Wow that sounds kinda wrong...jes how I like it!
Today I COOKED. Like seriously. I got a Coq au vin recipe online and did the do. It's in the crockpot.
Humorous hightlights?
When I realized the whole chicken I bought needed to be in PIECES...lmao. Chicken and I had a come-ta-Jesus about that, then Mr Cleaver (and I do NOT mean Ward ladies n germs...) had the last word. It was a bit like a murder scene in my kitchen for a bit...but it is good for working out any issues one has...hacking into a lifeless semi frozen body. MWAH HA HA!! *evil grin*
Another? When I realized my heretofore useful and hardy corkscrew was BROKEN. Mind racing for a way to pull the cork. I mean the screw part went in but the counter leverage thingy was just flat busted. No can do pulling a cork with mere force of will. You know who saved the frickin day again? MR CLEAVER! That guy is awesome! I wrapped the bottle then hacked thru the neck. Nice clean break....strained the wine thru my strainer to make extra sure I don't serve any shardage...dare I laugh evilly yet again...I dare...MWAH HA HA!!
Mr Cleaver and I got to know each other really well today...long over due. I mean I have had it for yeaaaaaars and never used it. His edge was still keen and ready for the kill. Lucky!!
Now last night wasn not great as far as Mr and Mrs goes...we needed to talk and we did but I still feel a bit like things are "off" on some level...needs to get that sorted. One shouldn't let things fester and abcess.
Elias brought home a project last night that floored us both. It looked like another child had done it. Cutting? done almost perfectly and on the lines Coloring? multiple colors in areas that made sense, details covered, in the lines Gluing? done fabulously...things were in a nice arrangement and the three lil pigs were looking fine. PROGRESS!! EXULTANT ULULATION COMMENCE!! well, maybe that's the wine there...but anyhow...it was really beautiful and I will keep it always.
I had him do his 5x each spelling on his own the other night and it was also, amazingly improved. Letters of a size, all in a row...ON THE LINE. You guys, that's a major major deal....he worked steadily until he was done...even when I offered a break. Good gawd!
Coming down of the pill is still an issue...but might always be for him. He rages out a bit lol....but last night the hubs had had enough and sent him to his room where he proceeded to smack the door..oh HELL no!! Hubs quite brilliantly suggested as allow the puppy to deal with that..lol. So we did...we opened the door....dodged the shrapnel and shoved in the pup LMAO. Willing sacrifice people....
Raging Elias upon the door opening..."WHAT ARE YOU DOING OPENING MY DOOR...I AM MAD AND I DON'T..." upon seeing the puppy "Hi RC! You wanna play on my bed??" both emerged shortly and if Elias had a tail he'd have been wagging it, fo' sho...
Miraculous healing...Benny Hinn got nothing on RC. Lemme tell ya so!
Reckon I've rabbited on long enough today. Lord I hope that dish comes out okay and that everyone likes it. I doubt the kids will...but hey there's always hot dogs right?? ;o)
