Trading veggies for eggs

 


Sunday

I got up after 8. No RLS, just couldn't get comfortable. I followed the morning list, then took a shower. I raked the shady part of the lawn. At noon, I came in and made and ate breakfast.

Jenni called to tell me that the church was cold and I should bring a coat. I got dressed and went to the church with cheese squares. I forgot a coat, but when we started singing the praise songs, I went into hot flashes and needed my hand fan the entire time.

I did not get cold listening to the sermon, or playing hymns at the end. The chaplain added communion after the hymns. Then we chatted and I took my cheese squares – which no one ate – and went home.

I picked up a bag with a squash, two small zucchini and a round cucumber, and met Jordan at the church off post. I gave her the bag and she gave me two dozen eggs. Then I went to the Clark's house to drop off a bag of items that people left behind - items I thought they would want. No one was home, so I went home.

I ate bananas and a grapefruit. Then I changed clothes and went outside to finish raking. I mowed that side yard, then did some raking on the other side. I mowed part of it.

I moved the potted tomatoes to the sunniest side of the house. Now that the sprinklers are off, they should be ok there. I refilled the water jugs and went inside for supper.

Since the eggs took such a long time to cook in the toaster oven, I decided to scramble them in a fry pan. I put the chunks of squash in as well. But as I moved the eggs around, the squash fell out of solution and the eggs cooked in chunks.

I ate while reading e-mail and messages. I pieced puzzles online. I posted to my blog. I read messages, then watched the rest of a Call the Midwife episode. I put the first CD o a book on the CD player, then climbed into bed to fall asleep listening to it.
