How did it become one o’clock already? Time flies when you are lying around in your bed doing a lot of nothing! But there are big plans in store for the day. Big. Plans.
What, you may ask, are those big plans? Well, that would be telling, wouldn’t it. You’ll just have to follow along in this blog and see what great, huge things transpired for me on this most Sunday of Sundays.
So, my teeny fib was that I really didn’t have big plans for the day. In fact, I didn’t really have any special plans for the day at all. Just the same old Sunday stuff that I seem to do every Sunday when I am here. And I did them all!
Yes, I showered and made my bed. I now have a good routine for bed making – I watch a news show on YouTube and make my bed at the same time. I think it takes me maybe 5 minutes to strip and then remake the bed. Call me Mr. Efficient Bed Maker guy. All those years of making beds has come in handy. I also, eventually, took a shower. It’s not that I don’t like being clean. I do like being clean. But I also don’t like having to climb into a tub to take a shower. So, on the agenda for this year or next, my next big project (besides the roof whenever that happens) is to change the tub in the blue bathroom into a walk in shower. I think I can store the tub in the barn. Hmm. Maybe the barn still needs to be a priority. Speaking of which, I asked JM how much it might cost to double the size of the barn, but he never got back to me. I’ll bug him about it again later in the month. It is about time for us to have another of our half hour catch-up sessions. And I’m guessing it is going to be $30k. Sigh.
Since I was making beds and cleaning myself, I also did a load of laundry. The unfolded pile sits and glares at me as I type this. But it will get attention after I have published this most exciting of blogs. Just you wait, evil laundry, just you wait!
And I had sort of planned to make waffles in the afternoon and not at dinner as part of the dinner set up. But that didn’t happen. So I made them sort of concurrently with the other breakfast items. I planned to make Eggs Augustus – a poached egg, on a waffle (half a waffle actually) and a slice of regular bacon, topped with hollandaise sauce. (I had to run down and put the rest of the sauce in a container and in the refrigerator before I forgot – no time except the present – or something like that…) I also cooked up some maple sausage links. But no bread and no hash browns. This time. Maybe next time. Still tasty!
And now we are all caught up. Oh, does anyone else use long johns as a substitute for PJs during the winter. I find it easier to do that than get out a pajama bottom (I have one – thank you JSRBM) and some sort of shirt.
