Bouncing along Lake Erie on a ferry to Kelly’s Island and Put-in-Bay. Ship is fast and the waves of a bit high so I am glad I don’t get seasick. Guess they have a schedule to keep and to the passengers just need to stay seated.

Before that I went out to look at a. couple of lighthouses and went through a “Safari” park that was a bit of a rip-off but at the same time rather fun. Dinner was provided by 5 Guys and I am stuffed for the near future.

Would love to report more but coming into the next port so will get some pictures…once we slow down some.

Let’s see:

- I last wore a dress more than 20 years ago (though I will wear a dress as part of a costume at certain upcoming author events), and that was for formal night on a cruise
- I last wore a skirt more than 20 years ago and that was for formal night on a cruise
- I have never used hairspray
- I have worn lipstick once? twice? though I do have a lightly tinted lip balm I’ve used once? twice?
- I have very infrequently used a tinted base to cover a pimple or surgical wound
- I have pencilled my eyebrows three times (at the beginning of chemo)
- I have worn eyeliner as part of a costume
- I have worn eye shadow maybe three times
- I have used mascara maybe three times
- I curled my eyelashes with [the infernal contraption](https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/shopping?q=tbn:ANd9GcRg-1ptwoPvsSf8TakSEJ1clsZNvijuku094ynR21dWavvvgJGumu3KBqHjRV0RZaLFUeelA5IdcEIMwOxjEkRW0k4_tn-h) two or three times

I cleaned, dusted, and vacuumed. Spot’s litter is changed. First load of laundry is in the dryer, second load is sloshing. I took out the trash and recycling, and left a bowl of bird seed out for Onan.

**Fang** called me. He’s playing a new game he wanted to recommend to me. Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon. He knows I digs me some Arthurian shit. Unfortunately, the Steam Summer Sale is done, so on my list it goes for the Fall sale.

Cheesy Sausage Drop Biscuits  
1 roll of Jimmy Dean Sausage. I like hot for this.  
3 cups (370 g) Bisquick  
1.5 cups Milk  
1 tablespoon White Vinagar  
8 oz Cheddar Cheese, shredded

Brown the sausage. I use a ground beef masher to break the sausage into little, tiny bits while it’s browning.\[1\]

Combine the Bisquick, milk, and vinagar. Stir until smooth.

Add the cheese and sausage.

I use a 1 tablespoon disher for consistency. Bake at 425°F for 10-12 minutes on convection bake, 15-17 on radiant bake.

Filters on my old wig. No more filters. I am proud of who I am.

Nailed it!

1. At the risk of sounding condescending, but browning is not the same as “no pink remaining.” Browning occurs after all the water in the meat is cooked off which is about five minutes after all the pink is gone. I didn’t know the difference until it was pointed out to me recently.

This looks easy, inexpensive, and tasty. All good qualities in a recipe. 🙂 Thawing some bulk sausage now to make this. I own a cute little tool for breaking up ground meat into crumbles that I think works better than a potato masher.

I started wearing make up at 10. White lipstick looks good. Stopped wearing dresses and skirts when girls were allowed to wear pants to school.  
Hair way long since 6th grade.

I am currently wearing a skirt. I have enough mobility for undies and cargo pants now, but have found that I quite like my full midi skirts. Its like I’m carrying a blanket that I can wrap around my legs when I get cold. I’m going to buy a full length skirt and might consider adjusting my wardrobe.

We still don’t have any squirrels in our yard so tomorrow we are going to go buy some dried corn on the cob to hang on the back fence, far away from my hydrangeas and see if that works.

Branches falling on houses are a thing out here so I promised Hubs I wouldn’t have trees planted. I said nothing about bushes and this fall I should be recovered enough to start planting along the front fence.

Hubs said he was going to find a painter for my room and it just didn’t happen. Odd how things like that get forgotten when I’m the one pushing for it. I asked Harry if he knows anyone and he said he did but I couldn’t use them now.

(Harry is doing OK. He’s spending a lot more time on his mower, rain means nothing anymore, but I honestly think he is just living for his family feud.)

Apparently, the brother in Florida who bought that trailer out from us is selling it to the blind brother. The blind brother’s housekeeper will move in after it has been redone and Harry has gotten hooked into spearheading the remodel. The housekeeper doesn’t feel safe in her current apartment when her long distance truck driver husband is on the road.

I’ll be doing the transfer paperwork for that transaction and Harry thinks I should charge at least five hundred bucks because they are both loaded and I deserve it for being so patient.

Harry’s granddaughter-in-law is a rather crunchy vegan who refuses to cook pork. She will cook a chicken or hunk of dead cow once a week but NO BACON!

Harry has plenty of options. He can kick her out and hire a housekeeper who will cook bacon, he can call Tudor’s and have as many orders of bacon he wants delivered to his door, he walk over to family or friends on the block and get bacon there. Heck, he could drive a few miles down the road and buy bacon to cook for himself in one of his own kitchens (small one in the MIL suite).

Instead, he chooses to come here, where bacon is no longer on the menu, to complain bitterly with hubs.

Howdy Y’all! Been a relaxin’ day here at da cave. I even actually cooked and we had suppunch at 3:30 this afternoon. I did go gas up and whilst out went to the Food Kitty and picked up a rutabaga (a big one!) and got a small pack of poke chops. We had both with some succotash, a packaged (don’t judge!) sorta fettucine alfredo side, and corn bread. I also brought home an apple pie from the sto’. It fell in the cart, I swear! We et well, plus leftovers for tomorrow. We also accomplished nappage and day drinkin’. Gotta stave off scurvy and malaria after all. Plus, the biiiiiig trash can has been hauled all the way down to the road for pickup tomorrow. All in all a good day!

**MetalMouse** enjoy the ferry rides.

**Mollie** glad they made it to their first destination. Big Ed’s looks yummy! I make the very same thing except I call 'em sausage balls. The dang things are so nummy!

**Taters** happy prep and paintin’. OK, not happy maybe, but at least hope you get a lot done.

**Coppertone** score on the potluck leftovers! I will offer stuff to folks after we have first Sunday brunch so I don’t have many or any leftovers to take home. I am sure the folk who loaded you up with goodies were glad to do so.

**knavette** sorry about the dresser, but, Happy Doperversary!

**BrightTree** I quite agree. Two outin’s in a row is much too much for me. We skipped church today because I spent about six hours there yestiddy and was so tahrd. Plus we did have Communion and I did serve and made sure candles and such were ready for today, so I felt that was duty done.

**Lily** I am sure your lovely wife thinks you are lovely and that’s all that matters. Also, Happy Doperversary!

**Cookie** AWWW! Sadie looks so content!

ETA: **JtC** I agree with Harry. You should get your money’s worth for your expertise and the work. If I were there, Harry would get all the bacon he wants every day.

I found my khaki Ex Officio shorts/swimsuit/trousers, a blue Ex Officio shirt, and a Salmon one, in the wash. I wore the Salmon shirt to church today. Gave the shorts/swimsuit/trousers to The Missus for donation, as they’re too big for me now.

I’ve ordered a pair of olive green Dockers, and a grey and a green [short-sleeve shirt](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQ4VLXVH?th=1&psc=1). Might be here before irk tomorrow. Also, I ordered a new 110 g Frisbee (due Saturday).

Salmon pinwheels and steamed yellow squash will be dinner in a few minutes.

I had a three-piece suit around 45-50 years ago. Somewhere around here I still have the Prince Charlie coatee, dress shirt, lace jabot, &c, that I wore with my kilt.at my wedding. (FB friends can look at my “family pictures” album.) Have to lose 40-50 pounds before I can wear it again, though. Not to mention how strange it would feel wearing something other than jeans and a polo or henley.

Why not? 🥺

Not a bad close tonight, although who the heck orders a sausage’n’pineapple pizza? Jeebus.

Currently decompressing with you lovely folks, a preroll, and a kitty glued to my kneecap. Plan is to have a bit to drink, a bit more to smoke, strap Monks into his “I SEE YOU!” jacket so I can have the door open, and take out a bunch of trash, then roll the bin out. His litter box needs replacin’ almost as bad as { _political statement redacted_ }.

Well, now he is currently having the zoomies INSIDE the intended replacement litter box, so we’ll see how this goes.

Me! That sounds good. Of course, green pepper would make it better.
