Good morning Buddies!

I?m getting a late start this morning.  I actually slept til the alarm went off at 6:30 this morning, but I was up a couple of times during the night.  We didn?t go to bed til midnight and lay there talking for at least half an hour, so I didn?t get a whole lot more sleep than usual.  But I?m definitely gonna take a nap afterwhile.

I?ve gotta spend time packing today.  We?re planning to hit the road early tomorrow morning, although we did discuss possibly leaving this evening?that?s why a nap today is in order!!

There?s really shouldn?t be much to pack besides clothes.  It?s just that when Micheal moved into this apartment (while I was still in Fort Wayne) he went shopping and bought all this extra stuff!

The apartment was fully furnished when he moved in, including dishes, cookware and linens.  He went and bought more cookware (he didn?t like what was here), bakeware, extra sheets (he didn?t like theirs), and even gold chargers and a fancy mirrored candleholder for the table!!  Oh, I almost forgot the spice rack and cooking utensils!  Now all of that has to be packed.  Men!  They complain about all the ?unnecessary junk? we buy for our home then they go out and do the same thing!!  I had made a comment about bringing a couple of things from home and he said we didn?t need to haul all that junk out here, then he went shopping and bought more junk!!!  Go figure!

Well, the cookware we?ll be able to use at home.  We?d been talking about getting new stuff anyway.  And those gold chargers will look nice with my blue dishes.  But the sheets?  Our bed at home is a full size.  The one here is queen size.  I don?t think the sheets are gonna fit our bed.  Well, we can use the flat sheet but not the fitted.  Hey, that gives me an excuse to go buy a new queen size bed doesn?t it?  Yeah, I think it does!

Yesterday I did pretty good?cereal for breakfast and a salad with tuna for lunch.  For dinner I had a thin lean pork chop, some potatoes and green beans.  I did have a couple of bites of cake, but not enough to throw me off.  Tonight I won?t have to cook because Micheal is gonna clean up the leftovers and I?m gonna do salad with tuna.

Well, guess that?s it for this blog.  I wish I had something witty and insightful to share, but my brain isn?t processing at full capacity yet this morning.  I think maybe I need to go make some more coffee!!!
