The Day in Spikedluv (Saturday, May 31)

I hit the Pharmacy and the Bakery while I was downtown, then Stewart’s (for gas and milk) on the way home. I also stopped by the library to pick up more books (and spent some time later requesting more online). I did not get in a walk around the park, but I did take the dogs for a short walk when I got home. I hate having to carry an umbrella on my walks.

I did a load of laundry, a load in the dishwasher, the usual amount of hand-washing dishes, and scooped kitty litter. I also boiled the pasta to finish off the pasta salad, made cabbage salad for tomorrow, and baked chicken for the dogs’ meals. I grilled hamburgers for supper, to go with the pasta salad.

I watched some HGTV programs, finished the current Clare Fergusson mystery, visited with mom, and placed an online order for Pip.

Temps started out at 54.5(F) and reached 57.4. It rained most of the day and the wind picked up in the afternoon. Thankfully there was a lull in the rain so I could grill.


ETA: After we ate last night, Pip's buddy showed up with more BBQ chicken quarters! Pip was like, I didn't order them, I didn't ask him to get them!!! I've put the fear of BBQ chicken quarters into him, lol!

The Day in Spikedluv (Friday, May 30)

I had the final follow-up visit with my surgeon this morning. There is a sore spot on my foot (not where the incision was) that she thinks might be from scar tissue, and there’s a bit of swelling (that I hope will be taken care of when I get walking again), but other than that I’ve been given a clean bill of health!

I hit Price Chopper and Agway while I was downtown and got in a short walk around the park. (And another short walk at home with the puppers.)

I did two loads of laundry, changed kitty litter, and did the usual amount of hand-washing dishes. I grilled country style pork ribs for Pip’s supper, cut up veg for a pasta salad I’ll put together tomorrow, and had a tossed salad for my own supper.

I watched the current eps of Leverage: Redemption and Murderbot, started the next Clare Fergusson book, and talked with my mom.

I didn’t mention this previously because I felt stupid about it, but the day I ate fruit, I ate too much pineapple and instead of just a tingling sensation, it actually burned my mouth, so bad that it created sores on my tongue. So sore. Still bothering me. I’ve never had that happen before.

Temps started out at 54.5(F) and reached 76.2. But it was overcast and breezy, so it didn’t feel like a nice 76. The weekend is supposed to be in the 50s again, with rain at least on Saturday.

SWAT Exiles: I’m not sure how I feel about this. Only one returning character. And the way he spun it as ‘change’ and ‘taking your lumps’ and being the ‘Tom Brady of SWAT’ made me go WTF?!
