Busy Saturday
Mr. Tldz and I read more of Miss Betsy: A Memoir of Marriage last night, and then again this morning, as we decided to be a little bit lazy. We had breakfast. I went to the grocery store. (Normally a Friday night task, but yesterday’s normal schedule, as you know, was interrupted. On that note… My lips aren’t really tingling. I’ve been using a lot of lip gloss, because I think what I’m feeling now is the burning/stinging of chapped lips. I suspect yesterday when they were a little bit numb, I kept biting or licking at them to make sure they were still there. Shoulder is sore, but very bearable. Pain killers a couple of times a day it seems will suffice.) We unloaded groceries, had lunch, put Agent Murphy down for his nap, I did a little cleaning around the house.
I headed out to check our local children’s consignment store. I got Agent Murphy a number of spring/summer items there last weekend, but the stuff for boys is always pretty slim pickings. They said they were getting more stuff ready to put out, so I thought I’d check back today. Hooray – several more cute items, including one I’d meant to pick up last week that we’ll hopefully be able to use for 18-month portraits.
Since I’ve returned, I’ve made most of the meal we’re delivering tomorrow to church friends who recently had a little girl. Mr. Tldz has dessert for them (blueberry cobbler) in the oven and is working on a blueberry pie for us. (Time to finish off our blueberries from last summer before blueberry season rolls around again. July will be here before we know it!)
Agent Murphy is awake now, so I must go tend to him and help Mr. Tldz in the kitchen. And there is much more cleaning to do tonight and in the morning, as our realtor is holding another open house tomorrow afternoon.
