Here’s my usual Yay for Friday. :) The boss mentioned she wasn’t feeling well yesterday, and today she’s at home. The other dept mgr has been sick and was coughing a lot yesterday. I was in a meeting w/ both of them yesterday afternoon - hope I don’t catch anything from them. On the upside, it’s nice being boss-less today.
I was tired last night. Been feeling that way for the past few days. Maybe it’s the weather - it’s been dreary and rainy all week. Or maybe it’s because I’ve been walking instead of cycling for the home-train station part of my commute. The walking is better exercise for me - full weight-bearing exercise - so maybe that’s it. Or maybe it’s because I haven’t been getting any formal exercise in a while. Or maybe it’s because it’s PMS week. Or a combination of everything.
Last night’s dinner was the last of the leftover chili - yum. Bf needs to print off the recipe from wherever he found it online. All I did was go through the mail and watch some tv. Ho hum.
I brought a sandwich for lunch and my snacks from home. Nothing going this weekend. Well, I have a blood donation appointment on Sunday. And it’s the end of daylight savings time. Everyone around here (including me) was confused about it - so it’ll be lighter in the morning? darker in the evening? Not sure why this is coming up this year but not really in previous years. But I thought it through yesterday and figured it out. (Right about now you’re thinking, gawd is she a dufus.) Anyway, this morning I felt less foolish about doing that because the radio guy also admitted confusion too. It’s not just me this year!
Other plans for the weekend is some cooking and the continuation of sorting through my paper pile.
Okay, nothing else to report, so I’ll publish.
mmmmm Chili… mmmmmmm
good for you for donating blood!
I just remember spring forward, fall back. Anything else I’ll figure out when it happens..
Hope you dont get cooties. Try not to breathe
It must be something about the weather or lack of sun or something because I’ve been dragging myself around for the last while too.
And it will be lighter in the mornings (um, I think).
I was confused this year about the time. I have been sleeping in so late and wondering why–well, we are usually switched by now and my body is on track. Dang government screwed up my brain! LOL
Re your Q on my journal: we usually freeze our cookies in ice cream buckets with a layer of wax paper in between them. BHG is good at stating how long the recipes will stay fresh in the freezer (usually 3 months). We put them in the deep freezer this year. Previous years, I’ve just put them in my fridge freezer.
I’m not sure about the candy though. We usually only make mints, not truffles or peanut brittle (which is tomorrow!)
Have you decided what you’re going to bake yet?
