Good Morning, yet, for a few minutes!
Very busy in my life as usual! Had a very busy weekend when all I really wanted was some time to slow down. Didn't happen.
Took Friday off to try to "catch up" but it turned out to be a super, super busy. Went to the Dr. to try to figure out why I still have hives or a rash. It's hives. Not sure what from. Went grocery shopping but didn't get everything because it wasn't found out until Sunday that I'm out of a bunch of stuff. New list started.
Friday night was supposed to have one of the girls' friends come in and cook dinner for us but friend never showed up until late. Thankfully, I had a back up plan by making spaghetti earlier in the day and also I got the meal prepared that "friend" was going to make. Never made this meal before but I did it anyway. The "friend" came and ate and decided to tell me what I did wrong. Wow! Not all of it was wrong but just one thing.
Saturday, we picked beans at my parents house and we ended up freezing them all in our freezer. Something like 24 quart sized baggies packed full and we gave some away to a friend. Also, green peppers, pickles, squash. So many goodies. Then later in the afternoon we had a little bday party for my son's birthday which is tomorrow but he has a full day so we squeaked a little cake in on Saturday!
Sunday, church and we were coffee servers after that. Same daughter as above invited two more friends over for dinner. So I had to scramble and get more food made because I didn't know they were coming. I need to talk to her. Friends are fine but advance notice is necessary. Luckily, I had lots of goodies for a big salad and I threw together a pasta salad with chicken so there was enough. We had a good time with these friends so it sure was better than Friday night. Ice cream sundaes and birthday cake for dessert.
Now I'm totally out of pasta in my house and lettuce and a bunch of other things that we ran out of on Sunday. So the list is getting big. Did anyone notice the spike in egg prices last week? Our local Meijer had a dozen for $1.99 and SaveALot had them for 99 cents. That is a big spike and I don't know why.
Now, I'm plowing into the work week which is busy as well. Hopefully, after work we can resume our walks. I've had this rash and the heat was too hot to walk but tonight looks good. I'm going to do pork chops (maybe smothered) so that will empty all of my frozen mushrooms as well. I just want them to be tender.
