I give up

[susandennis]

Today I will be making myself an eye mask for early morning sleeping. Even when the sun isn't out, the daylight comes in about 5:15 these days... I try to ignore it and I'd be successful if it weren't for Biggie. Biggie sees daylight and thinks it's his duty to make sure I am sleeping no more. I can ignore either of them but not both at the same time. I ordered one on Amazon this morning but then quickly figured out I could make one better out of stuff I had here. So I canceled the order.

Volleyball was pretty wild today. One of the better players was missing and two of the players there are pretty annoying to play with and the rest of us were really off our games. It was so bad it was funny. But, as Will says, it's the most fun and most painless way to get two hours of exercise! He's not wrong.

Elbow Coffee this morning will be the first one with Joan back. She actually only missed three but she's a big elbow coffee player so it makes a diff.

Then the baseball game is an afternoon game so there's that.

The menus for next week came out yesterday and dud city. The only thing of interest on either of the dinner menus or even the lunch menu was a Weird BLT that, in addition to the b and l and t, they are adding avocado (reasonable) and and egg. WTF? I'll try it. They are good, however, about substitutions so if it's horrible, it will be easy to fix.

Monday they are only serving one meal - a special picnic/buffet thing. You go through the line and then eat outside with live music. But, Myrna is setting the table up here in the elbow so we will get our food and bring it up here to eat it. Much better. But, it means we've got 3 days only to get the puzzle done! Turns out it's actually about 3 days from being done so perfect.

Sounds like *Biggie* needs the sleep mask, LOL

addition to the b and l and t, they are adding avocado (reasonable) and and egg.

Hmm, I think it would depend on how they do the egg, for me! Is it a fried/scrambled egg that is hot? Or like egg salad? I could get behind egg salad pretty easily on a BLT. A fried egg though, works with the B and the T, but does it work with the L?

I didn't realize you guys played for two hours! That's a good chunk of time!

I'm guessing it will be a fried egg. But, I will report for sure... maybe a photo!

Our game times are an hour and a half BUT I go in a about 30/45 mins early to set up. Steve, who's kind of the de facto organizer, get there then. It takes us maybe 10 mins to set up and then we do one on one til others show up - there are a couple of others who are usually there early. You get in gooooood practice. Totally worth it.

Because we have tons of avocados in NZ, BLTs are always BLATS. They're excellent.

LGBT (lettuce, guacamole, bacon and tomato) is one of my favorite sandwiches, but I doubt I'd like egg on it. And plain avocado slices tend to shoot out of the sides of the sandwich when you bite down, so it's tasty but impractical.

Ok that makes for a really hilarious mental video clip.
