After getting very little sleep Thursday night and then following the current national drama all day Friday...I sat down to watch the late-night show comedians as I was in need of their jokes and laughter that at least I...was in much need of. I suppose I was tired and by 11:10 p.m. I had drifted into dreamland.
I was surprised when I woke up and it was 8:25 a.m. which meant I slept for 9 hours straight...something extremely odd for me but very much welcomed. After tackling my morning chores I sat down to watch some shows I had taped. Would you believe I again fell asleep for an hour and twenty minutes? Taking a siesta is something extremely rare for me!
I have been working on organizing the pantry and taking inventory of what I have and what I need to purchase. Ran into a 25 oz. can of Juanita's Hot & Spicy Menudo that I bought back on May 22, 2020. I found a great tip on a prepper's video that suggested you write down the day you bought an item versus the day it expires and it has worked well for me.
Menudo in Del Rio, like in most cities in Texas is only sold on weekends. While there is an excellent place close to the house you have to get there early as they tend to sell out quickly. It also costs $9.00 plus for a 30 oz. container. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it a 7. It definitively made my list of items to purchase again.
I am in denial when it comes to the weeds brought about from all the rain we had during the month of September. I can only show you a picture of the backyard...I am too embarrassed to even photograph the front.
I am still having problems with this new Blogger format. If I use my Reading List it does not take me to the blog I want but to a link to re-route me. I no longer know what countries visit me that particular day I only have figures for the week and that does not even add up to the blogger count.
I was hoping this new format would once again notify me if I had a comment on my current post or for that matter on prior ones. I am not even notified if I have messages on other blogs even if I click on that particular blog box feed.
As I am typing this it is 4:23 p.m. and CNN just cut off to show Trump leaving and waving to his supporters outside of Walter Reed Medical Center. There is a Spanish saying..."El que por su gusto muere hasta la muerte le sabe"...very appropriate for this occasion.
They are now saying he is not leaving Walter Reed just putting on a PR show. Does he not realize he is putting the life of the drivers and Secret Service agents who are in charge of his detail at risk? Pitiful!
Temperatures have been wonderful...the '60s in the mornings and the high 80's in the afternoon.
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
