Hello, all. It has been a while. I am still working at Walmart. I've been there over two years now. I have been thinking of all of you and hope all is well with you. Right now I am hunkered down waiting for hurricane Irma. It will definitely hit this area I am in. To my fellow South Floridian members, be safe and of good courage and common sense(I saw a fight between two men in the parking lot of a grocery store.)

On a more positive note, I have been chatting with a woman from Russia (now residing in Amsterdam). We have been chatting for a while now. She is a decade younger than me but we happen to have common interests. I had realized that the promise that I had made to God was a mistake. It took me two years to finally accept the fact that I needed to be with someone. I needed to connect with someone. Lesson learned. I don't know how it will work out. I have no idea what to expect. But I will not throw a dark cloud over the possibilities.

Miss your posts, take care of yourself.
 
We've taken quite a whipping from Irma. A lot of trees in the neighborhood have been uprooted. One hit the front of the house. The power went out this morning. The wind is still gusty and it may be quiet tomorrow. Now all we have to worry about is security because the alarm system is off. I am sitting down in the den and if anyone tries to break in they will be shot.

I wonder where you had been G. Hope you are safe and sound either at your place or a shelter.

I was steel-shuttered in with my brother and his wife. Now I know what it is like to be a sardine. Not crowded, but contained. We were relieved that we didn't have to go to a shelter and we chose to ride out Irma, who had surpassed Hurricane Andrew. Irma is gone now and all is quiet. I have to call into my job to see if we can come in to work (we had been closed since last Thursday). I am still working and living paycheck to paycheck. Hopefully it will all change soon.

Hope so soon.
 
The power returned to us Tuesday evening. The neighborhood was elated. It felt really good to sleep in an air conditioned home after two days without power. When I returned to work, all the meat, produce, dairy and frozen food shelves and containers were cleared out and the place stunk. And because the place ran on generators, there wasn't enough power to run the other machines or the air conditioner. It was like working in a steam room. I had heard that power had returned and all is normal. The company is going to give all the employees disaster pay. That was good news.

On the job, everyone was doing the OTH(overtime hustle). I had just completed working over 55 hours this week. Combine that with last week's schedule, the company is allowing me to have a total of over 95 hours in next week's check. I hope it'll be worth it.
