Just popping in for a short post. Stayed home from work Friday because I was tired of all the coughing. I’m still congested and that’s causing the coughing, but otherwise I feel okay, in spite of bf bugging me to get an rx from the doc because I’m not getting better (his opinion).
I raked a lot yesterday because it was a beautiful day and there were a lot of leaves in the back. I see more fell since then, so more raking is needed. Bf will have to do that, and before Wed, which is our last day for curbside leaf pickup. After this week, we’ll need to bag the leaves - a lot more work. In back, our maple is almost done dropping its leaves, but the oak is mostly hanging on. It’s always the holdout.
I went to Walmart to shop yesterday and have decided it’s not worth it for grocery shopping. They don’t have nearly the variety of brands that other markets have. So I still need to grocery shop some more today. I also want to get to Kohl’s and use a $10 coupon I have - it expires today. I’ve been wanting to buy some socks to match a pair of brown mary jane shoes I bought a couple months ago. I need all kinds of other clothes, but I’ll just focus on the socks and maybe I’ll come across something else I like without scouring the racks. I think I still have money on a Kohl’s gift card I can use…
Right now though, I think I’ll make some veggie soup with a recipe that has it going in the crockpot after sauteeing the veggies. Bf won’t want it because it has no meat, but too bad. I want it. I’ll thaw some ground beef and tomorrow he can either make the Italian veggie soup which has ground beef in it, or he can make something else w/ the beef.
Okay, time to publish and get cooking.
Hi Stranger. Hope you get feeling 100% soon! Soup sounds yummy.
Your BF sounds like my DH. There must be some form of meat in the meals and some form of carbs. Anything less and he’s disappointed.
I don’t really grocery shop at Walmart, just a few items here and there but for the most part, I buy at the grocery store.
Hope you feel better soon and enjoy your soup.
I make avocado-asparagus wraps and my Sweetie likes meat with his meals too, so I just pan fry chicken breast for him. Nothing special there… lol
So mary jane shoes… are those flats with a little strap over the arch of the foot?
I remember that you had congestion a while ago and had a hard time kicking it… I can see where BF is coming from with that side of things. It seems that I can’t kick bugs so well lately either. I wonder if there are just a strain of bugs that are bred to sustain! Grrr…
I’m so glad to hear about the zipper project!!!! I usually do it in stages too. I like to have a clear mind with each step. I’m looking forward to hear how you feel about the results. I know it will look great!
…and you’re right about TOM and cravings. I think I will put on my boxing gloves next month. I think I should avoid negative feelings. They can’t be doing me any good.
Glad you are getting some rest at least
