I didn’t invade.
Woke up at 4:40 am with cold feet. I had kicked off the blanket in my sleep. I suppose I could have been be proud of the achievement as I had had a heavy blanket on top of me. And a gigantic headache. I don’t recomend starting the day this way. Couldn’t do much of anything around the house as I didn’t want to wake anyone. And at this hour, there was nothing I wanted to do on the internet
Got up, showered, and dressed. It’s important to do this in the right order. I also shampooed, It’s critical to live large every now and then.
I woke up super tired. Had a coffee drink. Then another, This is rare. Sliced onion, carrots, and potatoes. Put these ingredients and corned beef into two crock pots. Started the slow cooking
Picked up a friend. Then we went to the dentist for x-rays and teeth cleaning. I know! Fun.
Drove home. Got back just in time to invade Texas. What can I say? I love brisket.
But I fell asleep. When I woke, Texas’ invasion hours were over.
Sliced cabbage. Put cabbage in slow cookers. Slow cooked for another 45 minutes. (Not me, the food,)
The natives loved the corned beef meal.
Well, that’s enough excited for today. Must learn to pace myself.
Au revoir.
