June 1st I go back to work full time 8-5. How many weeks has of been now? 10??? Sounds about right. I have mixed feelings about it. From what I gather, they don’t know what we are suppose to be doing. Taking temps at the door? Wear mask? No one is following those guidelines. Plus, since the campus is still mostly as home work will be slow. I’ll basically be stuck in the office bored to tears. As my long time reader are likely aware, office week is the worst week for me. I can’t sit still and I’ve become pretty active during my time off taking walks. Average 5-6 miles a day. I know eventually we will all have to get back, I just wish they had a better enforced plan and idea. Not just fly by the seat of one’s pants.
So our dog Owen has to go back to the vets. Further test revealed an obstruction in his lower intestines and colon. He eats everything so it was a guessing game what it might be. Bottom line, he required surgery. Of course we don’t bat an eye to that expense, he is our little boy. It was a lonely house the 3 days with out him but everything went well and he came home in such higher spirits. Before he went he wasn’t eating or drinking. So they removed intestine, 12 in. So think with scar tissue nothing could pass. What had caused this had been meandering through his bowels for a while to cause so much tissue damage. It had moved to his colon by the time of surgery and with all the meds they had given him it finally passed. No joke, about 2 1/2 feet of some sort of fabric. I’m just glad to have him back.
Let’s see. What else happen? What an exciting emotional week. Bekah got called out for being a racist by Facebook trolls for having a “not so similar name” as someone else across the country that actually is a racist. She was berated with messages and so was her work. It got the point people began to call. A case of mistaken identity that only true idiots could pull off. It’s pathetic if this is how the world is. I mean, common sense. These jacka** f***s put a lot of stress on a woman that was already stressed because her baby boy was in surgery. The internet and people can be vile as s***. If you are going to get your kicks off harassing people on the internet, at least do a little research and make sure it’s the right person. My faith in my fellow mankind was diminished a bit this week
Jalapeño
Carne guisada. It was good. Really just steak and a grilled jalapeño w/ pico. Simple.
Well this is it. The last of the white wine Worcestershire sauce. Sad day. Since Bekah had had such a hard day I made her favorite meal. Sweet kale salads with baked sweet potato and blackened chicken drizzled with the sauce. It was great as usual. Wish that sauce was still available.
Squash & zucchini chicken nachos. Thank you once again for the GIANT fruits, Jamie. Can’t entertain he idea of doing this meal without enormous ones. A lot of time is put into preparation on this. Each batch of chips requires 15 min of microwave time. They reduce in size by about a half. It’s well worth it. If this is just a once a year meal, it’s all the better.
Cocktail of the Week: Rum & Coke.
