Day 5

Definitely realizing we're tired. We got lost in Atlanta and ended up near Marietta instead of Decatur and wouldn't make it back down in time for Jackie's appt.  We rescheduled. 

Time to get some rest and food. 

I made chops and eggs for brunch - it wasn't bad.  Simple but hearty food.

I'm working on presents for David and family. We have the gifts that you bought for Lynn and Jerry and will send those out this weekend or Monday. 

Today is just a down day, Ma. We're missing you like crazy and the bodies are refusing to do much other than getting the kitchen clean (of course).

The cats are unhappy I'm not giving them canned food but they'll have to adjust. We're giving Holly and Darcy half a can each, our oldest babies.

Someone sent us a cheese and cracker gift box but there's no name on the box as to who it's from. We're thinking probably Polly and Jules.

Missing you, Mama.

My speciality. I found this recipe in an unusual book in my senior year in highschool and we gave it a try. I've adapted it over the years (reducing the paprika so we aren't reaching for a pitcher of water or milk like Jonathan Harker was). This works well with just breasts or thighs or whatever combo you'd like.  The sauce is fantastic on eggs the next morning too.

Becoming Mom - part whatever

Okay, instead of hand sewing something as I normally would, I used the machine. The design works, the stuff for the project doesn't.  We need bigger pipe insulation. We're making drafty door blockers and the insulation is too small since we ripped out the carpets. So, first foray into sewing with a machine in a long time went well but the project is stalled until tomorrow or Friday.
