Today did turn out to be a fairly nice day after all. Although it didn't get quite as warm as forecast, it did get into the mid-60's. It just didn't stay there long...LOL Just about the time it got to 65, the sky got cloudy. No rain, thankfully but it does bring down the temperature a bit.
My bff, Carol, sent a *care* package for the two fur babies today. She sent some Temptations for Sassy and some Greenies for Dennis. I have seen the ads for the Greenies (for bad breath) but wasn't sure if Dennis would like something that was green and might contain some kind of mint. But he just loves them! He took one and ate it right down and came back looking for more. Sassy was outside making friends with the chickens (they touch beaks to nose) so she didn't get any of her treats until later but she gobbled them down as soon as they were put out for her.
I wish Carol and I didn't live at opposite sides of the country so we could actually meet in person. It would be nice. All we know of each other is what we have told each other about (and we have trusted each other with secrets from our hearts) and voices over the phone. It will have to remain that way, I guess. She can't travel and I sure can't these days....not without stops along the way. The IBS-D also makes it scary since I do, on occasion, have a *break through* with it. If I am not near a bathroom, that's scary.
Now she is having severe issues with her heels from her neuropathy. It means she now even has a problem walking. That makes it even worse for her. I have it in my feet but I can still walk. It's just not pleasant.
I finally got the Beast to make his spaghetti but it didn't turn out as good as usual. He didn't really cook the veggies long enough and the green pepper was still really raw. He also didn't put enough sauce on it but I still ate two bowls of it...LOL. It was edible but just! Even he was complaining about it not tasting right to him. I hadn't watched him make it so I couldn't even make a suggestion. Next time I will make my own. I cut up the onions and green pepper for him since he hates that part most of all. He also ends up cutting them too big just to get it over with quickly. Men!
He went to bed early tonight so he is probably planning on going out with his church group tomorrow. He's definitely feeling a lot better (the ribs) since he didn't call me to get the storage containers out from the lower cabinet tonight when he put the spaghetti away. Me? I'm just tired from my back hurting me all day. I couldn't seem to get comfortable no matter what I tried. I must be sleeping funny because I don't have that all the time.
The poor NE part of the country is really suffering from this latest snow storm it got. I really feel for them but am glad I don't live in that area. I like it just where I am. I would have preferred to stay in Florida weather but even that is changing and it's too expensive to live there on our SS.
Love you all. I am heading for bed now. Be good. Stay warm and be happy. ***Hugs***
