Covid Test: Negative
This morning I made the husband get a covid test - He's been coughing and sneezing and has a runny nose. I hate to be selfish - but I wasn't concerned about him - it seems like just a cold. I was more concerned about my surgery being canceled. I guess people still get colds...anyway, the VA just called and he's negative!
Rain
It is a 53-degree day and it's been drizzling rain all day. You can't imagine how excited I am about this kind of weather. Already my backyard hill is looking greener.
Stockpiling and Christmas
Yesterday I reorganized my pantry and I have been stockpiling some food in my craft room. I had to organize that as well. I ordered my first Christmas gift - It will be small this year. Honestly, nobody NEEDS anything. We're blessed and so I don't feel compelled to get stressed out about finding the perfect gift. We're all alive and healthy this year. That's the perfect gift we have for each other.
Slow boat from China
Ordered them - paid for them. After a while I realized they should be here - so I went and checked, and they are literally traveling from a slow boat from China. NO communication. I'll probably get them - EVENTUALLY but it will be a couple of months I bet. That's when I know I am not the sharpest crayon in the box anymore - I used to be careful of this and this time, it never occurred to me. Duh!
Bye Bye Chicken
Cooked the chicken in the crockpot all day yesterday - It smelled all right but my son, Foodie who is a dietitian told me with chicken sometimes the taste isn't affected. He urged me to throw the chicken out - so we did. All of it. $30 worth of chicken which makes me sick. When in doubt, throw it out. I know that! I say that all the time but it was $30!!! and I was thinking about the money wasted more than anything. Thank God for a good son who reminded me of what I have always said.
