[Can’t call this RTBTCKI]
Dec. 3rd, 2020 09:03 amI have a headache this morning-weather-or more specifically,a change in one, always does it to me and I already took some Advil which generally takes the edge off and coffee would help except..
Today I have to wait because my mom and I are doing Meals On Wheels today and we can’t make any pit stops save for Target.So I don’t make my coffee until I’m almost ready to leave the house and drink it the whole time I am doing Meals On Wheels.One of many things that I have made an adjustment to this year and there have been a lot of them.I’m amazed at how I have been able to adjust to things-wearing a mask ain’t no thing anymore..That’s why I don’t get people who refuse to wear masks(and refuse to get the vaccine when it becomes available).I have been living with my parents(with occasional overnights at my house) and that took a lot of adjusting to.And it’s going to take adjusting *again* when I go back to living at my house permanently.) One of the things that has come out of this that I love is that to keep things interesting so every week, my mom and I will make a menu for dinner every night of the week.We don’t always stick to it(things come up and we go in a different direction which is fine with me)
We’ll have days when we do our own thing, or we don’t have anything specific written down .Like I said,I am more than fine with that. Yesterday we had fish tacos which I was worried about everything coming together in time and having too much to do..and it was fine.I had everything ready to go(and I had some help too) and it tasted really good(it’s one of our go-to meals, along with breakfast for dinner (which we used to do when I was a kid..this is a new take on it.)Also, since we’re in autumn (getting closer and closer to winter every day) soup is a weekly(sometimes twice weekly in the case of this week) thing and I am not complaining.The soup my mom made at the start of the week was a Colombian chicken soup(except my mom got turkey instead of chicken-already shredded up for putting in whatever-in the soup and it was GOOD. BTW using the shredded chicken from the deli is NOT a short cut.Use it all the time and it’s great.)
