Last night I had Marie Callendar’s Beef Sheppard Pie. It was really good just as per usual for a frozen dinner not a big enough portion size for my fat ass. There was real ground beef and it tasted delicious. It was between that and a frozen Tombstone and I think I made the right call.
I woke up this morning to the sound of a meowing Gator (that sound so wrong but if you know I’m talking about it cat then it makes perfect sense) wanting food at 6a. I gave in willingly to her desire. I powered up my phone and caught up on email, social media and porn. Then decided to watch recorded TV. Eventually I got up checked my blood sugar, all good at 101. Then grabbed a diet soda, had a small brownie and some scones then returned to the TV and eventually back to bed. The kids and I were all in the same room, perfect silence and blissfully we all fell asleep.
I got woke up at 11a to the sound of a lawn mower. The lawn man showed up on Saturday. Not a crime but we have had our first freeze and the grass is dead. My yard was riddled with leaves but he took care of that. It looks nice but today was his last day mowing this year. I sent him a letter and his last check, told him to check back with me in the spring. I’m sure he wants to mow 1 more time in 2 weeks but I see no need. Mother Nature has wind and that will clear the leaves just as well. Besides that, Monday there is snow in the forecast.
I grabbed a shower and got dressed. Grabbed a sandwich and a soda. I wanted to leave but opted to play on my phone and sit with Marvin on the couch. He loves that, just being next to me relaxes him and he falls into the deepest sleep. I love watching him, knowing that my presence brings him such joy. Eventually I had to get up and get moving or nothing would get done.
Grabbed the mail, cat food, made a Target run, hit up Sam’s club and then came home to unload. Now It’s not even Thanksgiving yet and people are out in droves, right in my way and acting ignorant. You’d think there is some super sale going on but nope it’s just a Saturday in November. I had a couple close calls with traffic accidents but thankfully nothing happened thanks to my cat like reflexes!
After unloading the goods, I opted to go grab some supper. Hit up Cracker Barrel and had Meatloaf. It was okay, I should have stuck with Fish or Chicken & Dumplings. I did grab a whole Chocolate Pecan Pie on the way out the door so I have pie! Returned to home.
Decided it was time to paint. Got that wonderful task done. There is a slight paint odor but it’s actually not bad at all. I am waiting for it to dry overnight and will take a peek tomorrow to see if it needs a second coat. If so then I will knock that out, if not then I am going to put the ceiling tiles back in place and call it a day. I have worried so much about this, it will feel good to put this to bed once and for all. I know the hole in the floor won’t go away but as far as I am concerned were done, until it comes time to sell this place or replace the carpet - - that will be a long way off.
Working on the laundry. Balanced my checkbook and saw that I spent way too much money today. I had this nice surplus but my needs wiped most of that away. I’ll be shopping on credit at the grocery store tomorrow, but payday will be Friday so I shouldn’t be in too bad of shape. I pay my cards off each month and NEVER carry a balance. My interest rates are way too high for that.
I did finally remember the master password I wrote about yesterday that I couldn’t remember. When I got it right, I was really surprised but relived. The password I needed was in there but the account got deleted by the service provider so signing up for a new account was my only option. Not a big deal. I will be transferring information so that I only have to rely on 1 password manager.
Looking forward to having a slice of pie before bed, doing the dishes and calling it a day. Tomorrow will be the usual breakfast out, grocery shopping and gasoline.
I have really been on guard the past few days with the car but no more issues with starting. It’s behaving normally, still in the back of my mind it’s lingering. Based on the behavior I saw to me as a lay person it looks like it was security related. I just hope it doesn’t happen again. Kind of wonder if there was some sort of cyber-attack. Kind of scary when you think about it. There is a modem that communicates with the big computer in the sky to track location. It also automatically updates the infotainment system as needed. Hell, who knows. I’ve been through enough and don’t need or want to add any more problems to my life.
Stay warm, be well and I will talk with you again soon. Hope that all is well in your world and I do appreciate you stopping by to check on me.
