Friday Fun

Again this morning I got up about 0730, I probably could have stayed in bed longer, but I was not breathing well and thought that I should get up if for no other reason than to be able to breathe better. I made a couple of waffles and veggie sausages for breakfast. I even used lite maple syrup, I really do not mind it, and it has a whole lot less calories.

While sitting at the kitchen table eating, I noticed some rather large weeds growing in the garden just below the window. So after eating and doing the dishes I went outside and started pulling them up, just in time to get them in the yard debris can as the recycler was driving up.

With that done I went inside and read the paper, and again, before I finished the mail came. Kathleen's needles for her medication that came yesterday arrived with the mail. She was concerned that they were not with the UPS refrigerated package that arrived yesterday.

By the time I finished the mail, I started to feel hungry so I made myself some refried beans and tortillas, it use to be one of our staples, or at least one of Aaron's staples. I mixed it with some hot salsa, yummy!

After a short rest, I took some things out to the garage. Going back to my office, I decided to tackle a couple of the boxes that have been sitting in the corner for a long time. I went through five boxes and a couple of bags and when I was done I had recycled a box of paper, magazines and catalogs. I also through out about a half a garbage bag of junk.

It is amazing what one saves. The sad thing is I could probably do the same thing tomorrow and have the same results. I have cleaned out my office so much that I can even move the exercise bike in here and get it out of the living room.

Kathleen was supposed to go to physical therapy today, but she had an upset stomach and did not feel that it would be wise to go today, so I think that she rescheduled for next Wednesday.

Well, Kathleen had to get set up for the harvest festival tonight so that it will be ready for tomorrow. I was going to go along and help, but since I have not been feeling too well, I decided that it would be better not to go. I do not think that other people there would appreciate some one coughing constantly. I am okay as long as I am not doing anything too physical.

My cough is mostly from drainage, but it is very annoying and I know that my resistance is low, and I do not need to expose myself to others that might be coming down with something.

Since Kathleen was not home tonight, I made myself some hot, spicy chili and I cut up a sausage and cooked it with the chili. Between the refried beans for lunch and the chili tonight it is probably a good thing that I did not go tonight. I think that those that did go would appreciate that I was not there.

Well, this looks to be a quiet night again, so I think that I will say my good night now!
