Had a really busy day today.
As on most Saturdays for the last 2 months, I had to get up early for a class. It was especially difficult because I had stayed up reading "The Cell" by Stephen King way into the wee hours of the morning. What can I say? I couldn't put it down. This is the second book in two weeks. I hardly ever get to sit and read so it's been quite a treat. My next book will be a historical nonfiction about Catherine D'Medici.
My Saturday ritual is to wake up at 7 pm, feed the cat and then lay down on the couch and watch "Friday the 13th: The Series." I've always enjoyed that show and am fortunate that it's on at a time that I can watch it.
I went to the class but not before I picked up my Saturday breakfast of champions: Red Bull and a bag of chips. No it's not healthy. Yes I should eat better. Yes I will strive to.
I have volunteered to make coffee for the class. I look at it this way...I want some and am sure that everyone else wants some to. I did make it on time to make it this time. Last class I was...a little late.
I struggled for wakefulness during class. I am not good on Saturdays and I sure miss sleeping in. It will come.
After that I went to Safeway and picked up some baking stuff so I could, well, bake today. I got home and should have went to the gym as I had an appointment. I phoned them to say I couldn't make it, but the good part is that I rescheduled for tomorrow. I'll take the car out tomorrow.
I had a nap and felt groggy and icky for a couple of hours. Then I started to bake. I've made two loaves of Amish Friendship Bread and a dozen mincemeat tarts. There's a third loaf still in the oven.
I'll be giving away most of the stuff...there's no way I can eat all of that. I just like it.
I picked up a brain mold for Halloween. I bought some of the stuff I'll need to make my Jello brain. I can't wait...I'm tempted to try it out tomorrow...just for kicks.
I'll be taking a couple of Jello brains to work for Halloween. Can't wait :)
I think I'll sit and read a magazine now. I've had it for a couple of days and I'm itching to read!
