Last Day of the Week

Another oops. Shld been Sunday

It’s Sunday. Today is truly shaping up to be a day off. I am home alone. I have 2 chores. Groceries done sononly need to fold laundry. Emily not here. I am actually bored, like Ed.

Today we slept till 830. Finally sleeping in. Only one glorious day but at least we got it.

Usual start to the day – doggy constitutional, breakfast for all, coffee (I finally bought a bag). Usual. I had the time to sit and spend an hour with my friend the Chronicle. We have been in a relationship for 50 years. Very nice. The weeks crap was really done by yesterday except light grocery shopping. Emily has a girls day with her sister and a friend. So she will be gone. I have to fold laundry and I am done. I reallly will have nothingbtondonfor half a day. Half a day out of seven to myself.

So went to the grocery store. Really was light shopping, only $30. Perishables only. I did forget to go to the butcher shop. I’ll get something from the freezer. If there is anything. My whole trip was under 30 mins.

My friend Cissie called when I got back. We had a nice time catching up on all the mundane, yet very important things going on in our lives. Cissie and I twent at pretty much every day but the once in awhile call is nice. Our call crossed her nap time so she had to go. She is canning blackberry jelly once her nap time is over. Maybe she will send me some. Boy, that would be awesome. Especially after all the homemade goodies she sent last week.

Ok. Laundry is folded and I am up to date on today’s blog. What to do? I will report back later.

Well, what to do? How about nothing? Or at least not much. I did a few mundane things. Nothing special hence the mundane tag. Emily and Dee came home in late afternoon. Their girls day turned out to be mostly shopping which is not a surprise. I would expect no less.

So Dee took off for home. And her new four pair of shoes went with her.

We ended up getting dinner started. Only started because Emily had no rice for risotto. So we went to the store. I got to go through the meat on sale like Ny Strips 30% off. I got those. Emily decided to buy pork ribs. We already had them in the freezer it turned out. And we got risotto. Which we also had in the cupboard. So the trip was 50% wasted time. Too bad.

The combo of a t bone and lamb steak was great. The risotto was ok. The wine I opened was not much of a Cabernet, too fruity. Although the salad was fantastic. Dishes done now. We watch TV. Nothing much on. Waiting for the excitement.
