Busy Day!

I managed to get through a lot of notifications today. That was my plan for the lazy morning that did not happen. I still got a fair amount tackled. We made our appointment in time for me to run by mom's pharmacy and for me to go do a house check on our home in Baton Rouge. We were still a few minutes early for our appointment and got to go right on in! The meeting went well and we should be proceeding with plans. I picked up Chinese food for dinner and everyone enjoyed it. I especially enjoyed not cooking dinner because I was getting tired and everyone came home starving today. I have been doing more notifications and have to say have most caught up. I've been working both sides; the old ones and the new ones. I feel better about them now and don't have a whole week's work of notifications sitting and waiting for me. I'll be turning in early tonight (I think) so will catch up with everyone sometime tomorrow. Photo: Pixabay, public domain

We're having TV dinners tonight as we've been out all day and need to process photos tonight.

That is a quick and easy meal! What are the photos of? Hobby or you do photography work?

@JudyEv That sounds like fun! Best of luck with it. It's always fun and exciting to make a bit of extra money from doing something you enjoy!!

@kareng We've been taking photos at horse endurance rides and now we're starting to sell a few. It's a hobby really.

Chinese sounds good; and no clean-up sounds better.

I understand very well that you are not in the mood of cooking after a busy day. I also like Chinese food.

@LadyDuck My thoughts exactly! I brought home some fried chicken, but it wasn't very good. I figured it would be another choice since game was coming on and I'm not cooking today.

I always enjoy eating out specifically for the benefit of not having to cook. If you've ever eaten my cooking, you would understand! haha

Well at least you know it isn't the best. My hubby is in denial on that. He thinks he cooks well. When the kids were little and he would cook, they would make excuses not to eat; I'm not hungry, I'll eat later. LOL.

@kareng There's no denying I'm a bad cook! At least in the kitchen. Put me out in the woods with a campfire, and I will cook you a masterpiece. I have no idea why I can cook well over a campfire, but can't cook worth a damn in the kitchen.

It's a good feeling to get the notifications caught up. I'm glad you were able to go right in when you arrived and everything is going well. I'm sure the Chinese take out was good with as tired as you were when you got home.

@just4him Yes, but he is not in good favor today after waking me up around 6:20 with it pouring down rain outside and telling me, "You need to get up and go get groceries." No, not in pouring rain and not before the sun comes up!!! GRRR!

I slept well until my hubby started trying to wake me up at 6 am with pouring rain to go grocery shopping. Around 7 I told him to leave me alone, that I was not going grocery shopping in pouring rain. I got up at 9 and hoping the rain has blown over.

@kareng Mine knows not to wake me. The dogs and cats even know not to wake me except in an emergency. And in the rain would be even worse.

@wolfgirl569 I had mentioned last night that I wanted to get the grocery shopping done in the morning but I didn't mean before dawn. LOL. I will keep my mouth shut from now on.

@crazyhorseladycx That is true. Demand increases sales and that should lower the price. But the stores take advantage and raise the prices. And you know they get lower prices with bigger orders.

@kareng no ma'am, lackin' that danged tapioca flour. the price 'f such's tripled since my last purchase. there's perks to havin' so many folks goin' paleo, gluten free'n all that, more stores carry the raw goods needed. the con'd be they then feel 'tis 'lright to escalate the prices 'f such.

I had Thai food tonight. It does feel great to take a break from cooking and washing dishes.

I haven't eaten Thai food since I was working. We had lots of international visitors when we were in our old building and got to know a few of them. We would do a departmental Thanksgiving dinner and I always enjoyed trying all the international dishes.
