Early To Bed....

Tomorrow is my ultrasound appointment and I was sitting here trying to figure out whether I wanted to shower tonight or tomorrow morning.  I think morning has won out because I am tired.  If I get to bed early, I should be up early but am setting my alarm just in case.

I got my pot pie made up today and it turned out really good.  The Beast brought home some chicken for our lunch and I am starting to feel like we will be clucking soon instead of speaking...LOL!  We have been eating more chicken than any other kind of meat for our protein.  But it seems like there is more bang for your buck with chicken although the breast meat is expensive per pound, especially if you get boneless.  

I cut up some strawberries and we had strawberry shortcake for our dessert.  The Beast had only bought a pint so there's almost nothing left of those.  He really piles on the strawberries but I wasn't going to complain.  He picked up some cottage cheese the other day and I had that with some peaches for my breakfast.  Weird, I know but I just had a taste for it.  

It was another nice peaceful day.  After dinner, the Beast made himself this special ...thing...is all I can call it.  It reminds me of the start of some kind of  miter box that he will be using to adjust one of his lenses for his cameras.  He will have to use math to set it and it includes a ruler that he needs to have for the adjustment.  It's to measure the distance from the target focus area to the lens.  As long as HE understands what he is doing, I just admired it for him.  He had looked for one  online and found a couple similar in design but the least expensive was around $50. and it was just plastic covered cardboard.  What he made was wood and it cost him about $2. to make.  It took him some time since the angles had to be perfect but he's patient with something like that.  He was also very proud of it.  I just hope it does the job for him or I will never hear the end of it.

I'm off to bed.  It's still before midnight and the temperature is already down to 66.  The Beast was complaining and threatening to cut down all the trees because they are losing their leaves.  He can be so incredibly dumb at times.  His big complaint was the cherry trees dropped their leaves entirelly already.  I reminded him that  they were also the earliest to leaf and flower, too.  Men!  

Love you all.  Have a great week.  I'm going to have the Beast bring in the winter clothes from the cottage when he has a chance.  He doesn't have to do it all at once since I need to wash them as he brings them in.  That will give me a chance to start putting away the summer clothes into the bins for them, little-by-little.  ***Hugs***
