I had to lie face down for a day and a half.  I wasn't allowed out of bed.  It was rotten.

I laid in bed for almost two weeks straight because I couldn't be in the light (my bedroom is very dark), couldn't be on the computer or watch TV (did listen to it though, with the doors to my armour closed because of the light).  I took a shower in the dark and dried my hair as well in the dark. 

I can always beat everyone with their sob story, don't even try.   :tongue:

Jebus, that would cost more than a brand new car.   :o

I had a very bad dentist who messed up a 3 tooth bridge. I ended up getting implants for those 3 teeth. Between the specialist who inserted the post thingies and the dentist who fashioned the teeth, it was almost $10k, and insurance generally doesn't cover implants. At least mine didn't. I'm glad that's over.

I am waiting for the dinner guests to arrive and tweaking food prep details.  i don't think our house has been this clean since before I went south for Gustav in August.  :p

Angus sirloin burgers, WI Brats in beer and some Nathans franks for the little beelers.  Various salads and some mac and cheese. Couple kinds o' veggies.  We are trying to keep it as relaxed and casual for these folks as possible.

What's up wit youse tonight?

The menu sounds great!

I took my mother out to dinner after I was done at work. Italian Buffet, it was pretty good. Now I am home typing on the computer.  :hyper:

Omaha Steaks makes some awesome "gourmet" hot dogs.  I have no idea where they get them, but they are good.

I was very busy today at work.  I hit up the grocery store for some supplies.  I found out my Kroger was out of the frozen crawfish tails.  :(  I asked the guy at the seafood counter and he said someone else just asked about them a few days ago, so they'll probably order it again soon.

Anywho, so for dinner I made a butter cream sauce with shrimp (since no crawfish), rice, crescent rolls and for dessert (but I'm thinking really for breakfast) cinnamon rolls.  :)

Today was basically greyt. I had a product show at Busch Stadium today. I was able to go on a behind the scenes tour and sat in the Cards dugout.

On my way home I stopped at a local shopping center. I didn't realize they were having a little special event. My doc never has flu shots, so I always have to pay for them somewhere. I missed my appointment with the visiting nurses at my office.

I was overjoyed!! I saved $25. There were representatives from Missouri Baptist Hospital there. They were giving FREE flu shots. The nurse had her master's (was on her badge) and was GOOD. This was the easiest one I've ever had. How could it get better---a flu shot that didn't hurt and FREE.  :-)

Then there were tables with excellent little snacks, again free, and Whole Foods reps were there handing out those reusable bags with $25 worth of coupons in there.

It was a nice ending to the day. Well, not quite the end. SR and I went to Whole Foods and got his favorite salmon and spinach patties. We used one of the coupons, $5 off $25, very quickly. It doesn't take long to spend $25 at Whole Foods.

Do you have a good recipe for those frozen crawfish tails? We just got a package of them tonight at Whole Foods. I've never made them before.

Oh honey do I????  I like this crawfish butter cream sauce, but it's rich.  I also have a recipe for crawfish pie.  I like crawfish etouffee, but I use a mix for that, not from scratch.  Crawfish stuffed chicken.  Mmmmmm, crawfish is good eating (don't let WE tell you otherwise).  :)


I've posted the butter cream sauce (oh and it's definitely not diet food) and crawfish pie in the recipe forum.

Be sure to try their JoJo's, if they have them.  They're the equivalent of Peppermint Oreos, and OH-SO-TASTY.  I have demanded that my mother send me at least 4 boxes for Christmas.  :p 


My evening? Got off work, took a Messiah-supporting co-worker home from work (he made my car smell like cigarettes... :bawl: but I do it because I'm working on converting him  :evillaugh: ...No, he's really just a good friend, and he needed a ride).  Now, I'm relaxing.

Wow, you did have a good day, and might not have a sore arm tomorrow!

I have to go to Vegas this weekend to visit an eldery snow bird neighbor that slipped and fell on an ice cube at a resturant and broke her hip....she was not in the greatest health to start with, and this might be her last winter here in Nevada (they live in Utah) She is a very dear lady, and this has been very sad. She loves to play Bingo and is laying in a Vegas hospital instead.

While I am in Vegas I will either stop at Trader Joe's or visit a Whole Foods (would be my first time....I am a whole foods virgin) On top of that fact that at Trader Joes I like seeing all the hippie chicks that carry wallets and don't wear bras! It's like DU live!!!

I know a little about flu shots, more then I want to know...hosted two clinics in October, they went so well, we did it again on Tuesday of this week....alot of OLD crabby people!!!  They would show up two hours early for their appointment and then complain they have been there waiting for an hour!!!

OLD BASTARDS  :lmao:

Work brought in some people from a local pharmacy to give anyone that wanted one a free flu shot (well, the company had to pay).  I was an idiot that got it done on my right arm, I'm right handed, so I was suffering the next day.  *mental note:  next year do left arm*

I feel like an utter tool.

We borrowed a vacuum from someone because my Oreck was on the fritz and when I plugged in the spare one it didn't work.  I futzed with it and tried it in two different outlets and it was still dead. Later tonight I glance over at the phone base and none of the lights are on. Turns out during cleaning the little circut breaker on one of the outlets got the "Test" button pushed. So the vacuum was fine... I just tested it on two dead outlets.  :thatsright:

Dinner went well.  I hope the guy takes the job.

:rofl:  There's been a Costco's down the street for quite a while.  Their blackened cajun seasoning is excellent. 

There's a Wild Oats store down in Franklin.  I went there a couple times but wasn't impressed.

Think that would get them here?

Is Knoxville that bad?  I've never stopped there, always passing through.

Nashville is nice, but the real estate market is probably a little weak right now.
