Yes! I went back to sleep after my 0330 wake up. I sat down only to discover that England and Australia had sat down for a spot of lunch. Then, to no one’s surprise, there came rain. England, you know. I surfed around, picked up the latest news on the Catholic clergy sex abuse scandal. I fixed a “clean-out”omelette, finishing off the mushrooms and sour cream that needed using up.
At one point, I decided to change the sheets, including rotating the mattress, no small feat with a queen. Sheets have been changed, bed frame polished, room dusted. Now I sit.
I got tired of J spending $3.36 at Dunkin’ Donuts for an iced tea every bloody day. It wasn’t so much the money as it was the friggin’ plastic cup, she got every damn time that make up 20% (?) of our recyclables. So I saved a lid, found a cup that it would fit and sent her off to work.This is the iced tea, I make for her, that she drinks as the alternative. Fuck that. The iced tea expense is absurd. It is over.
I will swim some time today, if the weather holds up.
Right now I am sitting with no TV on, no music playing, just some insects chirping outside. Lying down and the sheets are clean.
We’re never without ice tea in the house. Daddy drinks it by the gallon. 🙂 I recently had my first Dunkin Donut coffee. Sadly, now I know what all the fuss is about. lol
Yeah. I think we can get this switch in place.
Home made is always so much better. 🙂
J is an iced tea snob. But I use the same stuff the fast food places use.
I’m the ONLY one in my family who prefers unsweet tea and where we live, sweet tea is the norm. It was kind of funny when we were in the Midwest a few weeks ago, I was ordering my drink at a restaurant and asked for “unsweet tea please”. The waitress looked at me like I had 2 heads and said “yeah, that’s all we’ve got.” Whaaat?? Lol I forget that in many parts of the world, iced tea means unsweet tea.
Richmond is a Southern City, but the incursion of Northerners since the end of World War Two, has produced a sizable population of unsweet tea drinkers. I always drink iced tea unsweetened, because my mother, even though a native Virginian always made it unsweetened.
