I saw the news of the bulls running through the town in MA and I was wondering if anyone was close to it. Apparently they escaped from a rodeo. It took quite a while to round them up.

Apparently the Instacart shopper I had last week doesn't know the difference between nectarines and red plums. I kept trying to figure out why they were so hard and didn't taste like nectarines. They were really green and hard and even after a few days in a paper bag they still don't taste very good. Plums definitely are not usually on my list.

I got the cold that my roommate had, I ordered Nyquill capsules and ended up with liquid. There is nothing more vile than Nyquill. But I gagged it down, ended up waking around midnight and didn't really get back to sleep except for a few minutes here and there. Not a good night.

It's foggy this morning and is only supposed to get to 70, I'm not sure if it will.

It's either feast or famine at work. Not to long ago I only had 16 hours for a week, and now I have so many jobs stacked up I'm not sure how I'll get through them. But work is good.

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning. It's cool and grey here. But not crisp. Too much humidity for crisp. More like moist. Ewwww.

I ended up taking two walks yesterday on my rest day. One for the steps in the morning coolness and then when Roger left for softball practice I realized I had only half the steps I needed and no other plans so I put my sneakers back on and went out for another walk in the late afternoon hazy sun. I ended the day with 76 minutes of exercise, 10,844 steps. No running in place needed thanks to the second walk. Food was really good. Lunch was excellent. Chicken kebob and veggies. Huge serving. I've get enough for at least two more meals. I did add a serving of TJ's maple popcorn last night. All water, all day.

Today I am hitting up the gym for the weight machine circuit, times 2. Maybe 3 if I'm feeling it. But that would be the most I have done yet. And the treadmill. Roger is going and he'll probably go to the jacuzzi while I'm hoofing out my steps. And I have a fitting for a dress a friend of mine is altering this afternoon. Again, wild and crazy plans over here.

QoTD: I carried several things into my young marriage. But I began to realize how bad a cook my mom was and either found a new way to cook the items or kicked them to the curb completely. I do still make my Mom's version of Shepard's Pie and when the kids are home they ask for Mock Tacos or BBQ cups. But that is it. Sorry Mom!

Bites today

B: egg bacon 1 slice dave's killer bread

L: chicken kebob and veggies

D: Santa Maria style roast, salad, a little mashed potatoes

Peace!

What a relief.

It really was. It shut down the courthouse in SLO too. I have his location thankfully so I knew he was safe before I spoke to him.

Rob loves the NBC TV channel in CO, Denver I think? We always watch that news before the NBC Nightly (in which our bombing was the second story after the hurricane) so we are familiar with all political ads in your area. Interesting!
