sunday chores

Sounds like I've been busy, doesn't it? But not too much, really. It was a nice Valentine's day, and Ron and I celebrated by eating at the Japanese Kitchen. We had a delicious meal that we couldn't afford every day. It was a wonderful treat.

Of course we did laundry, as usual. But the dishes will keep until tomorrow. They always seem to keep, don't they? Never do clean themselves, do they.

I got to play a good bit of World of Warcraft with Ron, as well, and that was enjoyable. Raine even had a good time, attending Ezekiel's birthday party and having a sleepover. Then, today, Carrie's mom called and said Ezekiel had a fever... and then later (after we picked up Raine, of course) she said he had strep. Now the waiting period. I hope she doesn't get sick, but if she does, well, it happens. At least she's had a good week.

Finally, I finished up Ron's grandmother's Christmas rocking horse, and will get it ready for the mail tomorrow. That, and cut some new sewing projects out, and maybe even do a little sewing. I'm trying not to fill the time up too much with I want to's since those dishes are waiting, and we still need to hit Sam's, and a nap might just sneak up on me if I let it... but still, it sounds like a good day in the waiting.

Aside from the strep (poor Ezekiel! Here's hoping it passes Raine by.) it sounds like a perfectly wonderful day, dishes notwithstanding.

And really, in the grand scheme of things, dishes generally don't take that long to address once you're actually doing them. Unless, like I did in my 20's, you wait until literally every dish in the house was dirty. . .but we won't talk about that, now will we? Thought not!

Have a great day, and if a nap mugs you, well then so be it!

Yeah, we won't talk about waiting until all the dishes are dirty, or how the kitchen smells when you do that... ewww. (oh, no, I never did that in my 20's either...)

On the upside, I clean the kitchen and make some homemade tomato soup and maybe some cream cheese/blue cheese dip, and I'm a happy camper, with lunches!

We're about to try a brownie recipe made with black beans instead of flour, and if it's as good as everybody says it is, we'll be sending the recipe your way.

Some days just require comfort food, don't we?

MMMmmmmm brownies. Yes definitely send the recipe if it works out. I'll be able to pass it along to Roxanne as well, who is on a gluten-free diet now.
