New shiny baby


Starting Sunday
Kev put the little extra room fan in the window last night and sleep came fast. I did get up at 3:30 for the usual bathroom break and stayed up for a while. When I got back to sleep I was in some fantastical dream where I was watching a movie, Alive in Wonderland-ish, in chairs that were like big, cushy chair swings. A boy next to me shared some chocolate covered raisins but gave me too many. I ate 5 and gave the rest back.

Bacon was put in the oven and Kev made some dandy delicious scrambled eggs to go with it. We watched CBS Sunday Morning, as they were highlighting a segment on Josh Groban and his new Broadway show, which debuts in November. I'm excited that we have tickets and will see it brand new.

Quick lunch before leaves
We left the house at 10:30 for a trip to the mall. I had an appointment to pick up my shiny new iPhone 7 Plus baby. My old phone, which was Kev's old phone, had finally gotten to the point where my apps were crashing and it was super annoying. Yay for a new phone and a business write off! We got home and I heated some cocktail wieners and leftover Brussels. I stirred in two tablespoons of Stubbs regular BBQ sauce and it hit the spot. We needed sustenance for the four hours of yard clean up that was had after lunch. 12:30 to 4:30 was spent picking up leaves in the front and back and then I mowed. A big thanks goes to Dany & David for helping to haul our leaves to the leaf drop. Kev put out the Halloween lights and skeleton and we're ready for the trick-or-treaters.

Grilled chicken salad
After I did the final sweeping and Kev set the light timer I went in for a well deserved shower. Once all clean I went down and washed up some green leaf lettuce and made a version of Mama's salad dressing. In it was the juice of two lemons, lots of freshly grated Romano, canola oil and a splash of basil flavored avocado oil, garlic, dash of salt, some fresh grated black pepper and a wee squeeze of Stevia. I had to call Mom for some tips and it turned out so good. We each got two and a half thin chicken breasts on our salads, some black olive slices and chopped green onions. We ate and started season 10 of our favorite Heartland. Afterwards we had some orange sugar free Jello.
