Church, lunch, football. A Sunday in Fall.

Sunday, October 26, 2014


I woke up at quarter til 9 this morning, which is good, because the alarm goes off at 9.  I can't believe that I beat the alarm on a Sunday morning - that's one for the books!  I got myself into the shower, and believe it or not, when I got out, the alarm was in the bedroom blaring away.  I don't know why Ron did not turn it off, but he didn't.  Men!  I marched in there, dripping wet, and slapped Snooze, then marched back to the bathroom to dry off.  (And, yes, he was laying there in the bed staring at me as I did so.)
I got myself dried, then brushed my teeth and did all I could to waste time in the bathroom before going back in the bedroom, but I still got back in there before the alarm went off again.  I then lotioned and dressed and got ready for the day.  I wore my new T-shirt today - the one with the Bengals football helmet in the shape of Ohio - but I had to wear a long-sleeved shirt under it.  It was a bit chilly this morning, although the sun was shining.
I had a bit of an upset stomach, but thought that, with time (and food), it would take care of itself.

After church, we went to Amelia and had lunch at Campbell's Barn.  Ron had the mushroom-n-Swiss burger with onion rings, and I had the bacon cheeseburger with fries that I usually get.  As we passed my brother's place, I texted my sister-in-law and tried to get them to come join us, but he was a buttmunch and was convinced he'd miss the game if he did.  Silly boy - doesn't he know that we AIM to  be home to watch the game?  I aggravated him for a bit, and am going to do my best to talk him into meeting us next week!  We shall see.
As usual, though, when we go to Amelia, I missed kickoff.  I got home about quarter after 1.
After that, it was football and texting Josh all day.  We had a great fun day, what with him being such a Ravens fan, and me with my Bengals.  I think we were both on the edge of our seats!  It was a very good game, but I ended up happier than he did!
I did have to take antacids because I still had that upset stomach, but I'm not gonna stress about it.  It happens every now and then.  It just isn't very comfortable.
I only missed 3 games all day, less than both Josh and Ron, but I have NO chance of winning the pool this week.  Bummer.  That would have been nice - and a big help!

My stomach still isn't right, but I made myself a bowl/can of chicken noodle soup - super duper hot - and ate that for my supper.  I'm ready for it to be halftime of this night game, so I can go to bed!  It's an action-packed game, though!

Putting my food in MFP, I was not surprised to be way over - as in 150 calories - on my calorie count.  And that's on the 1200 calories, not just the 1000.  No exercise whatsoever on a Sunday, so I got no help in that department.  Ah, well.  Sunday is only one day of the week.


OH - I also found out today that one of my friends suffered a hemorrhagic stroke last night, was taken to the hospital, then transferred to a hospital downtown (for surgery).  They then decided that the surgery would be fatal, so it was decided against, and as soon as the family has gathered, she will be taken from all breathing apparatus and it will be in God's hands.  Please pray (send good vibes, thoughts, whatever you do) for peace for Donna, and comfort for Jeanne, her daughter, and the rest of the family.  Thanks.
