Went to the grocery store and bought food! It's been so long since I've done that. Charlotte makes me eat out every day for lunch. Michael makes me eat out every night for supper. I make myself eat at Jerry's for breakfast on Saturdays . . . so it's been a while. I got stuff for burritos and goulash. I even bought meat so that Michael would eat too. It's been so long since I've had my burritos, why I don't know, because I love these! Just a flour tortilla, refried black beans and corn and bean salsa with cheese. So good. I love it when I overheat it a bit and the cheese gets crunchy. I probably shouldn't have added that last part.
I also splurged and bought tiny little stripe cookies in individual packages. I spend $1.35 for each little package when I buy them at work. I got a big box so that I could take them to work. I ate a package of them with a banana. Soooo good.
Trying to not drink diet soft drinks anymore, at least, that's what I meant to do. It isn't my fault that they had Coke Zero on sale for 3 12 packs for $9. So I bought them. I had to. So good poured in a glass over ice.
I wish Harriet and Scout got along. I have to open the door when I get home and coach one of them out into the garage and then I take the other one back to their room. I feel so bad that Harry has to stay in her room. She is such a sweetheart.
Stopped by Lindsay's house today and I got to see everyone. They had company. Brandon, his girlfriend and their kids had come over to Lindsay and Craigs for a bbq. I didn't stay long. I so love all of those kids.
Mary and I talked on the way home from church. She and the boys are very excited about our trip to Vegas in a few days. So am I. Actually, I'm dreading the drive but I'm excited to show them around. They'll see desert for the first time and if I don't chicken out they'll get to see the mountains in Colorado. I hate driving in the mountains so much I may head down to New Mexico thru Texas instead.
Church was amazing today. Adult study was just free flow. I was worried when Father Burgett asked what we should discuss and someone mentioned the trouble in Ferguson Mo. I didn't want to talk about that. The rioting is horrible and it scares me that we are still stuck thinking in black and white. I can't wait until people realize that we are all the same, from the same Adam and Eve. We are family.
Luckily we moved away from that. When I'm in church I want to talk about God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. We get enough of the regular day to day living talk - the other 6 days of the week. After last week study, this week, I feel much more relaxed about how Father Burgett really feels about the other denominations. He mentioned how we all believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God. We know Jesus as our Savior. We just have chosen a few different ways to worship.
Last night I had a scare. Michael nor Richard were here and the dogs just weren't happy. There were some men around the house. I thought it was just my neighbors but I remembered the man that I asked to turn his music down. He wasn't too happy with me. I pulled out my gun and made sure it was within reach in case I needed to use it. I meant to bring it with me for some target practice - but I forgot. God's blessing that I woke up safe and sound this morning.
So many ways I'm blessed!
