After the stress of the past week, yesterday was a day for Mark to decompress. We had a quick dinner of asparagus, garlic and goat cheese with a little red pepper flakes over linguine. And we ate before 9:30!
Today we got our second booster shot. The young man administering it said a lot of people have been coming in. This was at Walgreens. I feel hopeful that this will be a further shield against the virus that will allow me to feel more comfortable seeking medical care. We are still wearing the N95s.
It is yet again a rainy day. We have made up for any moisture deficit we came into winter with. Saturday is supposed to be nice, I hope to get out and do something. I'm very limited but I need to do something. I've got Mother Hen Mark hovering over me, I tell him I can judge my own tolerance, he doesn't need to tell me what I shouldn't do, but he does. I don't listen, but sometimes he is right.
The Mother Hen needs to go into town and will pick up fried chicken for dinner, no cooking for me tonight! Sometimes I need a break and today is one of those times. I feel totally unmotivated, the dreariness sure doesn't help. I'm going to start a fire and finish a Netflix series; Anatomy of a Scandal. I'll find out who is lying.
Good for you getting your booster shot! We will get ours soon:)
ReplyDeleteWe got motivated when Mark's brother asked him to go out to dinner next week.
DeleteI almost went to get sushi tonight. By Thursday, I'm generally not really that motivated to cook, but then the 15 min I had to drive for sushi seemed like too much after the hour+ drive home from work. I drove the long way to go to a car wash. Silly, I realize, but I have a subscription to it. Or a membership or whatever it's called. And anyway, it meant I didn't feel like driving more, so I bought sausages and a pointed cabbage and some ready-made potato salad and made that instead. It was actually pretty good and very easy.
ReplyDeleteI hope your weather does indeed improve and you can get outside. Good weather, sunshine and some time in the garden has definitely improved my mood.
That is a long drive for a car wash! Your dinner sounds quite good, sushi will wait for another day.
DeleteWe have a decent day today, 47 and sunny. Rain tomorrow and possibly Saturday. Someday it will be nice outside, for a minute!
