Quick Takes Volume 73


~1~
For the second day in a row I'm battling an unpleasant headache.  I thought I was over it but then it hit me pretty badly a few minutes into Mass this morning.   I'm wondering if it might be sinus related based on how my right eye and cheek feel.  I hope I'm not coming down with something.  Now is not a good time for me to get sick.

I'm getting down to crunch time with VBS.  I have a bunch of little things to take care of and I have about two weeks to do it.  I'm going to have to find a way to carve a couple of hours out of each day to take care of everything.

Madeline has a friend sleeping over tonight.  Hopefully my headache goes away before her friend gets here.  If not, I suspect I'll be miserable.

I don't think Madeline even likes s'mores, but they're on her list of things to do for tonight.  Bryan and I have decided that we're going to do some karaoke, too.  Madeline's not exactly thrilled about it, but we think her friend will enjoy it.

We've discovered that Katie is a potato snob.  She will happily eat french fries and mashed potatoes, but don't even think about giving her a baked potato.  Twice this week she has been brought to the point of being very upset that I had the audacity to put such a food on her dinner plate.  So much for getting away from packaged potatoes.

I think I have to go and buy new basil plants.  Two of them have already died.  I had one inside and another over in the pool retainer wall garden.  They both died at roughly the same time.  The third basil plant I had in another garden is thriving.  I'm determined to grow a basil plant inside so I can have fresh basil in the winter.

My niece graduated from high school last night.  We weren't able to go to the graduation but I did get to see pictures.  We're heading to my mom's on Sunday for a small party to celebrate with her.

  1. I LOVE baked potatoes! Especially the ones from Wendy's. I don't know why, but they make them better than I can.
