I really didn’t want to hear those words. Was it that late? “I don’t know. I’m busy.” When I’m working on something, I hate to stop in the middle. It has never occurred to him that I might want to finish what I’m doing before doing what he wants. So I ignore him and keep working. I was almost finished anyway. What’s an extra 15 or 20 minutes? What was I doing? I was making my tunic pattern in another size. I was hoping to use the same facings, but they just refused to fit. I managed to cut new ones out of some scraps. I headed to the kitchen and started digging around. I found some small red potatoes that I had bought at a vegetable stand that had closed about a month so I figured it was time to eat them. I washed and scraped them and put them in the microwave. I found some frozen scallops which I thawed in the sink. What about veggies? Well, there’s leftovers and corn(Doug’s favorite). I sautéed the scallops with a little butter, parsley, dill, onion, garlic and bacon. They were good. Doug dumped salsa on his. He dumps salsa on just about everything. Sometimes I wonder.

“What’s for Supper?”
November 5, 2010I Am SO Full!
August 27, 2008I went to the dentist this morning to get some work done on my lower plate. They took out the liner and put in a new one. Then, I went to the mall and got a haircut. The last haircut I had was awful. I went to a new place in town and I will never go back. I hate to have to drive 20 miles just to get a haircut, but what do you do? My hair looks good, but I still have a few inches of color in it. It’s not very gray and the color I used wasn’t dark so it really doesn’t look bad at all. It was about 1PM by then and I was really hungry. I got an orange smoothie and headed home. Along the way, I stopped at a roadside stand and bought blueberries, Lima beans and corn.
Doug wanted hamburgers with mushrooms and onions in gravy, mashed potatoes and corn. I could never make this again and be perfectly happy, but he loves it so I make it occasionally. And I did have some nice ground sirloin. He ate three ears of corn and I had one. How does he do it? He just had a physical and blood work and all is well. I can’t eat like that. It’s disgusting!
Here, I am just about to start on the middle finger of my gloves. I made the thumb shorter than it was supposed to be. It was too long. I worked on the finger at the dentist. It is the the same width as the first finger. It was easier to figure out this time.
