Repeat Offenders ~ Sunday, October 3rd

Good morning,

Jana, happy belated Birthday!!!! Yesterday I went to a Mexican restaurant and thought of your pop with the beans and rice. I always enjoy it, but I enjoyed it extra with a smile thinking of you all. Jana, I love our fridge that has the freezer on the bottom. I am sure it is the same size as the side by side, but I feel I can access the items easier, and put in larger items too.  I hope you get just the right one and SOON.

Lora, that is great that Mark will have a week off in between jobs. So nice you got to Longhorn… love that place!! Congratulations on your Keto Anniversary! That really is huge! Oh goodness, glad the car battery bit worked out. That could have gone nutso real fast. Oh Lora, I am so glad you got your red car cookie jar!! How nice of Mark. Your centerpiece looks lovely!!!

Susie, that is so nice that you got to chat with former colleagues. They become so special in our lives. Texas Roadhouse is DH’s favorite.. I love it too. My favorite is the pulled pork. Oh goodness, glad the power restored at your place quickly! Any longer then you’d have fridge food issues too! Congrats on the Bocce Ball win!

Janet, sounds like a grand time at the exhibit and refreshments afterwards. Sounds like a lovely idea. I hope the Zoom meeting worked out alright. How nice your friend could reach the phone earlier last week, that’s encouraging.

RobinMD, oh goodness, I am sorry about your tight back. It must have been awful. Awww, how fun to have your grand pup. I bet it is fun for your pittie girl too. Sounds like great Fall weather for you up there. The other day I thought of you as I was driving to work seeing the fog on the fields. I remember you writing about your pretty fog drives.

I have been really tired in the evenings.  My assistant is in Texas for a few weeks, and she won't be back until mid-October, so it's crazy.  That means, no lunch, running all over and well... she does a ton, so it's tricky to go solo.  

Yesterday DH and I enjoyed our favorite Mexican restaurant on our date.  I also learned to temper chocolate yesterday.  I didn't even know that was a thing, lol.  But I made nutella/Oreo truffles for the boys... which seemed to work out.  It was fun.  I'd like to try a few more chocolate ideas, then be ready to make gifts for Christmas.  

This morning I have a class at church, then lesson plans.  It's the last week of the first quarter, so there's a lot to finish up in the gradebook too.  

Waving hi to all!

Hi Everyone,

Going over soon to my sister's to work on my plan. With my sister being there tho I know its going to be hard to concentrate again though. I do better without noise. Hopefully it wont take as long this time. I mainly have to revise but since my plans were virtual last year I will have to tweak certain things most likely.


After the zoom I have some errands to do as usual. Glad that I got my food shopping done though.

I think we have a Texas Roadhouse around here. It was a buffet I believe but with the Pandemic I think they changed it somehow but I havent been there since before the Pandemic. We do have the Texas Roadhouse here. I am guessing tho that you order now like you would at Longhorns at least from I see on the menu.

That is about it.
Jana, Happy Belated Birthday! I may have wished you on fb before but not sure so will wish again. I hope you get a new refigerator asap..


Susie, no plans today. Take it easy and relax..glad that the bbq and bluegrass was nice. And you met new neighbors too. I like bluegrass music.


Jill, wow, a few weeks and I was stressing over 2 days..however this boy with the Autism was quite challenging the second day when I was by myself although luckily I had the help of the foster grandmother in our room that day. She was a real angel that day. When I went to the doctor later the assistant said my pressure was up and I said I was really stressed. Its normally ok.
Have a great day!!

Hello again,

  I hope everyone has been having a nice Sunday.  YDD picked up the grand-pup, so Duchess is a little bit bummed.  She is pretty tired, though, so I expect she will pass out pretty soon!  I didn't end up doing much today.  I did get my trip to the store out of the way for the week.  That is a help, because I don't like going after work during the week.  I'm scheduled to get my booster tomorrow, so I'll get that out of the way.  Otherwise, I am not planning on doing a lot tomorrow, either.  When I get my mower back, I will have some catching up to do!

  I am going to head to bed early tonight.  I didn't sleep great last night, probably because I kept worrying about the grandpup needing to go out.  He forgets there is a doggy door.  About the time he remembers there is one and he can go in and out, it's time for him to go home. HA!  Anyway, I can use a good rest and a little sleep in.  I'll be back tomorrow.  Have a great start to your week, everyone!

RobinMD
