What a much better day...

[susandennis]

The better day just keeps being better. I got work done and tied up with a bow til Thursday. I got my webcam it's own IP address and didn't break anything. I found a very cool phone app to view the webcams on.

I finished a bear.

I found a home for my TV, I think. The local children's hospital wants it for their waiting room and has a truck and driver to come pick it up, she thinks. She's going to call me back tomorrow.

I think I'll have quiche and caesar salad for dinner.

Sometime between now and Thursday morning, I need to pick up the crap around here so Amira can clean. Somebody's been creating a mess!

Tomorrow morning I have to do a fasting blood test. My current plan is to do the gym first and then the test and then find some place delicious for breakfast. Possibly iHop which is quite nearby.

And that's all the news that is fit to print right this single minute.

That's a pretty cool day, susandennis!

And, bytheway, I have to thank you again for posting your ginger pickle recipe! I finally got to the store to get some ginger and made it the other day. It is delicious . . . HOT and delicious! I might have put a tad more fresh ginger in it . . . oh, I don't know, maybe double or triple what you said. I seldom measure things and just used all that I had bought. And since I love fresh garlic, well . . . there a couple cloves of that in there, too.

I've eaten a nice serving of it with every meal, so far. It does get your attention as it clears the sinuses. Oh, the heat it produces on these cold days! Love it!

I love that!! I'm so glad to hear it. My last batch did not have enough ginger! And adding the garlic is brilliant. Thanks!

A day made of Win!

You may want to exercise after the blood test. My understanding is exercise makes the body create more sugar in the short term. You may want to research that.

Yikes! I did not even think of that. I started to take your comment as a welcomed excuse to pass on the gym this morning. But, then I googled "exercise before a blood test" and without even clicking on a page I could see that there are all manner of possible effects I don't want. So see you tomorrow, gym!

Thank you. Great save!

I hate fasting for blood work. I usually cheat and have a cup of coffee or I'd be a complete bitch to deal with.
