It was a peaceful day today. The Beast was gone most of the morning. He was out with his church friends, preaching to people. Then, after coming home for a bite of lunch, he was gone again for a movie at church. So my day was peaceful with just me and Baron here.
When Mustachio got online late in the afternoon, we were chatting and he happened to mention as an aside that Buttmunch had a job! I was both shocked and happy for her. She is working as a waitress at a popular steak house in the area. He only mentioned it because of finally getting the copy of her birth certificate she had sent for that she needed for work. I gather to prove she is not an illegal. She had to have it before her first paycheck. At least, that was my impression from Mustachio. But you never know how much information they have that's correct. They don't listen well. I was just glad to hear she was working again.
Typically, he still has boxes that aren't unpacked and he is scheduled to work tomorrow (Sunday) so it won't be done for a while. He's always exhausted when he gets home. He is still fighting numbness in his hand but says it's getting much better, little-by-little.
The Beast bought this cranberry nut bread the other day and had wanted to try making French toast out of it. Today he finally did and it really was good. He had to detail how he had changed his recipe a bit and I would find out when he made it with regular bread...yadda yadda yadda.....he droned on. He always acts like he's the first one to do anything and do it great! LOL
He went to bed really early tonight and I'm not sure why. He could just have been tired but he was in bed before 9pm. I had taken a late nap and woke up around 9 to use the bathroom. I found I was tired and went right back to sleep then woke up around 10:30 or so to shut down my computer, which I had forgotten to shut down. Back to sleep and woke up with a start because I remembered I hadn't done my blog AND I needed to use the bathroom again. LOL
It's freezing outside...literally. It's 32 degrees, which is slightly better than it's been the last couple of nights. My sciatica seems to be giving me fits between yesterday and today. It feels like you have a nerve in your leg that's being hit with electricity and it HURTS! Nothing I can do about it tho' except grin and bear it. It comes and goes. I really think the cold weather has a lot to do with it.
Oh hell, it says it feels like 26 degrees because of the humidity and wind. I guess that's why my little heater in here is on most of the time. I can hear it blowing even in my recliner. For a little thing, it sure packs a punch and keeps this room toasty even when I have the window cracked open a little. Tomorrow it says we will hit the high 50's, which isn't so bad if it's sunny and bright. AND if there's no wind to speak of. Okay....okay.....I am a wimp. I have never, ever been a fan of winter weather. And, after living most of our married life in Florida, THIS is winter already to me. Heck, in Florida, when it dropped down to 70 degrees, we were wearing winter jackets! I kid you not! But we always had high humidity and lots of wind so it felt even colder. I remember my dad being surprised by that even.
Love you all. Hope you are almost done with your Christmas shopping. *Sigh* None here. But that's what happens when you live with a spendthrift like the Beast and have a month of big bills. Oh well. Be good. Stay safe and warm. ***Hugs***
