A relaxing Sunday...and back to the grind

10/5

A normal Sunday - church, lunch, football.  Only difference was that my Bengals were the Sunday NIGHT game this week.
I was very tempted to turn off the alarm and sleep a bit more, but in the end (thanks to the alarm on my cell phone), I didn't, and we got up, got showered, dressed, and out of the house on time.  After church, we went down to Amelia for our lunch.  We went to Campbell's Barn, where Ron got - gasp! - a Mushroom and Swiss burger with fries, and I got the bacon cheeseburger with fries that I like.  We didn't rush because it didn't really matter if I missed the beginning of football or not.  I enjoy watching football, but I don't have to watch every minute if it's not my Bengals.
We got home, and it was football for the rest of the day.  It was a nice relaxing day, until the night game - which, as you know, was my Bengals.  Well, they played so terribly that it was so bad on my nerves and that I was just so MAD, so pissed that they played the way they did - what they did wasn't working and they didn't change anything.  It was awful!  But, finally, the game was over and they got thoroughly stomped (which they deserved).


10/6

Today started as my days usually do, except even with going to bed late, and then reading before falling asleep, I woke up at 8:30!  EIGHT THIRTY!  I guess I slept pretty deeply to wake that early - I thought for sure I wouldn't wake up until 11 or noon, but, no, it's 8:30.  Geez! I laid there and read until after 11 when I got up.
I went right into Happy Homemaker mode, doing up the weekend dishes and piddling around here in the living room getting things picked up.  I finally got on the pute and ate my lunch - a sausage, egg, and cheese muffin - and worked on getting all the pictures from Saturday captioned.  Man, what a job!
Ron, believe it or not, came home at quarter til 4.  I hadn't even done my exercises yet, let alone ready to get dressed and be ready for when he texted that he was on his way home.  So - no walking today, which in a way was good, because it has rained and rained and rained all day long.  But, wow, quarter til 4.  Amazing.  I'm not ready for his winter hours to start already!
I went ahead and did my exercises, because he went out into the garage to piddle around since he was home in the daylight.  I made him his shredded cabbage dish for supper, and I put smoked sausage in it this time.  I cut two lengths of the sausage for me, for my supper, and I had the sausage, along with orange tomatoes and a green pepper for my supper.  Josh had stopped and got some vegetables from Bert for us, and that's where those came from.  He stopped long enough to drop them off, and let us know that Ron has a chance in the football pool tonight (keep your fingers crossed!), then he headed on home.
I had been noshing on candy corn off and on all day, so I claimed those for my snack when I went in MFP tonight, and I ended up less than 50 calories short for the day.  Yay, me.  Even with no walking, I was glad to see that.

Tomorrow, I will probably go up and help with setting up the Rummage Sale at church.  I haven't really decided yet, I may wait until Wednesday.  It will depend on how my back feels, and the weather.
Right now, we are having thunder.  Not really a thunderstorm, but definitely some thunder rolling!
