My weekend plans.


Tonight I am going to make some chocolate chip cookies as soon as I get home, I'll be using milk chocolate chips. YUCK, I know. They're what Ryan likes so I do it every once in a while to please my man. Actually this will be my first time using milk chocolate chips. Then Ryan's little brother Chris should be arriving at our house as I'm pulling them out of the oven and we'll be loading in his infiniti to go to Beaver Dam, AZ to escort Ryan's grandmother (as Chris calls her, emphasis on GRAND) back to her summer home in Payson. I already got a substitute for my Primary class, two weeks of not doing a lesson, yahoo for me. I think on Saturday we'll go see this. I'm sure there will a good picture to post, Ryan and his brother like to wear old man jump suits in Beaver Dam. They're such characters. One time we were at Hoover Dam and got separated from Chris and he had to walk two miles to meet us at the car in his jumpsuit. He was channeling Forrest Gump when he ran across the county, wild hair and beard. If you know Chris this story is quite funny. I'm laughing right now. I wish I could write as well as my sister, she has the ability to draw a picture in the mind of the reader. Oh how I miss the folks in Iowa.

It's just been one of those days.

I have really bad hair right now. I get out of the shower put the towel on my hair long enough to brush my teeth and by the time I take the towel off, my hair is dry. My hair is not mostly dead, it's all dead. I stood on the scale this morning and gained 7 pounds overnight. I haven't waxed my mustache in way too long. Then I saw this and felt much, much better.

I hope you all feel better about yourselves as well.

This post is one of the many reasons my husand will be alone in heaven.

Cross your fingers for me.

I really hope this is handled before the 23rd of this month. Ryan and I have tickets with American Airlines to fly to Buffalo to see Niagara Falls and Palmyra two weeks from today.

My graven image

On February 2nd, I became the proud new owner of a GEprofile oven. It's a convection, double oven. The bottom oven is a bake, warm, and store, which goes up to 450 degrees. (A lot of double ovens only warm in the lower oven.) It has a meat probe, you plug the probe into the meat and the oven will display the temp of the meat. The larger oven is on top, most double ovens have the larger oven on bottom. It has so many bells and whistles that I know would be boring to read about. It is stainless steel and I stare at it, worhip it, probably much like they worshipped golden calves in the Old Testament. Ryan will often walk by me and say "Looks like someone has a graven image." I love my oven.

TECH SUPPORT!!


I had the worst dream last night. Ryan had to wake me up becuase my crying woke him up! Has anyone had dreams that are so realistic and so sad that they wake up crying? It was just plain awful.
