What's Normal, Anyway?

The weather is being weird today.

Kind of humid.  Tries to be sunny.  Not quite.  Possible rain drops.  Sun?  No.  Kind of humid.  Lather, rinse, repeat.

It's about 73 degrees, but there is a nice breeze.  I've got my office window open - it feels good to have some fresh air in here!

We let the coffee jar run empty AGAIN!  How does that happen?!  To Dunkin Donuts I went - AGAIN!  The nice part about that is when I order a bagel it comes still soft and warm.  Oh yummmm.

Bruce stopped by for sandwiches for lunch - I put chips in mine.  I'm not sure why other than the fact that I'm channeling my inner Bill Cosby.

Or perhaps I'm losing my mind.

Actually - that's more likely.  I was finishing the bulletin today, marveling at the fact that we're finally having a "normal" service - with nothing out of the ordinary (communion, Palm Sunday, Easter, etc.).  Then I looked at the calendar and realized this Sunday is May 1st.  Which means it's the first Sunday of the month.  Which means it's communion.

So much for my "normal" service.

Though what IS normal, anyway?

Judge My Effectiveness

Things I have done today:
1. Set my toaster oven on fire.
2. Temporarily misplaced my documents folder on my computer.
3. Found a snake in my garden.
4. Accidentally spilled peas all over the kitchen floor.
5. Thought there was a stray cat on my deck and realized it was a raccoon.

Things I have not done today:
1. Found my sanity.

Thank goodness for Wear a Dress Tuesday!

Also - thank goodness for my husband who sent me a text this afternoon and reminded me that I should come home soon after my office hours were over so I could enjoy the beautiful weather before a meeting I had tonight.  We were able to get out for a 3.7 mile walk!  It was nice to go together and get a chance to have a technology-free conversation.

After our walk, I made chicken fried rice for dinner.

To make this I used:

• Leftover Rice
• Red Onions
• Frozen Peas
• Frozen Corn
• Chicken
• Scrambled Eggs
• Vegetable Oil
• Soy Sauce
• Sugar

I still haven't perfected my method, but once I do I will share.  It is surprisingly easy!

Alright, I'm exhausted and have to meet a cemetery caretaker first thing in the morning.  Goodnight!

Blooooooming!

These blooms appeared literally overnight last week at the church!

 

Beautiful, right?

This morning has been a little bit hectic - all good things!

Breakfast (repeat of yesterday, although today I accidentally set the toaster oven on fire when I was heating up the cornbread).

Lunch!  I feel like I'm back in college - this was a staple back then.

It's about 75 degrees and sunny out right now so I'm off to enjoy the day because I have a meeting tonight.  Catch 'ya later!  Happy Wear a Dress Tuesday!  xoxo
