Bits and Pieces


I think I'm finally adjusting a bit to the heat.  I began to think I might do nothing but sit in front of the fan for 10 months!  Mind you, it's still HOT, but at least I've accomplished a bit today:  5 loads of laundry (though I did have some help hanging it out to dry) and most of it is folded and put away.  The area rugs are still on the line and sheets still need to be folded.  I could do that now except I burned my wrist (see, I shouldn't be cooking and to make matters worse, I was cooking something for the dog!) and the vitamin E I put on it would get all over the sheets.  The burn is not bad and the vitamin E will take care of it.  In the meantime, the sheets can stay hanging over a dining room chair!
We do have a gas drier, but why waste gas when there are plenty of lines for hanging things.  I'll change my tune when rainy season starts!
If you are hungry, please eat something before reading more. Our food today was so yummy.  For lunch we had leftovers from a funky little Lebanese restaurant we went to the other night. One thing we had was sort of like pizza but made with Lebanese bread instead of pizza crust and all that was on it was lots of cheese and pepperoni.  Sooo good, even as leftovers!  Along with that we had fresh pineapple and avocado.  You haven't tasted pineapple until you taste some that is locally grown instead of being picked way early so it can be transported before it spoils.  And all you need for avocado is salt and pepper;  the taste is so delicate it gets lost if mixed with other ingredients.
Tonight we had smoothies:  Darrell had banana-papaya-pineapple; I had just banana-papaya.  Again, nothing like fresh, locally grown fruit!
Tomorrow we plan to go to Sackie's church.  We've never been there before, so his son will stop by in the morning to ride with us so we don't get lost. We're looking forward to a good day in the Lord's house.  God has blessed us way beyond what we deserve and we look forward to worshipping together with other believers.  God is so good!
