  A fire inspector suggested that it was the "thermal management system" as one of two possible causes.  I wonder what Tesla will do to prevent this from happening again?  Several different companies have recalled the battery on there electric vehicles.  Including Chevy, and Audi.  The electric cars are not more prone to fires than gas powered cars.  But the fires are more intense, and burn longer, according to the article.  Customers have been advised not to park there electric cars in a garage.  Several fires were reported including one in San Francisco CA, and one in Frisco, Texas.   What an interesting article.  Thanks Scott for sharing.

Rhetorical Writing Triangle

  Rhetorical Writing Triangle I wanted to run an advertising campaign.  To test out the features of pinterest business mode .  I chose this Rhetorical Writing Triangle to advertise.  The campaign has generated 61 clicks.  It is clear, I do not know what I am doing.  But I am interested in learning so I could help out and maybe make some money.  It is clear, many people want to learn about Rhetorical Writing.  Yet, do they even teach it in school?  I have no idea.  I was home schooled.  But I did attend Christian Liberty Academy.  I remember some of there Grammar involved Essay writing.  Book reports too.

The Carter Family - Keep On The Sunnyside (Live 1965) IN COLOUR!

I don't really know the history of the Carter Family.  For all I know, they are related to Jimmy Carter.  But I like this song!  I first heard it in the film O Brother Where Art Thou?  when I saw the film in the theater.  But unfortunately, the film featured George Clooney who came out against Trump.  So, I put off listening to this song, until I saw the Carter version of it.  I know of June Carter- she married Johnny Cash!

The Storm Outside

 Today, I worked as a Courtesy clerk.  I worked from 10 PM to 5:45 PM.  I mostly gathered carts, did trashes on the Front End, and did returns, or go backs.  I had a lunch.  I used lunch to purchase a deli sandwich, a Dr. Pepper, and a pack of cigarettes.  Then, after that, a thunderstorm began.   At first the sky threatened rain.  Then, by 4:30 PM it began to rain.  Then, there was lightening and thunder.  According to my Dad it rained "3 inches" in North Texas.  There was more than one storm in the area. After I got off work, I came home and tried to let Max out.  But he did not want to go out.  I had to be patient with him.  So, I went ahead and let him stay in, prepared to clean the mess up.  But so far, Max has done fine. I made coffee.  I did not think much more of the storm.  I lay down while my coffee brewed.  As I lay down, I closed my eyes, but was awoken by a flash of lightening, an...
