Sunday afternoon. I’m not sure if I would label what I did last night as ‘sleep’ as much as ‘not be awake’. I had checked in here for a few minutes and toddled off to bed. But by 9:30 I was kicking the mattress with frustration so I took a second dose of ‘my little helpers’ and soaked in the hot tub two hours.
And then, it was 8:30 am.
Three hours and as many cups of coffee later my brain started functioning again and I considered walking to the Winery for brunch but one step outside to let Mushy potty and that idea was squashed. Triple digit temperatures out there. So I am staying in where it’s cool and quiet. Had some bacon with a homemade biscuit and gravy.
Yesterday indeed felt long as anticipated but the crowd of customers at the show kept it moving along. Then Mr. BCF babysat Mushy while BCF and I went out to dinner for Mexican food.
I felt the ‘recent’ me try to kick in as we walked past the dessert tray sample but the ‘renewed me’ kicked her back and said ‘no, not this meal, not if you are going to have a margarita like you want.’ Boy oh boy did I want one of those right then too. Had two.
So we split the shrimp brochette and fajita plate. It was delicious and I managed to stop before I overate, which I could have done, would have done recently. I took a cue from BCF because she actually sat back and said ‘whew, stick a fork in me, I am done’ and I thought ‘oh, yeah, good reminder.’
BCF's doc recently advised her she'd gained too much weight. When she had that hip fracture a year ago she lost too much as was so thin it was a health issue. She's a reminder to me.. we all have health issues. So she started eating more and now she has to pull back too. I considered it nice of her to give me that little cue.
Plus that left enough chicken, shrimp and steak to bring home in a doggy bag. Literally. Mushy loved it. We took Mr. BCF chicken quesadillas.
All in all, I give my ‘dinner out’ a good review as far as the food was fabulous and I did not eat too much of it to feel uncomfortable or as if I had ruined anything later.
Blondie’s crew was supposed to bring my new dresser over today but it’s just too darned hot nor do I possess the energy or ambition to deal with it. Maybe in the Fall, LOL. For the rest of the day I plan to stay still, cool, and comfortable. I have earned today. I’m going to spend it.
Hope you are all having a great Sunday in your world today too.
