akKathy's whats for dinner? 1/26

How long are you staying in Houston this time? I think knitting sounds great.



Oh, no! I know you need more sleep than that. I hope you can rest some more.

I am having a very slow day at work. I'm fine with that.

It's actually going to be very decently warm this week. Might even make it to 40 degrees on Thursday! Will feel like spring out there.

My mom made some roast beef funeral sandwiches a few weeks ago and Jeremy just loved them, loved them. So he's asked me to recreate them tonight with au jus for dipping. He's very excited about this dinner.

Happy Monday! We are in for a rainy week. Had 3.5" yesterday at my house and some expected daily until Saturday. Good thing I didn't bother to have the sprinkler system turned back on yet as it won't be needed.

Today I need to pick up a couple of belts that I had shortened. They were a Christmas gift from DH & DD that DD ordered from a favorite shop in Florence (so no returns/exchanges!). Then I have an appointment with a therapist who is hopefully going to get rid of my vertigo. The ENT I saw last week referred me to them. Fingers crossed it works! Once I'm done there I'll pop in to see DH for a couple of hours before heading home to sew and do needlepoint.

DH is making great progress in rehab. He can now transfer between bed and wheelchair unassisted! He is also making progress on sit/stands with the assistive equipment they have, as well as building the strength and flexibility back into that shoulder. This will be the year that we both learn the art of patience as it is going to be a longer process than we had imagined. But at least he is making progress!

Dinner tonight is most likely pasta and sauce.

that's an awesome update but yes - most likely a longer process than hoped.




I try and make Mondays a cleaning day here also - especially needed today because I took the weekend off and made cards all weekend on an online summit.


Dinner is supposed to be chicken chimichangas but I forgot to pull out chicken so it'll be air fryer salmon instead and I'll do the chimichangas tomorrow

Feels like temperature is 34° so it will definitely be the coldest day at AquaFit. This afternoon I have Crazy Rummy so that will be fun.

Dinner will be sausage soup.

Happy Monday dinner friends!

scrapmaven Thank you for bring the rain with you! I hope you have a nice stay in H-town and are able to spend some time with our sweet **GypsyGirl**

**GypsyGirl** Awesome news on your DH. remember, when things settle down, I want to meet for lunch or quilt shopping halfway. no rush, but looking forward to it in due time. I hope your apt, fixes your vertigo.

Tearisci and jeremysgirl enjoy your slow work day! If you're bored I can send you some busy work. :-) I have a PIA client- there is always one, they just rotate being the top PIA- that started my day off with 14 e-mails. random unresearched questions. grrrrr. Now I'm finally ready to tackle the real work.

I had a great weekend, I was able to spend some time in my sewing room, some time with my son, DIL and GS and a little down time too. the perfect combo.

Proud Mama brag- My son has been assigned a special project at work and is reporting to the CEO for 1 year, he apparently is a well know problem solver and was requested for this assignment. He has an awesome work ethic and makes me proud. :-)

DH and the pup are on their way back from the ranch, dinner will be marinated pork chops and DH has requested fried cabbage. I'll probably steam broccoli for me. I don't like cooked cabbage all that much.

Wishing everyone a great day!

It's rough and windy here too. Would be much warmer if it were calm.



My afternoon picked right up. That's the way my job tends to go.

The Birdhouse Lady can you telehealth to get some cough medication?

We had chili with arugula flatbread and cantaloupe for dinner. I’m trying to empty the refrigerator before the weekend.

It finally dawned on dd1 that they’re giving a shower here next weekend 🙄

I hope your bag makes it today scrapmaven.

**GypsyGirl** I’m so glad your Dh is making progress.

Great news about your DH, **GypsyGirl**!

Congratulations to your DS, austnscrapaddict!

I finally made arrangements to drop off 2 bags of stamps/dies (that have been sitting since before Christmas). My friend forgot I was coming and was off running an errand. Thankfully I was able to leave them so they are finally out of my hair. 

She lives 2 blocks from the yoga studio so there really isn't a good reason that I didn't do this months ago, but we were hoping to get together for lunch which just wasn't happening.

I know I whined last week about seven of us squeezing into MIL's 2 bedroom/1 bathroom space this coming weekend and am happy to report we suddenly have an abundance of options. I knew we could stay with one friend but the distance didn't make it practical. Two other friends offered their apartments, one with a car, so we are truly getting spoiled. 

We are back to Meatless Monday, at least for this week, so dinner is a tofu veggie stir fry. 

jeremysgirl 2 is due in April

1 is due in may.

Then 2 of my nephews are having babies in June & July.

birdhouse lady... as an experience with my kid.. I don't think they are prescribing cough stuff with codeine anymore.. not effective. no pharmacy carries it in my city.
