aKathy's What's for Dinner 8/13

Happy Tuesday!

It's kind of a crazy day around here. My mom is still in the hospital (thanks for asking scrapmaven) and she may be coming home today but she's very confused. She kept telling the nurses she had to wake my dad up and tried to get out of bed to get him. My sister is up with her now and she's a little less confused and even joking about it, but she said it seemed so real that she was at home. 

I'm taking my dad to a dr appointment at lunchtime and then probably up to the hospital if she doesn't come home today. 

Not sure what dinner will be tonight. I've got to go pick up a grocery order this morning. Someone mentioned sloppy joes on the thread yesterday and that sounded good. I've also got chicken to use. Lots of options. 

Hope you all have a great day!

I'm going to AquaFit this morning. We ended up taking a long walk last night instead of going to the pool.

Crazy Rummy was fun but we found out one of our players was in a bad accident and is in the hospital with multiple fractures.

Dinner will be Salmon with the usual sides.

And also to find out the weather:

Happy Tuesday dinner friends!

Tearisci I hope your mom continues to get the help she needs, I'm glad it isn't worse for her. Hugs for you in handling her care and helping your parents.

@scrapmave enjoy your new game and enjoy the time with your ODS.

stormsts I went to Purdue and have a nephew that lives in Lafayette. I haven't been there in a few years though.

Our neighborhood is having Google Fiber installed and today is my street's turn. It's noisy and a lot of traffic. I have an important call at 3, I hope it's moved on by then.

DH will be home later today or tomorrow, I still need to make that grocery run. Dinner is undecided at this point. I'm leaning toward thawing some ground beef and making burger bowl/ salad, or maybe a baked sweet potato.

Wishing everyone a great day!!

I'm picking my mum up in a little while and we are going downtown to the school board offices so that I can pick up my "retirement gift".  

I didn't attend the retirement banquet months ago because I wouldn't have known anyone ... I'm not a "joiner" ... the gift I chose is a bluetooth speaker ... no idea if I will use it but we'll see ...

Anyway, gotta pick it up - they keep bugging me ...

The rest of the day is free ... like most of my days!   

No idea what dinner will be ...

I'm having an off day. Woke up about an hour later than usual and feel tired, so have given up on the idea of a walk today. Hoping a shower will help shake the fog out of my brain.

I am meeting a girlfriend for lunch and have 3 stores to hit for returns before or after, depending on how quickly I get moving. Two are for clothes I ordered online so I didn't have to try on in the store and could get the sizes I thought I needed. With one order, all of it is going back. I'm a little frustrated that my wardrobe is 98% leggings and tanks/t-shirts right now and can't find pants that I like and fit. The other 2% of my wardrobe is a couple casual dresses picked up to wear after the abdominal surgery but I'm not really a dress person. I really want to get back to wearing nice jeans and tops. Not only am I tired, I'm whiny. 

Since I'm going out for lunch, I'm calling for a fend for yourself dinner night. 

The big excitement at the pool this morning is that a duck flew into the pool. Poor thing must have mistook the pool for the lake that is 50 feet away. Oops. This is the first time I've gone on a Tuesday so it was a new-to-me instructor and I really liked her. 55 minutes instead of 45 and she had us moving the entire time. It was chilly this morning, in the 60's when we got in the pool!

Today is our 36th wedding anniversary! We went for a 30 km bike ride and then out for lunch. We both had a grilled chicken club on a soft panini bun and it was delicious.

The weather is perfect today - sunny and hot but no humidity. Love it!

Not sure about supper yet.

Happy Anniversary!!!

Tearisci. Have them check her for UTI. This happened to my mother a few years ago. It was very scary because she couldn’t remember getting out of bed or if she took her meds that morning. And that was I think she was like 74 at the time because it was a while ago.

Tearisci I'm glad her confusion is better. Oh no, you don't want both of them ill at the same time. Shake Shack is tasty!

cadoodlebug now I just ask Alexa what time it is.

sueg yay for being able to go home.

karenlou have you heard of tuffy tire liners.  It helps with preventing punctures.

taylortroop Happy anniversary!!

Quiet day today.  I did not get as much done as I should as I took a nap due to several nights of insomnia and early rising to walk the pupper.  Spent a long time on the phone with Aetna.  DS is liking his new job which makes me happy. Tonight is rechauffe.

I don’t get the popcorn reference lol. Why would you yell it?

Hmm. Never heard that before.
