I’m changing jobs within where I work. I’m going to a sister company of where I work. My ex-boss gave me some hot peppers he grew. 1 Ghost Pepper, & 3 Carolina Reapers. I’ve played lots with Ghost Peppers, but that’s the hottest I’ve gone. Carolina Reapers are a whole new game. I can balance heat & sweet(I can do a mean Mango & Ghost Pepper hot sauce), but one of the hottest peppers in the world?

On to the job change. Dry wall is the biggest seller where I work, so I’m going on the trucks delivering it. A little raise, & lots more hours. Another exciting thing, I’ve known it for months, but have not told people really. I’M GONNA BE AN UNCLE NEXT YEAR, HELL YEA. My sister is having a girl over the winter.
