New Setup

I think I mentioned in Friday's post that the original plan for Saturday was to shop around for a new recliner and lunch. Well, Friday evening Jim said, "I want to get a TV for the back deck." As we know, I can be talked into just about anything so I pivoted and instead of a trip to Big Sandy's and Agave and Rye, we headed to Costco, Walmart and lunch at Condado's. We got a 55" and mounted it under the eave between the kitchen and dining room. Additionally, we moved the four glider chairs and fire table up on the deck. It's perfect. Saturday night while I relaxed in the spa, I had my music going with Harry Potter on in the background. I mean, why would I ever need to leave my house? 

Holy moly, the Bengals. First, fingers crossed that Joe Burrow's toe isn't as bad as they're saying it could be. However, so proud that Browning eked out a win! It might not have been pretty (3 interceptions) but he did well and I have confidence that he can keep us in wins! 

Other than the outing on Saturday, our weekend was pretty chill. Although the most unchilled part was having to go to Costco smack dab in probably the busiest time but they really get you through the checkout in record time. Aside from the TV, Jim's day was made when he found spaetzle and pork schnitzel. We had it last night and I have to say, it was pretty delicious. The pork was a little bland (needed salt and pepper) but still really yummy. I'd definitely buy it again. 

Dinner tonight: I'm going to make meatloaf with mashers and peas. 

The week at school should be pretty easy. I have one meeting on Tuesday but it's not my meeting, just a planning meeting for an evaluation, over the telephone and should be short and sweet. However, it's for my crazy kid - Stupid baby - but it shouldn't prove a problem. 

And that's all I've got. Time to finish getting ready. Later!
