Hello, my bucket list, friends! Along with welcoming a new month, the area I live in has also welcomed a lot of wind and rain. I know that rain is very important but it is not my favorite kind of weather, one reason being that it makes me tired and unmotivated. With that being said, I’m thankful for it. Before I ramble anymore about the weather, let’s get to my weekend highlights.
Friday – I worked my regular evening shift on this day. Before work, I went and got coffee at Starbucks. The day was pretty normal. My biggest highlight was doing some shopping at work. I got a purple Hot Wheels car and some clearance items, including more surprise toys and hair ties. I also got some more Valentine’s Day items.
Saturday – I worked the same shift that I had the day before. Earlier in the day, I went to ACE, where I got a key chain and a set of hot wheels cars. Right before work, I went to Safeway and the park. At Safeway, I got a Bunny Corns surprise toy. I enjoyed walking in the park it was a good time to walk because it was not raining. Work went well, and I also got more clearance surprise toys.
Sunday – Ok, here is the day where things get a little less normal. The weather got very intense on this day. The wind was more concerning than the rain was. At church, I spent a good amount of time focused on the trees, blowing back and forth outside of the windows. I was kind of surprised that the power did not go out during church since power outages are very common in the area where my church is. After church we went to town to do a few errands. At the restaurant that we went to for lunch, I got a free Valentine’s Day pencil. At Trader Joe’s I got some Valentine’s Day stickers. After running errands, I had a good amount of time before I had to go to work. I watched some of the Pro Bowl games on TV, It was really fun to watch. During this time, the wind really picked up. I was looking at the window at the trees again. Before work, I went to Starbucks. At work, a lot of people were coming in to buy flashlights since there were many power outages nearby. Soon after that the power went out at work and we had to close the store. The power was also out at my house. From what I know, another storm is coming. I hope there are no more power outages, but I have a feeling that there will be more. Stay safe, everyone!
