aKathy's What's for Dinner 10/10

I am feeling pretty good today ... my new guy has been in constant contact with me through phone and text while he is in Las Vegas!  We really like each other!    

Today I need to grab a few groceries and that's about it ...

I might watch the Menendez brothers documentary that just came out on Netflix this week ... it's different from the other series ...

Dinner is up in the air ...

Good afternoon,
It has been a dismal day here in the Süd Tirol! Luckily, we came here to relax, not sightsee, so we’ve done just that. I had a massage before lunch and DH has been reading and catching up on TV.
There is a wine tasting presented by a local vintner at our hotel this evening, for the hour before dinner. We’ll pop down for that, then dinner itself is Tirolean themed and it looks good - 6 small courses and a salad buffet.
The weather looks to be clearing, so hopefully we’ll be able to get out tomorrow - the newsletter in our room on arrival says there is a market near the train station, about a 15 minute walk, in the morning.

I slept for a solid 8 1/2 hours last night ~ I was exhausted. I have a short appointment with the audiologist today. I finally got a call from the hearing aid department and have an appointment on 12/20 so I'll be getting hearing aids for Christmas.

Dinner will be rechauffe of ham, macaroni salad, crunchy vegetable salad, sweet potato casserole, fruit salad and cheesecake for dessert.

Big hugs for everyone at the table!

I just finished the documentary and I thought it was a good watch after the Ryan Murphy series. They did a very good job at casting. 

Hey all - no idea what's for dinner. Just plugging along. Fake it til you make it right?

Woke up worked out, got ready for my hair appointment and look at my text that says appointment is 10/10 at 11:30 not at 10:10 like I had in my mind. Do I picked up and did a little laundry.

Dh is talking about dinner out but I’m planning on going to TJs after my hair so I’ll be prepared to cook if need be.

austnscrapaddict I hope her sil is ok after this.

I hate that it's on Amazon. We can watch but not record.

Let's see ... 

He's 50 ... 6'1" ... balding ... has a terrible sense of style!    .     (I'll work on that!)

He lives 12 minutes from me ... has a 9 year old son that he co-parents with his ex ... they are on good terms which is great!

He has two very large dogs ... I love dogs!

He treats me like gold and that's the most important thing!   

Hi everyone. Thinking of all with some struggles. Today is a day off for me. Dd3 popped over last night and spent the night and is working remotely today from our house. She met someone who lives about 2 hours away from her and I am in between. They have a date tonight so she’s leave here after work to see him. Last weekend he went her way. At the moment I am trapped in my room as she has an important video meeting and decided the kitchen was the best place for it rather than my office I’m not using. Oh well.

Dinner tonight will be a new recipe- slower cooker white chicken chili. But I need dd’s meeting to end so I can get it going in the slow cooker. lol I’ll make cornbread probably to go with it. We will eat it while we watch Thursday night football- go hawks.

I’m doing pretty well but my job is a lot. I actually considered going back to my old job (same agency) when there was an open position on the team and my precious supervisor reached out to me and said it was mine if I wanted it. There’s pluses and minuses to both for sure. I’m going a good job at my new job, but it’s just *a lot* and I don’t feel it’s worth it for my stress levels sometimes. But it is basically 99% remote which is really Important to me and my old job, while remote, has a fair bit of traveling as well and I really don’t want to do that anymore as traffic is horrible (I moved farther away from where I need to be for that job). So I’ll just stick this out some more - it has gotten better - but managing people is a lot.

Popping in for an update from Linda. The girls made it through the storm safe and didn’t even lose power.

I just ate my last cone of pecans from Buc-ee's last night. It was delicious! I got a veggie burrito the last time I went through one. It was very good!

Hi does anyone have any good dinner ideas? I am not eating keto until the new infection goes away. Maybe chicken breast, fresh corn, tomatoes, cucumber and coleslaw and a yellow carrot? That does seem reasonable.

(( hugs )) to everyone who needs 'em!


It's great to hear that Linda 's and naby64 's families are ok!

leannec ....Oooh, I'm so happy for you...he sounds great!

I had a bone density scan Tues, and was unhappily surprized that it hurt to lie the way that was required.
I was wincing in pain, but thankfully, the test doesn't take very long. 

That reminds me, jeremysgirl ---you asked a few days ago if you should get a bone scan due to your sister's
rheumatoid arthritis, and I really don't know. I have no idea how RA relates to bone density, I
only know it can be VERY painful. I hope your sister is on good medication and not suffering.

Oh man, I have yet ANOTHER headache starting, so I need to get off the computer. Alllll
the other joints are starting to hurt, too. I neeeeed to exercise/ stretch, get the ice packs
and the T.E.N.s unit out and hope  all the pain decreases.  Good times.

well, dh is coming home today and my breakfast with my friend didn't work out. not a big deal.
I have leftovers chicken, toast, and salad for dinner.
got to the store, and called verizon.. and 30 min later, got a charge reversed and a bunch of "ghost" lines taken off.. so that was a success.

cleaning and laundry and not working too hard.

I knew someone who was wholesale dealer in fish.. and he bought fish at costco. so good luck karenlou.

hope the day goes better for everyone!!
