Back at irk and I’m happy to be here. Then the nursing home hospice where my brother is can’t find me, and the bank can’t find me since they have cluster f***** my refinance and I told Ian last night at 8:30 “if you don’t sort this out I will not be closing with Chase.”
I actually had wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas Days visits and dinners with friends. I still haven’t ever made death chikken so I will do that for New Year’s. Christmas morning I had 4 pieces of bacon, 2 eggs fried in the bacon grease, and an English muffin with REAL butter. Best meals I’ve had in months.
It’s foggy with a predicted high in the mid 30s. I thought about getting my car washed on the way to irk but it was still in the low 20s and I figgered it would be a popsickle.
RE: Death Chikken. How many snerk breasts fit in the pan?
Wetone that would depend on the size of the dish you’re using. Also, whether or not the <snerk> breasts <snerk> are boneless or bone in. I use chikin thighs for death chikin cause I think it’s better with dark meat. I can get eight medium sized bone in thighs in a three quart casserole.
Ok, get on over hear OYKW! Da bear is commencin’ to get hongry!
I use thighs instead of breasts too. It just seems to have more flavor. I also sort of pre-crisp the bacon a little before lining the bottom of the pan with it. I only do it that way because my husband likes it better that way.
Today prime rib stock for deeeeeeeeeelicious soup making will ensue. First, I need to wake up more. I was awake at 2:00, then 3:00, then 3:30, then 4:00, and 4:30. Finally, I drifted off to sleep for about two hours, but kept waking up after that as well. I finally gave up and got up at 8:00.
I can’t believe it’s already Friday. This week has flown by. I’ve been off work since Tuesday and that’s why. Monday I’ll have to face the hell that is work.
peedin, I sure hope the bank refi thing gets squared away.
There are days when I wonder if I have lost my mind
and there are days when I am sure I have lost my mind
but I happy to announce today that I have only half lost my mind, or lost only half my mind which probably isn’t the same thing at all.
The problem with minds is that they think and when you try to think about things that think you get caught up in a mental loop that does nothing but make you loopy.
Today is probably not a good day to try to do my taxes.
It might be a good day to try to sign up for obamacare again.
I was disappointed to find that my nice box of chocolate truffles is only 40% chocolate, the other 60% being the abomination called white chocolate.
I
Don’t care for chikken thighs so I’ll do with chicken <snerk> breasts <snerk>. And Sari, please send me your unwanted white chocolate. It would be welcome at home home and in my tummy.
The new place we tried is nuttin’ to write home about. Food was ok. We won’t be puttin’ that on the list of places we must go to eat. This comin’ from two folks who go to places of haute cuisine such as Three Squares Diner.
You can have all the white chocolate Wet One, just let me know where to send.
They are cute, like little cupcakes in cupcake flavors.
I finished my taxes, of course they aren’t really done until I have reviewed them at least two times more. I have to bop on out to the truck and get the mileage as well. I know about what it is.
I’m not happy with what I have to pay but I’m glad the penalty is only $5 for not filing quarterly as I should. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to dip into my house fund but at least it’s only a little dip.
I’m glad I broke the drive up into 2 days - it made a huge difference. Ziva and Taz are being mega-attention-whores. It’s almost time to feed Higgs. I need to feed me, too - pizza perhaps??
I’m getting ready to go sit with piddlepup.
It’s been a boring aggravating day for me. I feel like i haven’t done a thing even though I have done quite a bit.
Pizza Hotline will be bringing supper because I just don’t feel like cooking tonight. Taz is driving me crazy - I’m guessing he was lonely.
Tomorrow, I will attack the disaster area that is the green bedroom. I foresee a trip to the local thrift store to rehome some items. Tonight, tho, I will veg. mostly.
Had a nice trip, aside from the evil drive back- 3.5 hours according to Google maps, nearly 7 hours according to today’s traffic and horrid wind. Cousin with kids was there, with the babbeh getting bigger in predictable manner, and even my other cousin showed up for a bit (he’s got issues, and I’ve not seen him in the past 2 years). Ver’ tired now, and having an early night 'cos I’m working tomorrow.
I should get back to work on music stuff. I worked yesterday on the piece of music I was writing, then decided to throw out much of the section I had just written. Ah well, such is life.
**swampy **- Higgs is certainly glad to be out of the car, and she and Taz have rassled in reunion. She’s crashed on the back of the love seat at the moment - all tuckered out!
And I’ve had me some pizza and salad, with enough pizza left over for breakfast… and lunch.
