Friday at last

Somehow four-day weeks drag by.

Went to the market this morning. Bought three whole chickens, only $0.57 a pound... freezing two of those. Hot dogs, pizza... fruit salad. Bought some circle noodles for the kids.

Need to liquidate more of the IRA funds. Money is very tight. Very, very tight.

Looking forward to the football championship games this Sunday.

Would like to buy some amendments to use this weekend. If the weather is going to be spring-like, I might as well do some gardening. The kids will probably just want to stay at home. Maybe I'll drag them out somewhere or other. Or not.

Just sitting here right now. Listening to the Howard Stern show. Which I can't get on my iPod for some reason. Maybe I need to convert the file to MP3 somehow... try another converter...

Friday

Go pick Flynn up in a half an hour. Three-day weekend.

Went to the market this morning. Planning on making salisbury steak, potato cheese soup and sweet and sour meatballs... none of which I've made before. Also two soup recipes I want to try. Or one other soup. Corn chowder. Also make a pizza. And make salsa. And possibly make huevos ranchero. I've only made that two or three times, and it's one of my favorite dishes, certainly my favorite breakfast. One time I made it when Mom was visiting and her car needed repair, some rainy day. Great day. Love rainy days.

Nice to see the sunlight reflect off the fountain.


Doing laundry, folding laundry. Unloading the dishwasher. Putting dishes away. Putting clothes away. Making Cassidy's bed. Washed my sheets. Nothing special, but it seems to take a lot of time.


Walked to school yesterday from the library and today from the gym. Cassidy does not like walking. Didn't take Flynn for a bagel yesterday but did today.


Girl Scout meeting tonight at 5:00 or 5:30. Haven't secured a uniform for Cassidy yet.


What else? Went through bills yesterday, not good, not too bad, though.
