  • No Time For Writing

    I only have time for a bullet post today.  The day has simply gotten away from me!

    *  It's almost 3:30pm and I'm just now stuffing down 1/2 of a fried hotdog sandwich

    *  Before I know it, it will be time to cook dinner - ground beef somethin' or other!

    *  Still haven't made that banana bread!  The bananas from the first try found the trash & the remaining bananas
       will soon find the same fate, if I don't make time to make the bread!

    *  I really want to work on the photo album I'm putting together for Stephanie.  It's been over a week since I last
       thought about it!

    *  Jesse cooked chicken thighs outside last night.  They tasted great and the family time spent together was greater!

    *  He started his new part time job today.  Hard for him.  After owning his own pawn shop and always holding some
       sort of managerial position (at almost ALL jobs), it's hard to stand around at this new pawn shop and not jump in
       and help!

    *  One of the dogs (probably Sushi) got my feather duster this morning.  It looked like an ostrich had been killed
       in my den!  Feathers everywhere and a chewed up wooden handle.  She's definitely a chewer and very destructive if
       not kept busy!  Little Bit has helped occupy her, and this is the first thing she's chewed up, since he came to live
       with us.

    *  Today's sky can't decide if it wants to be sunny or cloudy.  The dark and light changes are making me sea sick!  It
       looks bright in here and then dark shadows encompass the house, only to be lightened up again a few minutes later!

    *   The windows are open and the air conditioner is on - for the rooms with windows where screens have holes.

    *  I spent time online last night at a friend's blog.  Shanda writes about different books she reads and I was looking
       for something different to read.  (I final finished my epic FIVE novel series!)  I didn't go to bed until almost midnight!

    *  I have such a horrible time falling asleep, it really didn't matter that it was midnight - I would have been awake,
       lying in bed, anyway.

    *  Laundry is done.  House is clean.  AND, our cleaning help came today and cleaned the dusty blinds!  Yay!

    *  I guess if I want that photo album worked on, I need to quit "bulleting" on here!

    Be Blessed ~

  • You can put the bananas in the freezer until you're ready to use them!  I just leave them in the peel, then use a paring knife to peel them, rather then letting them thaw.  I probably have a dozen in there right now!

  • i just made some banana cookies the other night w/ banana's that i had put in the fridge more than a month ago!! i actually think the more "mushy" they are the better tasting they make things. :) i've put them in the freezer too like the lady above me said~ funny, i don't even like banana's but i love banana bread and cookies!!! :)

    hope you're feeling better.. things have been so crazy lately and i haven't gotten to get around and read everyone's blogs like i like too. :)

    sending a hug across the miles tonight..

  • Well by all those bullets you are obviously busy, busy, busy. I throw my bananas in the freezer too, let them sit about 10-15min to thaw, then cut off the ends and squeeze the "guts" out...tube like. It works great!!

    Hope you get some good sleep tonight!

  • I freeze my bananas too. I peel them first, though, and freeze them in baggies in the amount my recipe for banana bread calls for. I had to chuckle thinking of an ostrich being killed in your den!

  • I just wanted to let you know that my Mil is seeing Dr. Bova this week. so far the news we have is that it is ductal invasive cancer at stage 3. They told her that it is aobut 2 cm big, and the book says that is stage 2, so we are not real sure what it all means. Hopefully we will know more after the meeting with Dr. Bova. Thanks again for your help in finding the right doctors for her. Lisa~~

    Hey, Lisa! I know you will, but please keep us informed & updated! We are continually praying for the family!

  • I usually read myself to sleep. Otherwise I'm tossing and turning.

  • @sistersewnsew2002 - 

    Please tell her to tell Dr. Bova and Marilyn (her nurse) that I recommended them. I think she'll find Dr. Bova VERY warm and compassionate AND very knowledgeable. You *did* tell your mother to call me if she wanted - right?
