Revving up
Here comes the busiest time
of year for my village, when tourists from everywhere will descend to vacation n day-trip here in time for the Independence Day celebrations. I'll be working like a dog to keep up with huge orders all week-
All the cottages fill up, n the roads get crowded, along with the shopping lines. For some local businesses, this week makes or breaks their year.
I'd rather be playing in the refreshing salt-water... I have yet to swim or BBQ any food.
But tales of hurricane n storms heading this way for the week-end may wreak havoc in folks fireworks n BBQ plans. My 6-day work-week beginning with an extra early shift once again, has reduced my plans to just trying to get thru the week until the following 2-Days Off next week allows me to recoup.
I hope everyone else has a fun Independence Day!

No July 4th plans here. It is too hot to go sit with crowds of folks and eat BBQ and my family is off onto other venues.
Tabor, Well, at least you can cool off in the lake n watch the birds. Here folks little fireworks are going off. n it seems everyone else has free time. Home from early shift n so tired! Enjoy your peace-
Burnout, its a good thing!

G.B.,This year is Burnout Ad-nauseum! At least 10 occasions of early due to storms n events. Tough to do that so often when on a night schedule. We're all turning into Zombies...
My day was quiet, but nice. I hope you have gotten some needed rest!
Happy late 4th, Snaggle. Hope you're less of a zombie now? BBQ sounds good, do you grill up on your deck?
Cheers and all good things to you!

Hello again. Thinking of you. Hope you are enjoying life. xoox
Lynn, work has just been relentless. Had to get up early for store both Days Off. Hope to sleep this week.
Jannie, Thanks- Still zombie tired plus machine is acting up here lately. So many people next door, too loud to sleep much.
Jannie, Hopefully I get on zippy machine later this week- been 3 weeks. Still haven't had bbq food or been swimming. But I enjoy watering the deck plants, n picked the first red tomato after work tonight! finally...
Well here in the UK the 4th is just another day, but we celebrate our eldest daughter's arrival in our home when she was adopted, so it's special to us but no other Brti it seems!
LLcoolJ, Well your home country lost a colony that day, so of course they don't have the holiday, but your family gained a much loved member, plus you are a part-time resident here- so Happy Day for you anyhow!
