What's On Your Monday Menu?
Good Moring Liz and menuers,
OMG Liz this is such exciting news 2 day road trip and meeting the family, how nice. This is like a whirlwind romance. I am glad you are enjoying the ride. It so exciting. I hope your DS warms up quickly because it doesn't look like Mike is going anywhere fast.
Ok after this I probably need to call Ford. They have now had my car for 22 days and have done nothing for me. I absolutely do not feel like a valued customer and I have own a Ford since 1983. Ya think they would do more for me. With that said I put money down on a 2020 orange X2 BMW over the weekend. I just need Ford to get of there asses and buy this lemon back so I can afford it.
QOTD: With people! I hate being alone. I have reserved seats at our local dinner theater before for me and my 50 closest friends. For my birthday every year I like to go to the theater in downtown Pittsburgh for whatever the popular Broadway show is that Christmas and usually have 10-30 guest with me. I have organized glass blowing excursions for more than 50 in my day. I love a crowd. I have even scheduled vacation at the top of spring break and hung out with the crews from MTV who were there filming all the kids. I love crowds. ( but for now that is completely changed.) Only 11 on a wide open deck for the birthday party yesterday. I miss big gatherings.
Accountability: I did as well as could be expected but had a birthday party I made 2 Cheesecakes for and I absolutely had to try them One was expresso and the other peanut butter. The peanut butter was a fail. It had a brownie crust and I misread the direction. You were supposed to cook the brownie before you added the cheese cake and I thought you cooked it all together so the bottom turned into lava with Reese's swimming in it. It wasn't a terrible problem to have but now I'll have to try it again because I need to know what it should have been.

Before my mom bought her Kia she wanted a Ford. We went and looked and the dealership treated us like trash...my mom was able to pay in full(after my grandparents died she got a little bit of inheritance that helped) but I guess they thought we were just trash. We'll likely never go back to ford because the other dealership here is pretty rotten too. I really hope it gets cleared up soon and you get your bmw! Good luck!

Before I married my husband, I brought him with me for support to trade in my old car a newer car. Went to a dealership and the salesman kept talking to my boyfriend, even though I made it clear that I was purchasing the car; I had to correct him several times! I ended up going through the fleet manager because as it turns out, my dad was good friends with him. Went from the worst experience to the best experience... I have purchased 2 more from the fleet directly and haven't had any issues since.
Hoping that things go better with you from Ford. Fingers toes and eyes (at least temporarily) crossed...
Liz, I am enjoying following along with you and Mike! I hope you have a great time!
QOTD-I don't really like crowds, but do enjoy the company of family and friends. My friend recently pointed out to me that I always need an "escape plan" - meaning I always have an excuse ready if i decided to leave the party or whatever early!! We used to live together, and I always had to make sure that I was the last car in the driveway! I guess she was right!
B-hot black tea
L-2 large meatballs and sauce
D-air fryer chicken breast and veg
Have a good day everyone!

Enjoy your time!
TSS: not there yet!!! Still Pre-op!
Breakfast: roasted veggie omelette

Snack: Protein Shake
I am exactly as you are that I enjoy spending time by myself and don't mind doing things on my own, but I depending on the situation, I am perfectly happy being around other people. so I would say 60% home and 40% with others.
Have the best time Liz!!
qotd - I like people. I miss people. I've always known I would never make it as a recluse! (That's not to say that I'm not very self entertaining!). I am dreading it getting cold and the option of socially distant outdoor get togethers going away.
The next couple of weeks at work are going to be crazy busy but I am doing my best to keep this Friday free of meetings so I can do some offline work and then same the next Friday. So far, it's looking good. One day a week without zoom meetings, is that too much to ask?
menu today has been/will be:
coffee + half and half x 3
carbmaster cottage cheese + 1 dried dog and half oz hazelnuts
costco chicken skewers for lunch
jalapeno buffalo cheddar bratworst
although it's still summer hot, it's seems like fall is coming fast - skinny syrups sent out their pumpkin themed offerings, and true nutrition has their gingerbread and eggnog flavors for their protein powders. I am hoping for a long fall (but with rain! We need rain)
happy Monday all!
