Good morning, O-zies, and happy Friday to you all!
Good news! I am in a better mood than I was yesterday. Whew! Don't get me wrong, I was still bored most of the day but at least I feel ok about it at the moment.
Guess how bored I was?
I was sooooo bored that I cleaned out the Tupperware cabinet. Uh-huh-- I did. I matched all of the lids and recycled all of the non-matching ones. Now I am waiting for all of the missing socks to reappear. My theory is that all of the missing socks and Tupperware lids live in a different dimension. Maybe by resetting that balance, the socks will be able to come back to this dimension.
Funny and somewhat startling moment when I was doing this: I had to practically climb into the cabinet to get to the back area of it. I have my headphones on and I am more in the cabinet than out. I rummage around a while, back out of it, and then notice that the toaster oven is on. Tom's bagel is in there and it wasn't when I climbed in. I never even knew he was in the kitchen. When he came back for his bagel, I teased him asking how tempted he was to kick me in my butt since it had been in his way. He said that he was being extra careful not to. Good answer, future SIL!
The sun came out in the afternoon and I worked on weeding and deadheading. Someone -- looking at you chipmunks that live in the drainpipe- has been eating my tomatoes just before they are ready to get picked. I took a half-eaten one off the vine and put it on a tree stump where the chipmunks and squirrels hang out often. I watched the cutest chunky squirrel eat it, too cute. However- the chipmunks must have gone back to the tomato plant because the intact tomato that was behind the nibbled one now has a huge chunk taken out of it. I guess by moving the half-eaten one it gave the chipmunks an easier path to the second one LOL
We are going to see my niece tonight and I am looking fwd to being with the family. She is only home for a few days and has no idea the next time she will be back here to visit. (She is in Vet school and her schedule is *packed*) I hope that Gary will feel well enough to come with us, yesterday was another icky day for him.
I think I am going to make deviled eggs even though my Sis-IL said that she didn't need anything. I got a dozen eggs at the FP yesterday and I don't like to go anywhere empty-handed. (I called the smaller FP that is open a few hours during the week. I feel bad since the volunteers take calls at their homes and then go in to fill your order. I only do this when I am getting desperate) .
Oh yeah-- back to the deviled eggs-- @Terri M got me thinking about them the other day. I will cook them in the Instant Pot this morning and have them ready before we head out at 5.
The best news of the day-- I don't have to worry about what to cook for dinner.
Ahhhh. I sound much better today, don't I? I have a busy week coming up so that should help my mood too. Thanks as always for putting up with me
