Hey Everyone
Well.. here we are on another rainy freaking day ya’ll.. and it is cold to boot! I think there is a possibility of sketchy weather maybe tonight/tomorrow- I know my mom had posted it on her facebook at one point. BLEH.Oh, and of course this week was a Monday holiday and a paycheck and i’ll let you do the figuring on that… I’m actually going to go to the store this weekend/early next week and do a big batch of freezer meals so I have to get to planning those. The funny thing is if I wanted to duplicate our previous menu I still have the exact list I used – I need to type all that up and save it for the future-because I could very well loose the scraps of paper- but I am wanting to mix it up a little bit so it won’t work for me this go around 🙂
Last time I wrote about David’s check being late I got trolled – that and about me and my sleep patterns- It isn’t that david isn’t working every day- hell he worked almost a whole day of overtime Saturday- it just when holidays fall on mondays checks end up being a day or so behind because time doesn’t get put in on time and sent to the main office. Oh, and it isn’t so much that I have problems actually sleeping at this point in time- it has evolved into where I tend to end up with too much sleep -esp. this time of year.
The worst is that little patch of time when David leaves for work until I get up- I really don’t have anything I want to get up and do at 5 a/m and it is pitch black dark and cold so.. yeah. I hadn’t mentioned this before- about being trolled- honestly that crap is so OLD i didn’t think anyone did it anymore – who has the time right? Oh and if you don’t like someones freaking blog click the freakin X you know? The internet is big enough for us all am i right? There was some more too it other than that but that is the gist of things! This is why the heck I haven’t had comments enabled on the blog in almost 2 years-except on maybe a handful of posts – it isn’t like anyone ever comments on anything unless they have something to bitch about anyways so..
Oh, and thanks to the recent trolling I have pretty well every word on earth blocked from being able to be commented on on my facebook page so essentially you can’t comment on it at all.. there you go. The funniest thing either was that it was one person that was emailing me with multiple names on both of my emails (pretty easy to figure out with my mail tracker/ they kept saying things that the other one had said) and that they said I needed help and they would contact my family or professionals for me. I was like OOK. I talk to my mother DAILY (actually even when My mom and I get in little arguments every rare moon- I still talk to her once a day at least. Only ONE day ever did I not talk to her and that was when her and my dad were dealing with his mom dying and I kept missing her being at my my grandmas that day somehow another) Lord knows I might need a professional at some points with shit I put up with and deal with but in the long run i’m a happy go lucky person and a grateful person.. so if you don’t like me .. Go the heck on!
Anyways, I have been holding that in for a good whileI am in a freezer cooking club called the Lazy Day Cooking club and it has been really awesome and if I had an actual link to give you I would. Just go on facebook and find Eating on A Dime and you should be able to find it from there. it is $9.99 a month for 20 recipes right now but I think it is going up after thanksgiving significantly – Between it and about 25 other recipes that I had collected via my mom a while back- we aren’t even really sure because I just found them in my recipe file- I know they were from her but we aren’t really sure of where they came from or why I had a copy and she didn’t lol.
I know a couple of summers ago she made us both up some freezer meals when we were looking at houses and that is when she gave them to me but other than that I’m not sure. We used some of them when she was having hand surgery and made up meals again and that is how I got back into this- then low and behold i found the Lazy Day cooking club and .. . now i’m really into it! It is really nice to just throw something in the slow cooker/ instant pot and be done with it- and have a variety… sometimes maybe too much ha ha. I made 20 meals in this batch and it took me a little over 3 hours- that includes cutting up meats , veggies, etc and for someone who did it all by herself I think that was a decent time. I actually did 18 and then the Salisbury steak one I had to make those up in throws of my migraine/earache fiasco because I didn’t want my HB meat to go bad (it was fresh ,and at that point I Had about 3 days to get it made or frozen plain or loose it)
I’ll see about writing you up a menu and post some pics and such about everything at some point in the next little bit if I can. Heck it might run into the next batch so we’ll see. I do mean to post more stuff here and pics and such but it just never seems to be something I can follow through with for some stinkin reason! right now with not really being in an online mood well .. I just am thinking of anything to mix things up here on the site. I’m def. hoping to put up some writing prompts and book related posts. Eventually some AW summaries and maybe get back into the regular coupon posts eventually (whenever I get back into that.. might be the spring) I always want to post some thrift shop finds – lately i’m on a CD/DVD /MISC kick so we’ll see what I can back track and do. I am pretty sure I won’t be out this week with my mom or next because she’ll be out of town then- but I might get out with David at some point next week so we’ll see
So I hadn’t wrote a long post here in a while.. .and I had a few min so there you go! I hope to perk thing up a bit as I can.. just reading and such is more my thing right now .. I got to learn to mix things up 🙂
