Good Morning. Take me out to the ballgame...Take me out to the crowd...Woohoo! It's baseball day. GO TEAM! Ods is coming back for a couple of days, so he'll pick up dinner. Dh's lunch will be garlic fries at the yard. What's on your menu? What is everyone up to today? ntsf, how is your hubby? I'm thinking of you both. Happy, cheerful, easy day for all!

No fish last night, we had Chinese instead. Quite the pivot!!
Maybe I will get my fish tonight...
Waiting on our shower to start demolition! Should be here soon, I will be calling this afternoon.

scrapmaven - enjoy your game! I have never been to a live baseball game, but I love when I get the chance to see my football (soccer as most of you call it) team live. I have had another quiet day today, but I am feeling better both from the jet lag and the lurgy I picked up somewhere on my travels. I tested yesterday and it’s not Covid, but I’ve had a dreadful cough and headache for a couple of days. I am hoping that by tomorrow I will be back to normal (or as normal as I ever am) and can get some things done around here. Dinner tonight is vegetarian stuffed peppers. I made them once before and DH liked them, so they’ll become part of our regular menu rotation.

sueg, I hope that you feel fine by tmw. Would you please share the recipe for the stuffed peppers? That sounds like dh food when our peppers are fresh this summer. scrappert, your new bathroom is gonna look great. If you do have your filet o' fish then you have my blessing. As long as I don't have to mop the lobby for 3 hours straight in the same place it's all good. My 5 day career at McDonalds ended that night. ntsf, I'm glad that you get to go on your cruise. Your dh can take a break from health issues and have some fun and so can you.

My first real job in HS was at McD's. I started on the grill and ended up in Drive Thru. I just remember it being so stressful! I think I lasted about 6 months.

Happy Wednesday!
I'm getting ready to pick up my orders at Total Wine and the grocery store. Yesterday was just trying to recuperate from travels. I ended up ordering Thai last night and was hoping to save some for lunch today but I was hungry and ate it for dinner.
Tonight, I think at least one of my parents will be coming over for dinner. I plan on making sloppy joes and fries. Easy after playing catchup at work.
Hope you all have a great day!

Big day today! Newcomer's is having a huge event at my sport's club. From 10:30 until 4. Complimentary neck/arm/hand massages from 10:30-11. Then a key-note speaker who is amazing. Then a box lunch ~ I'm having Chinese Chicken Salad. (I just realized that's what we're having for dinner, too!) Then 3 break-out groups, I'm going to chair yoga. I was going to regular yoga then realized I don't want to get down on a mat. Then several other things I'm signed up for. We also get a gift bag filled with fun stuff and a raffle for a $200 gift certificate to the spa next door. I have a 1 in 67 chance of winning! Have fun at the ballgame scrapmaven ! Meme is compliments of jeremysgirl .

Thank you sueg . That looks right up dh's alley.
Tearisci, have a productive day and enjoy dinner w/one or both of your parents.
cadoodlebug, what a fun day and great if you enjoy relaxing your muscles. I'll cross my fingers that you win the spa gift.

Take me out to the ballgame...Take me out to the crowd...Woohoo! It's baseball day. GO TEAM! YES! Have the very best time! Waiting on our shower to start demolition! I'd love to see pics when this is done. Anything you want to share about the choices you've made? We also get a gift bag filled with fun stuff and a raffle for a $200 gift certificate to the spa next door. I'd take that gift certificate in a hot minute. I feel like I could use a spa day right about now. I took a quick run into my office to have a chat with my friend James and to take him those ornaments I made him. He was thrilled with them. He is a vintage Christmas collector so I thought my granny crochet ornaments would go perfect with his collection. I'm back home now and I have a meeting here in half hour. We've been doing all the work on the camper. I'm going to scrub the walls today. There was a very sticky border I ripped off that needs some serious goo gone sprayed on it and washed off. And we picked up the paint last night. This weekend will be spent priming and painting. The counter guy is going to come next Tuesday so we've got to be ready to go. I will again try to make the asparagus/white bean/rice bowl. Yes, I know I'm not looking at the asparagus because I'm too afraid it's no good anymore and I'll have to pivot. Much better to just be surprised when it is time to actually make dinner. LOL!

I had breakfast with a former coworker this morning. She came to my house and we walked to the restaurant. Our breakfast turned into a 3 hour gab session!
The temp is a bit cooler today but still sitting on the deck. I refuse to go into the house because I’m cold. The sun is shining so that helps.
Tomorrow is DH’s cardiac surgery followup. My mom is coming to stay with Walker since the hospital is an hour drive.
Supper tonight is chicken burgers, pasta salad and beans.

Hi friends! Dinner tonight is (again) roast, potatoes, carrots, and whatever veggie DH picks (probably corn, knowing him). I had the joy of both an external and internal ultrasound this morning. I'm fairly convinced the internal ultrasounds are the devil's handiwork. They're just so awful. While I was trying not to writhe in pain and slide off the table, covered in goop and in my robe, I'm pretty sure I heard the doctor who did the ultrasound (the tech called her into to do it after they both reviewed the external one) said everything looked normal, so that's a plus. I have a follow up appointment with the office who requested the ultrasound in a few weeks. I also get to have an echocardiogram around the same time and I'd rather one of those than an internal ultrasound. sueg Thank you for sharing the recipe! DH is trying to eat healthier, and we both LOVE stuffed peppers. Maybe I'll suggest these! Sending hugs to all of you!

Hi all! Just a quick note...we are leaving to see grandson Zack play baseball for the 1st time today! Nick's appt was testerday...mixed news but I am taking it as a win. Best we can tell he had a fungal or bacterial infection (now probably gone) that has triggered severe asthma. We are trying a higher dose of a copd inhaler for a month to see if we can get the symptoms (which came back yesterday) under control. If not we will look at biologic injections. We were outside all day Mon...eclipse and then beach. And allergy conditions/pollen are high, so that may have kicked up the coughing and shortness of breath. We will both start on zyrtec for the season. So that's good...I have asthma too and it is treatable. We also have a referral to my rheumatologist bc a lupus marker came back positive, indicating something (not necessarily lupus) autoimmune may be going on, possibly explaining the sudden onset of symptims/inflammation. He also wants him to lose weight. The nodules they found are small enough for a wait and see, as I suspected, so we will have another CT scan in 6months. Big relief there. So that's where we are. Thank you all who have prayed and thought of us. I appreciate the support more than I can say.
Sending it right back to each of you. ❤️

Dinner plans have changed. Mom is going to Bingo at our local TexMex spot and dad is tired so I'm going to have steak and mac and cheese. I really wasn't looking forward to company so it worked out well for me.

tmarschall So glad to hear you got answers!! When DH had his really bad cold in February, they were concerned because it sounded like there was fluid around his heart (hello, medical anxiety for me!). Fortunately, the antibiotics took care of it. Allergy season is the woooooorst. I'm allergic to 5 different kinds of trees, so moving forward, I'll take Allegra from January-early June. The car was green this morning when we went out. But yay answers!! I hope that the autoimmune concern is something very manageable!

The Birdhouse Lady said: Last nights dinner of Mississippi Chicken was delicious!! Have you shared the recipe? Just got home from the event. Didn't win anything but came away with lots of good information and a good workout. There are group exercises that are new and the gal who led the workout session I went to has a class I think I'll sign up for. There were sessions for meditation, self-defense, mindfulness, yoga, Pilates, etc. Something for everyone ~ we got to choose 3. It was beautiful outside so we soaked up some sunshine outside by the pool during lunch.
