It may not be a good marriage for long! Vince has been assuring me that he will be here by mid-March. Last night we were talking and I said something about "after you get here in March" and he said "I may not be moving there by March but if not, I can come back and visit for a week!" WHAT? No! By March we will have had this house for 7 months. It is past time for him to be living here. I don't ...
Cross Stitched Sled Ornaments
If you even halfway think you might want to cross stitch, please head over to Denise's blog and read this post. Denise had mentioned these to me but they sounded kinda scary since I still don't really know what I'm doing (what else is new?). I've asked a million questions . . probably the same four question 250,000 times! She said "STOP with the questions. I'll do a tutorial!" She didn't say it ...
Sous Vide Cooking
I haven't used the sous vide this past week. Chad has been using his and reporting all the things he's made. He put a big chuck roast in the smoker for a couple of hours to get the smokey flavor, then cooked it all day in the sous vide and he said it was so delicious. Today I'm cooking two bags of rice - one for Rita's food with no seasoning and one for my food with butter and salt. I'm ...
Anniversary . . of Sorts!
Today it's been one year since I had a hair cut. Considering that I got my hair cut every four or five weeks, I'm thinking I saved enough money to almost cover my cross stitching supplies but I doubt Vince would view it that way. I had an appointment scheduled for February but was in Missouri so I cancelled it and then by the time I got back and tried to make an appointment, the lady who cuts ...
Late Breakfast or Early Lunch
It was almost 11 this morning when I finished getting the groceries put away and other "first of the day chores" done. I was hungry and had to decide if I wanted to heat up leftover chicken jambalaya and green beans or fix breakfast. I chose breakfast! Egg bites that were frozen, guacamole, salsa, bacon, flour tortilla and jackfruit that Vince had cleaned last summer and was in the ...
A Busy Morning
Last night Boots slept in the sewing room - not his choice! Vince always calls me before he goes to bed, which is about 9:30. My normal going to bed time is around midnight (or later). He called me at 9:30 last night and said goodnight. Then I decided .. heck, I'm tired. I'm going to go to bed and watch flosstubes for a while . . which was about 5 minutes before I wanted to go to sleep. Then, it ...
