Another week, here we go! I will be done with call after tonight for a week. It's been a very quiet week with only one call, and I didn't have to go out to respond. Hopefully the next week will not make up for it. Weather is not promising this week, but if possible, I hope we can hike Rib at least once later in the week. I suspect Daylight Savings Time will end soon, and along with it, our evening hiking light. Hopefully I can motivate to go to the gym once or twice a week in place of the evening hikes. Root beer float day at work. An annual freebie too good to pass up. Won a raffle prize from Empty Bowls. It came from Pass It On, a second-hand store. It is a very tall amber glass vase that really resembles the bottom of a table lamp, and in lieu of a lampshade, they put an old black ladies' hat on top and hung multitudes of tacky old necklaces and bracelets from it. It is currently on the bookshelf in my office, but will likely be gifted to Maxine before too long as it's really not my style. The good thing is that it was accompanied by a $50 gift certificate from Shippy Shoes. Not to forget about it, I've already spent it as I needed new insoles for my hiking boots. They should be replaced about once a year and mine are about 7 years old. Not to be wasteful, I put the old ones in my new Keen day walkers as they are still better than the factory insoles.
