pointsevenout 2 months ago said: Around the bend.... Wednesday A strange start to my Wednesday, as I yawn and try to get back to sleep. Mother is running the vacuum outside my bedroom with the door open. Roused, I went to see what the clatter was all about. Said she was trying not to wake me up. Thoroughly confused as why she thought running the vacuum outside my open door at four in the morning wouldn't wake me, I took the opportunity to take out the garbage.
Yesterday I had supplied her with a homemade spray bottle of flea killer with instructions to spray at night and vacuum in the morning every day for two weeks. Have I unleashed an early bird monster?
Also started some garlic steeping in olive oil, since I was listening to the static of a vacuum anyway. It's a start to some more focaccia. I hear the garbage truck coming up the road. Maybe I can get a couple more hours of sleep before the sky starts to lighten up.

Didn't have Crispy Italian baked chicken last night so we will tonight. Neighbor had surgery so brought over some flowers,a rotisserie chicken and prepared mashed so they didin't have to cook. Got the same for us last night!

Karma's birthday is tomorrow but she wants to celebrate it Friday so she doesn't have to go to bed early. I'm hoping I will feel even better then. Have a cake to bake for them to decorate. And shhh, don't tell anyone but I am secretly thrilled at getting out of trick or treat duty this year. LOL, hope he is prepared to take them...I'm staying home with the bowl of candy. ;-P
Hope all my friends' families are taking a turn for the better with me....
The couch is calling....see you all later!

Hillary's H1N1 test was negative!!! She still feels like crap, her whole body is just so sore. But we can deal with that!!!
No clue what's for supper tonight, whatever she feels like eating. Probably cream of chicken soup and a grilled cheese.

Glad to see you are feeling a tad better today. Happy birthday to Karma, how old will she be? Points, I am sure waking up to a vacuum is not the best way to start the day! Looks like you have made the best of it anyway. You sure have more energy than I would at that time of the morning. Pleclare, how sweet of you to take care of your neighbor. Your chicken sounds great. Not sure what is for dinner around here; I have no potato's so I am pretty sure whatever it is will involve rice! Guess I need to look in the freezer and see what meat awaits the rice. Have a great one! Patti

Mother's off to the senior center and I have time to look for a nap. We're off to a doc's appt later on in the afternoon. You know, she's coming to a bend in the road and picking up speed, headed for the big Eight Zero. She is a woman ahead of her time. In her mind she was a week ahead of herself last week. Think she is becoming more impulsive. (Yeah right! As if a woman can become more impulsive. :) ) Saved $2 on $10 in 'scrips in the pharmacy yesterday, then when we rolled up to the checkout counter we didn't have the coupon to save $10 on a $50 grocery bill.
Enough verbal abuse of the senior staff or I'll never find that nap.
