Monday

No menu this week or for the next couple of weeks. We’re having leftovers and smoked pork butt til I leave

It’s funny, and I guess old habits die hard, but almost every Sunday, I start thinking about what I’ll do “tomorrow since Vince will be at work!” Yesterday I was thinking “tomorrow” I’ll vacuum the rugs and dust the blinds while Vince is at work and then I realized he isn’t going to be at work. We’re into our 7th month of retirement and I still forget that he’s not leaving on Monday morning.

We were scheduled to take my car in today to get the anti-freeze flushed but I remembered they had changed my timing belt about a year and a half ago and I thought they drained everything and put new anti-freeze in then so Vince called them, they looked it up and yes . . so I didn’t have to take the car in to the shop.

The last two times I went to MO, I came back asking Vince to put new wiper blades on my car. Then we both forgot about it. It so rarely rains here and we so rarely drive my car that we just don’t notice that it needs new wiper blades. We were out Friday and it was drizzling and Vince said “You need new wiper blades!” Yep! He had some and just hadn’t put them on. Yesterday he changed the back one and when he went to change the front ones, he didn’t like the new ones so he’s going to run to town today and get different front wiper blades.

I suppose that’s about the extent of the excitement for our day. I’ll be knitting. Dinner is in the smoker. I’ll heat up leftover beans and come up one another veggie. There shouldn’t be too much infringing on my knitting time today . . I hope.
