Getting back on the straight and narrow (kinda)

4/23
I had to get up early today.  There was a funeral up at church that I, as a member not only of St. Mary's, but of St. Mary's Bereavement Committee, am attending.  There were more people there than we expected, but that falls in the category of 'pleasant surprise.'
After the funeral, since the family did not want a luncheon, my friend Beverly and I went up to Frisch's for a bite of lunch.  Since I figured this would be my big meal today, I had a pork tenderloin sandwich (with extra tomato) and french fries.  We sat there for quite a while, just talking and enjoying our meals.  We sat there for so long that I succumbed to temptation and got myself a strawberry piebaby!
I finally got home around 2:30, and, instead of doing the dishes or anything like that, I collapsed into my recliner.  What a wuss I am!  I do finally get up and get myself ready to walk when Ron texts, and he does so just as I get finished, so I scoot on out the door and start walking.  I actually make it to the curves, which I didn't think I'd do, since he didn't text until he was on 774 - silly man.

We got back home and that was just about it for the day.  We talked about supper, then both got into our recliners, and he decided that we should watch Starsky and Hutch.  Yep - for about 3 minutes.  I turned off the DVD and let him sleep, which he did for about 20 minutes, then woke up and went and made a bunch of noise out in the kitchen.  Next thing I knew, he was sticking a bowl of chicken noodle soup in front of me!  I think I'll keep him.  We then really watched Starsky and Hutch while eating our suppers - I don't know what he had made for himself, but he had something.

He eventually fell back asleep, and at 8:00, I turned Bones on.  After that, it was time for more dead guys.

Nothing planned for tomorrow - I should get the house ready for the weekend, but we'll see how I feel.


4/24
Oh, my!!  I do believe it's gonna rain (or something!) again!  My back is killing me this morning!
I woke up before 8 this morning, read a little bit, then finally let myself go back to sleep.  Ron texted me to see if I was up yet at 12:30 because he was worried that he hadn't heard from me yet.  Well, okay, Ron, I guess I'm up now!  Ha!  I just stayed in bed reading and tableting because I sure didn't feel like getting up.
I finally got up around 3:00 but I only moved into my recliner.  I ate two slices of Colby Jack cheese for my lunch and didn't really do a darn thing all afternoon.  When Ron texted me, I replied that I wasn't walking today.
When he and Corgan got here, they opened up the house (opened the back door so air would come through) and griped at me that it was hot in here.  Normal stuff.

We decided to go outside and sit by a fire and have "supper" out there, and that's what we did - roasted cheese weenies and marshmallows over the fire for our supper.   We had to make Corgan eat his, because he kept telling us that he "wasn't hungry."  But we became mean grandparents and made him roast his weenie. (teehee)
We came back in the house around 9 and Corgan took over the TV - big surprise, right - and Ron did his thing in his recliner and here I am.

Yay.

Final weigh-in for my Biggest Loser contest tomorrow.  Ron has to work, so Corgan and I will go to Crackhead Barrel for some chicken-n-dumplings afterward.  YUM!  Then we'll be visiting the Wals (Walgreen's and WalMart) on the way home, and after that, we'll have to see what the day holds.
