So I was all set to come here today and tell you I had tried one of the chicken recipes you all had recommended in the comments to this post, so you wouldn't think I'd been wasting your time. Only I went back to see who had recommended this recipe and, um, no one did. I have no idea where I got that link. NONE.
Still, I highly recommend it. Sunday, I'll try one of the dishes you folks suggested. I PROMISE.
In other news, I told Susie about the stray sock incident at the dentist yesterday and she said, "Well, at least you didn't have your pants on backwards!" That kid has way too good a memory, is what I'm thinking. Also, she's right, that would have been worse.
Yes, the pants-backward thing really happened. I'm not proud of it, but there you are.

I'm not an organized person.
Instead, I grabbed my wallet, credit card holder, pill holder (with my Excedrin Migraine in it), 2 pens, and a tube of Carmex and threw them in the new purse. Then I headed out to wherever I was going, enjoying the feel of a MUCH lighter purse on my shoulder. Of course, this means I'll spend the next 2 weeks pillaging the old purse for whatever I find myself missing.
So that's how I ended up at Knit Night yesterday evening with nary a tape measure or stitch marker in my bag. It was a little disconcerting, but I soldiered on. And when I got home? I took the tape measure and the little stitch marker box from the fall (dusky purple) purse and put them in the mid-winter (hot pink) purse. So, yeah, it's a system of sorts. Just not a very good one, I guess...
Like ...... Every time you move you lose a quarter of your stuff. Which is why my boss made one of our co-workers move his office twice, shedding files both times, and then the best thing happened - he left our company - 100% mess reduction.
ReplyDeleteDon't lose the car keys.
I lose them every single day. Brian gave me Tile, because he was tired of looking for them.
DeleteI like the hot pink purse winter cheer up purse idea. I have a sequinny one I may move to now. That Thai noodle bowl recipe I sent you- my sister's family and our family have it on heavy rotation so I hope it works for you. Don't skimp on the lime wedges at the end though. You need them.
ReplyDeleteI keep intending to clean out my purse while I sit in the car during Irish dancing class. I've even considered jazzing things up and switching to a different purse. I cringe at the thought though, because I seem to have a similar system as you do. I end up at a store to return something and realize the receipt is in the old purse. Hate that. Anyway, I haven't been able to clean out my purse because I keep sleeping while the kids are in dancing. Last night I slept for an hour and 45 minutes. My car was running. In a parking lot. Then I came home and slept 8 hours. You would think all that sleep would help me ditch my week long headache, but this one is a hanger-on-er. Unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteHa! I actually fell asleep for 20 minutes with the car running this week, too! (I mean, I was parked, but still...) I've never, ever done that before.
DeleteNice purse!
