The world is my classroom....

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. About 50 degrees out there and sunny as all get out. I am doing laundry and going to bathe the Honey Badger. I just finished blanching and freezing 6 quarts of Brussels Sprouts that I picked up at a little nursery/produce market the next town over. I love those things. I'm going to make a recipe to go with dinner that is caramelized onions, garlic and Brussels Sprouts...and maybe the Irishman will try them and come to love them as well. Maybe. And if he doesn't, well then....more for me. Bahahahahahahahaha......
********************
I found a nice piece of material with which to make the Irishman's shirt today. It's a soft medium brown stuff--got it at a thrift store. I'm gonna give it the old college try. I didn't find much of anything else and so I came on home. My pecans arrived that I ordered from my neighbors church. The dogs are out basking in the sun. All is right with the world. I could use a nap. Was up at zero dark thirty and didn't go to bed until almost 2 AM...foolish girl...

Slept over 2 hours. I did some laundry, cooked a magnificent supper, went to a women's meeting, and now I'm back home again. It's getting cold outside and I'm ready to snuggle in for a nice long evening. I'm in my flannel jammies with my aqua blue fleece housecoat and my fuzzy socks, and ready to go. lol The Irishman is watching one of the National Treasure movies and the dogs are in various sleeping/playing poses around the living room. I had hoped to get the Honey Badger bathed today, but it'll have to wait until tomorrow. She needs a good going over, ears cleaned and scrubbed up good. She's going to love it, you can bet. *grin

My friend is in the hospital in Florida, suffering from a variety of age/tobacco maladies. God bless her...I hope she's going to be okay. She called an ambulance the day after Thanksgiving because she couldn't breathe. Apparently she'd been having problems for awhile, and kept ignoring it and hoping it would go away. Typical. lol I've been talking with her daughter and she's keeping me updated. It's making me think long and hard about the stuff that's going on with me...heart racing, a little short of breath and extremely tired. Damn. Getting old ain't for sissies, as a friend of mine always says.

Well, I'm gonna go hang with my baby and turn off this computer and try to get to bed at a decent hour.
What'da ya think?? It could happen.....
