Tuesday Stuff

Another Tuesday has come and is almost gone as I type this. Since I posted my Sunday Dinner not a lot has happened, but since I know you're all just mesmerized with my exciting happenings I'll just recap my Sunday through today.

For my Sunday Dinner I went with my sisters, Ducky and Cecil to a local Mexican restaurant for lunch. We went with our pastor and his family and several of our friends from church and it was very good. I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the good company. My sisters and I came back here to my apartment until time to leave for church that evening. Jessica brought Lamar home just as we were getting ready to leave but Emmy was tired and fussy so Jessica left her in the car with Jason and didn't stay to visit. I didn't get to see Emmy Sunday but if all goes as planned Lamar and I will ride the Sr. Citizen's van to see her on Thursday.Monday Cecil and Sue came up for the day and brought Chinese for dinner. As soon as we finished eating I got busy making 5 dozen yeast rolls for our ladies' meeting at church Monday night. Not all of the rolls were for the meeting. I had to make extra for cook's samples and so we all could have some hot out of the oven with butter. The weather was just right and they rose faster than usual but I still had to boogie to get 3 batches done in only 5 hours. They were good if I do say so myself.

The picture up there is not from the rolls I made Monday but from some I made a while back. They were from my recipe and Monday's rolls look much the same.

The recipes for my homemade yeast rolls and cinnamon rolls are on my Recipe Blog and can be found HERE if anybody would like to make them.On Tuesday Cecil and Sue were here again and brought chicken for lunch along with some side dishes. They brought fried chicken, chicken breast strips, popcorn chicken and hot wings, which are my favorite. They also brought tater logs, potato salad and macaroni salad and for dessert, lemon cake and cream cheese Danish. It was good and they had plenty left over to take home for their supper.

Today I paid for kneading 3 batches of yeast dough and standing on my feet making yeast rolls all yesterday afternoon. My arthritis is giving me fits. My left hand and arm is very unhappy with me, not to mention my knees, feet and legs. I spent all afternoon in my recliner today and Cecil and Sue commandeered the couch.

We watched TV part of the afternoon and the insides of our eyelids the rest of the time. The sisters who happened to be awake made fun of the ones who were sleeping with their mouth wide open or snorting and waking themselves up. It was great sport. You really should try it sometime.I'm sure you've gathered that I haven't done much cleaning and sorting here in my computer room/spare room since my last post. I did get all my laundry done except for a couple of loads of towels and a few loads of odds and ends but I'm going to start on those after I get this posted.

Lamar and I are riding the Sr. Citizen's van Wednesday morning to Jonesboro to get a few groceries and just get away from home a bit. I need some bread and things along that line. After we get home I'll probably do some work here in the computer room.

One of the main things I'd like to get done is turning on my old computer and checking the files for things I may want to copy, then breaking it down and putting it away in the closet for the time being. I know, I'm a pack rat. But if something happens to this computer I'd have to go back to my old one. I just can't get rid of that old computer. Yet. Maybe soon, but not right now.

I have some major decisions to make as to what I really want and need and what I need to just close my eyes, bite the bullet and toss or give away. It's not really hard work, it's just mentally challenging. But I will persevere, no matter how long it takes.

I think we're all caught up now. It's almost 10 pm and I still want to get a couple of loads of laundry done. I'll be back in a day or so to keep you informed of the continuing events of my exciting life. Bless your hearts. ;-)
