Slowly returning to the world of the living...

I spent most of Saturday in bed and made it to church yesterday.  I decided NOT to try to go to the baseball game because it would have ruined everyone's fun if I'd a fallen out in the middle of the game.


It was a shame though.  Yesterday was a beautiful day.  Warm but with a cool breeze.  Bright sun.  Still the pollen, but no count is more like 2000 parts per square inch rather than the 5 billion parts last week when even my cats turned green.


Today is a "day off," but it's a "clean the house that has been neglected since Christmas" day off.  Since I'm still a little tired, I'm moving slowly, but I'm working....


I didn't sleep well last night because the cold medicine gave me weird dreams.  One of them was that two cats were fighting on top of my head.  Oh no, wait... that really happened.  Our cat Mars and my son's cat Kay (Mars' daughter) got into fight in the middle of the night.  On my pillow.  On my head.  We have too many damn cats.


So now, I'm moving... sort of...


I'm making rainbow lamb korma for dinner.  I started with a simple "convenience food" recipe from some magazine... Good Housekeeping, I think.  I'm cooking the lamb cubes and a jar of korma sauce in the crock pot for the rest of the day.  Later, I'll add fresh veggies.  The recipe called for microwave frozen green beans and carrots, but the produce was pretty this morning, so I got small yellow and green squash, baby carrots, and red, yellow and orange bell peppers.  See, no blue, but I'm making a salad with purple  & green lettuce, raddichio, shredded carrots, grape tomatoes & broccoli slaw mix.  The korma will go over whole wheat couscous.


We'll see how well this goes over.  Mark and Joseph aren't sure they like lamb very much.  They can have hot pockets if they want.  Whatever.


I need to go wash some dishes then maybe take a little nap.


Or maybe I'll nap then wash some dishes...
