Mundane Monday

Hello sports fans!  Here we are at yet another Monday.  As usual all I want to do is fast forward to Friday and start the weekend all over again. Sure would be nice!

The weekend recap.  Friday we went to the new place to eat.  It was well off the beaten path.  Good food!  Normally my guy orders up and that’s why the bill is usually so high.  The one time when we needed this to happen, he went cheap on me.  So we couldn’t use the coupon.  The drive home was interesting because we were in several very bad neighborhoods.  However, we found our way out with no problems.  Went home and I crashed.  I had just finished a 17” pizza all by myself.  Oink, Oink!  It was good but now it was time for sleep. 

Saturday, woke up early to take my guy to the eye doctor.  We got there and they told him he had his dates mixed up, his appointment was next weekend.  I didn’t think anything of it.  However, when we got home he made it a point to show me the card they gave him and he had the date right.  I told him to take it back next Saturday and show them, rub it in a little.  We went to breakfast and I had a coupon for this.  It was BOGO so there was no minimum.  Nice meal.  Got the mail and I wanted to stop at the fire station because they were having open house.  However, my stomach had other plans.  Each year they have this and each year something happens where I miss it. 

We had nap time.  I over slept and didn’t make it to the pharmacy in time to get Jumper’s medicine.  I went to Target and the cat food store.  I also stopped in at Radio Shack.  I got us a new weather radio.  They tried to sell me the most expensive model but I resisted.  I got middle of the road and that wasn’t cheap.  I moved the old one to the basement, it still works but you can’t hear it real well. 

Cleaned the house and we went to Joe’s Crab Shack.  Our waiter was nice looking.  I can’t stand that place but my guy likes it so I treated him.  I didn’t have a bad meal but as usual mine cost way less than his. 

Sunday was a sleep in and loaf kind of day.  We got going late.  Went out to eat, more hot waiters to look at!  Nice meal.  Then we had to rush home.  I wound up going to the grocery store alone.  I’m starting to think that is going to be the norm.  I hate grocery shopping.  He told me to get two things, which I did.    I remembered but wasn’t told to get flour.  However, I forgot sour cream.  I picked up a 1/4 of a sheet cake, not good for the diabetes in either one of us, but it’s good.  Also got some Blue Bunny Carrot Cake Ice Cream.  That stuff is damn good!  Finished up laundry and prepared for Monday.  Gave Big Boy the bath I promised him.  Nothing more than a good wipe down with wet paper towels, he so enjoys it.    Ick!

 

Tonight’s menu consists of Beef Stew or Beef Stroganoff, not sure which he is making.  I just hope it’s good!  I’ve got to get Jumper’s medicine so I will be a little delayed.  I put a reminder on my calendar so my phone will beep at me when I’m driving to remind me.  I sware my memory is getting horrible.  I forgot to mail a letter this morning.  I’ll get it tonight that is if I remember. 

 

Having a rather odd problem with the dishwasher.  I ran some dishwasher cleaner through and it turned out okay.  Put a load of dishes in and the soap packet didn’t dissolve.  Ran it through with a new packet and same thing again.  Put in dishwashing gel and yet again same thing.  I got to thinking it has to be the water.  Nope, ran it through again this morning.  We got water and we got heat.  Not sure what’s up.  They are clean now but it was like 4 times.  Once or twice I can see but 4 times.  I just hope this isn’t setting up a pattern. 

This is the big week of going out to eat as a company.  Wednesday night is the night.  I will be so glad when it’s over with. 

So now it’s another boring Monday.  I’ve got nothing on the agenda for today.  Just waiting to see if anyone calls with problems.  Sort of like the Maytag guy.  It’s good but it makes for a very long and tiring day.

Looking forward to lunch today.  Chicken Salad, yum!  Off to search the internet and see what kind of trouble I can get into.  Maybe you will see a 2nd post from me, kind of depends upon how the day goes.

Take care and I will talk with you peeps later!

I've had dishwasher soap packets not want to dissolve too..... I just switched to liquid dishwasher soap and that solved that.

Going to check out your second post now! :)
