Today Was Not Too Bad.....

I actually managed to get some crocheting done today.  I also stayed up almost the whole day.  I took a short (2 hour) nap but that won't interfere with my getting to sleep tonight....I hope.  Last night was not great but I managed to actually get about four hours STRAIGHT sleeping time.  When I woke up, I had to make a run to the bathroom because my bladder was having a fit!  LOL

The Beast was in a cooking mood again today.  I think it's because he plans on being gone most of the daylight hours tomorrow.  He's going out with a few church people in the morning but in the afternoon, he's taking a young kid out and his cousin (who is older and has graduated from high school) to teach them a few things they need to learn about using their cameras.  The gal took photography in high school but we know how those classes go.  She needs to learn how/when to use her flash and how to use auxiliary lighting.  Oh, and also WHEN to use it.

A person from his church is surprising his parents with a 50th wedding anniversary party next month and asked the Beast how much he would charge to take pictures of the event.  I don't know what the Beast told him but he's not doing this one for free.  He does plan, however, to make any corrections on the pictures then download them onto a CD and let the person that asked him take it to Walgreens or Walmart...wherever they want....and have pictures made up at their expense.  It makes more sense for him to do it that way.  He pays a high price for the papers that are used to print up pictures and it will actually be cheaper for the person to get them made at someplace that gets theirs at a reduced cost.  They DO pass that on to the people using their service.

Anyway, the Beast cooked us up some really good tasting beef shreds with onions and green peppers.  He even had crusty rolls to serve it on.  Yum!  We also had our choice of cole slaw or potato salad.  The beans are gone....LOL.  They were tasty.  For dinner, he added Italian beef gravy to the mix for dipping our sandwiches in.  I didn't say he was imaginative but at least the two WERE different.

He made a trip over to the Princess' house to give her one of his spare camera bags.  He's got several including a hard metal one that he uses for these special flashes he owns.  They are on the large size and were very costly.  He takes good care of them because we no longer have the spendable income to replace them when they finally die.

Tomorrow I may venture out.  It's supposed to be in the mid-to-upper 50's and sunny.  Since the Beast will be gone, I figure it's time for my KFC hot wings.  *Grin*  I only have Baron to worry about but he won't be here by himself for long.  I can run out and get them then come home and feed Baron so he won't have to eat alone.  He can get weird at times when the Beast is gone for long periods of time.  I'll let him out before I go so I don't have to worry about THAT.  He's got a strong bladder but you don't want to push it if it's not necessary.

Love you all.  Have a great Saturday.  Drive carefully.  You won't be alone on the road, especially if you have grocery shopping to do.  ***Hugs***
