Jack and Wendy gave Christopher a tea set as a thank you gift for continuing to help them out. Christopher said Jack might have brought it back from China. That was nice of them. It's pretty, and makes me want to drink tea just so I can use it. Only 4 cups, though, so if we ever entertain the family, someone's out of luck. LOL ( Read more... )

I'm sorry I'm not better sometimes. I know I can be. I just don't always want to be. And I know that's kind of pathetic ( Read more... )

I made a delicious roast chicken for dinner, with potatoes and brussels sprouts. Christopher is now happy that he married me and says he didn't know that he'd done so for my cooking ( Read more... )

Um. So apparently someone messed up and Gramma's biopsy for cancer was negative. So she's not getting radiation at all ( Read more... )

We finally committed to a name for the kitten: Isabella. It's so funny to watch her and Hopkins play together, because she's so small and he's so huge.

I stole a tenderloin from Gramma's freezer and made pulled pork sandwiches for dinner last night. They were delicious! I'm having my leftovers for lunch today. Not only was the pork yummy, but I got some fresh kaiser rolls from the store yesterday to have the sandwiches on. So tasty! I never knew what a great bargain pork tenderloins can be. They' ( Read more... )

She told me that she would fax my resume to the corporate office and they would decide whether to call me for a second interview. So hopefully they will, and soon. The funny thing is, the woman who interviewed me must have been the assistant ( Read more... )

Holy slush, batman! It was snowing when we woke up, and at around noon Christopher and I had to go outside and shovel snow off the driveway for almost an hour. And then, of course, after we came back inside it rained, and now everything is slush. It soaked right through my boots on the walk to and from Curves. Fun times. It's so messy and wet out ( Read more... )

Now we're considering turkey sloppy joes for our Thanksgiving dinner. Christopher's going to try to get over to No Frills after work in the next day or two to pick up the extra ingredients we need for our meals this week. Man, I love cooking. I always forget how much I love it. I'm not one of those people who buys into the notion that you have to ( Read more... )

So apparently no Turkey Day festivities are planned here after all. And even if they were, they'd probably fall apart if it meant the family had to show up. *ahem ( Read more... )
