Necessary Mutilation

weight: 213.1 lbs.

Back to the grind today, huh? Blechhh. I had a nice long weekend, even longer than most, but would still kill for just one more day. We remain in the midst of a massive reorganization project and papers are scattered everywhere in the basement, and I’d love to finish one of these centuries. I have other project ideas once this is over, as well. At least this winter should pass quickly and I won’t let the fact that we aren’t out and about as much, go to waste!

As you can tell, I still have pretty good energy and a hankering to keep on the move. I am already beginning to look forward to this summer in a newer, slimmer, more funtional body. Just think of all that I can do then! Poor Tom!

Yesterday, Kevin did come over for a few hours and helped a lot with our persistent computer woes. Mostly, he set my new laptop up nicely with new security protection, and enabled it to print wirelessly, which any attempts others had made to do had failed. We also backed up my HD, and other stuff that bores and confuses me. But, since he was here, we didn’t head out nearly at all, except for two short visits to local thrift stores in our ongoing quest for shelving.

Hence, we also ate in, and I was in way better control than in previous days. My appetite has also subsided some, and I have less agitated energy. I hope this continues into the work week. We have no major plans except for on Friday night, when we plan to redeem the gift certificate I had won at a Chinese auction a few months ago. It is for four take out spaghetti dinners (!) at a local restaurant (Bings) that we have never been to before. I originally thought that it was for eat in meals, and only after we invited Tom’s compeer friend and his girlfriend to be our guests, did we notice that it was for take-out. Anyway, so we will entertain them here for the first time, and at least I won’t hafta cook or anything. But, spaghetti?! Yuk!   I will hafta supplement mine with more user friendly food than this, so I am actually glad that it is take out, so that I can. Perhaps I’ll eat the accompanying salad and meatballs. We’ll see….

Anyway, this is our newly boring life that allows me to ponder Friday dinner, on Tuesday. I’m just not sure if this is a good thing, or not!
