Another One Of Those Days

And I thought I'd wake up to sunshine for some strange reason. Where is my mind?! I think I'm getting a bit logy from all these days of rain and dreariness. I know, I know, I said the other day that I'd take them as they come. However, I spent weeks planting my flowers and potted plants only to have them dying from all the rain. The deer are also coming to take a few bites of something new. My favorite planter must be yummy because there is barely anything left of it. And something out there has acquired a taste for my herb, dill. so that leads me to believe that there is a gourmet fiend out there. I must now buy it to make my fish dishes and that rubs me the wrong way.



I think I'm getting grouchy finally. You think so? No, not really. It's just waking up to the dog barking when I wanted to sleep more this morning. Yesterday was a day of running to appointments and then grocery shopping. That always takes the steam out of me. Although I must say that once I sat down and rested for a half hour or so, I got the craving for Tacos. Yes! I had all the ingredients and jumped right in. In no time flat I had them made and sat down to enjoy one. And then it was two. I suffered for it the rest of the evening but it tasted so good I just couldn't help myself.



I have now learned that you don't eat watching the Food channels. Last night it was Around the World for the Best Sandwiches. There I sat filling my face as I commented on what pigs some people make of themselves when eating those gigantic works of art. A 50 pound hamburger for a party of ??? There were sandwiches with one pound of bacon on them plus the meats, cheeses and other additions. The people could barely hold it let alone open their mouths wide enough to get a good bite. They had a grip like a vise in order to hold the sandwich together. That's not enjoying a burger to me if I can't even hold it. That bacon sure looked good though...They must not watch TV and see that the US is mostly overweight. To be truthful, I try to skip those myself.



Today I go back to eating sensibly. It's a tall order for me who craves sweets but I'm trying. Here I am thinking how great a piece of Angel Food Cake would taste with my cup of tea. Fantasy Joyce, you have to bake one first and this is not the day to be baking. It's much too close in here already so think the day will be heavy and still.



The deer just appeared and were leisurely eating my rose bushes. I sat here and let them. Why not, they've eaten everything else. I should send them around front where my daughter-in-law's roses and lilys are growing like crazy. For some reason they don't go near hers. Maybe because they are right outside her door and they do like Venison...

I'm not doing too great this morning so will close for today. I even forgot to put a picture at the beginning and when trying to go back, lost the whole blog. It took me quite awhile back tracking and going to History to find this again. Stress, stress, stress! I don't think this will be one of my best days. As a matter of fact, I'm going to go back and see if I can nap since it's so early and hubby won't be up for hours.

Have a great day and make the most of it. It won't come around again you know.

Hugs
