Cleaning break

It’s the middle of the night, and I woke up a couple of hours ago. Started cleaning the house and found a T-shirt I had misplaced. I also found my glasses, a book I bought a month ago, also a recipe I wrote down on. 3x5 card. So after 2 hours of cleaning I am taking a break. I got to smiling when I found that recipe.  I am going to look up side dishes to serve with it. Look up some sewing patterns for my crockpot.

I love to sew and have a few patterns. I have sewn my kids clothes when they were little. Halloween costumes. Prom dress. My kitchen curtains. A quilt for my grandpa. Now I have to decide what Halloween costume I will be sewing for next month. That or resort to buying a T-shirt that says, ‘this is my Halloween costume.’

Some new things in my life is a DVD player for my little 25 year old television. My husband was with me and very strongly insisted that he buys it for me as an early Christmas present. He still wants to throw out the old one. All it needed was a new remote. Also went to the thrift store and bought a lite cookbook. We have a couple of these cookbooks that this author has written. So this is what is happening, cooking more at home.

So now it’s time to get back to finish the housework. I will start vacuuming when the rest of the household is awake. To surprise my husband in the morning. I will make mocha hot cocoa.

Life somewhere

Having a good Sunday. Had a great day yesterday on Saturday. Went out for BBQ with friends. After that we went to Sonics for dessert. Then went to the mom and pop bowling alley called Arrowhead. Bowled a couple of games then went home.

Got home and there greeting us, was our dog. Got his leash on him. Put him in the car and drove around town. Especially drove past the restaurants, smell-o-vision for him, then came back home. I was asked before, why do I take my dog for a car ride. Which I replied, “we had a good time going out for the day. Our dog would like to go out too. So a car ride and a walk in the park is great day for him also.” We just  love our dog.
