Too Busy to Blog
This has been a week of running to and fro and eating too richly. With the exception of Monday, when I worked in the sewing groom for an hour or two while the cleaning lady was here, I’ve got neither sewing nor blogging nor very much reading done.
On Tuesday, Ramey called me in mental anguish, worried about her most recent worry, and insisted I go to the thrift store with her--one of the few things that has proven to give her peace of mind when she’s in a tizzy. So we went. Didn’t find much.
Afterwards we had lunch at Red Robin, where I consumed a delicious guacamole burger and Ramey had a veggie burger. Isn’t “veggie burger” an oxymoron? After dropping Ramey at home, I stopped by the grocery store to pick up a few things we were out of (of which we were out).
On Wednesday, after I stopped in to see Alana and get a haircut, I went to the grocery store and stocked up for the week, I thought.
But by Thursday, we were out of several things that I had forgot to stock up on. So I made another trip to the grocery store. But before that, Ramey and I had lunch with my handsome nephew Jed. He was in town to close the sale of his mom’s house (our recently departed sister Joanne). We lunched at The Three-Earred Rabbit, where I enjoyed a chicken salad croissant, Ramey had grilled cheese, and Jed had two hot dogs with a bunch of stuff on them. We all had some of The Rabbit’s famous homemade potato chips.
Today, Andy is coming after work for spaghetti dinner. However, I have discovered that I’m out of several ingredients, including spaghetti, necessary for a spaghetti dinner, so I’m changing the menu to chili. I absolutely refuse to go back to the grocery another time this week.
Stay well, everyone. And don’t forget to wash your hands.

Hope you can sit back and enjoy leftovers from those wonderful meals and the chili. We keep a small lined pad of paper on a small clip board and that is where we write our grocery list. Use the last of something, write it on the list. Better yet, use the next to last of something and write it on the list. Going to the grocery or out on errands, take the list! :)
How wonderful that Joanne's house sold so quickly though I know it makes the family sad all over again that you won't be going inside to visit with Joanne again and again. Sigh. Still, many in the family, including you, have some of Joanne's furniture and things in your homes so can always feel the ongoing love.
Rest up and be good to you.
Hugs!
