Saturday's Post (a little late)

I must apologize for the lateness of this post. Unfortunately Caley (I assume) got behind the computer and disconnected 6 plugs. I tried to fix it but ultimately ended up calling my Administrator as I could not connect to the Internet. He explained how I got into the weeds and now we are good to go!

Anyway...

I woke up at 7:10 AM on Saturday, but stayed, snug and warm under the covers until almost 8:00 when my Muse called me to the computer and my writing. My Muse's name is Bouche, BTW (that's a Foodie joke, LOL!)

I finished up the rather lengthy Blog entry and then put on a pot of coffee. It was 14 degrees here with a predicted high of 22 degrees (the 10 mile an hour North wind makes it feel like 1 degree, but I won't mention wind chill as neither B___ nor Jake believe in that). Also, after Amy's comment, I suppose I can't solicit much sympathy, but let's review the highs and lows of our various other weather sites today:

Richmond, VA (Lu and Sadie) Partly Cloudy 38� / 18�
Charlotte, NC (my daughter Melissa and Dave) Partly Cloudy 37� / 18�
Rogers, MN (my daughter Amy and her Carl's) Fair 11� / -1�
Port Huron, MI (my son Jeremy) Light Snow 21� / 10�
Calgary, Canada (my friend Canada Cathy) Mostly Cloudy 34� / 26�

So, once again Amy wins (or loses) in the cold weather contest. And, it's pretty obvious, moving South won't help you this year. Thank God I don't drink Florida orange juice!

The cats now awake, I stripped the bedding and started the weekend wash. Then I, sipping coffee, started thinking about some breakfast. So, I made myself an egg sandwich (actually two of them). I scrambled the eggs and then, while they were resting, topped them with two slices of American cheese. I had toasted two slices of bread and when they were done, I slathered them with mayonnaise. I put half the eggs and cheese on the bread, added a little salt and ate them watching TV. When I was finished with that sandwich, I repeated the process and ate the other one.

I started the final load of laundry and made my bed up. I finally got into the shower after 11:00 PM!

I took out some hamburger to thaw, having a vague idea of making a shepherd's pie. Then I watched a movie and took a long nap.

I was not inspired about making dinner, so I put the thawed hamburger in the fridge. Instead, I ate cheese and crackers for dinner and went to bed early.
