CHILI DAY – OK


 

 

 

  Today I plan to make chili for supper. I haven’t made it for a long time. I will have to go food shopping as I am missing most of the ingredients. I have to go out anyways as I need to go to the bank and postoffice. I will go out much later as I want to go on the treadmill before. Yesterday I went to the ear, nose and throat doctor., He said all is well thank goodness. He suggested I drink more water so my mucous will be "thinner."
Then I went to get my passport renewed. I was surprised that I only waited a half hour. They will mail it to me so I don’t even have to go back.
Next I met my cousin for lunch. I had to go pick her up because her car was impounded. Her son was driving her car without a valid license. My poor cousin has been taken to the poor house because of this son. When her husband died he left a lot of money. She was depressed so her son took over her finances. He spent most of her money and is still "borrowing" money so she has little left. I feel sad for her. I wonder when she’ll cut him off for good. He reminds me a lot of my brother.
I went to the bookstore because I wanted to find some tour guides from New York. In the end I bought nothing as I can look everything up online. I tried to find a hotel to stay at in New Jersey not far from New York but so far no luck. I will ask a friend but she is in Florida now.
Slowly we are getting ready for Florida. Of course a  visit to all our doctors comes first. I still have to go to the dentist and eye doctor.
Last night I couldn’t sleep so I tidied up the kitchen table and book shelves nearby. I didn’t get rid of much but it looks a lot cleaner.
Time for breakfast. Have a good one.

Chili, yum! Have you ever tried chicken chili? I have made it twice now and the whole family loves it.

Nothing thrill me more than a thorough visit to a bookstore, although I have recently discovered a few great online bookstores. So you’re heading off to Florida? Will that be a winter visit? How great for you!

Half an hour for a new passport, that’s amazing! ryn1: The ROM is on Bloor Street just west of Bay Street. ryn2: Yeah, lots of my faves are having difficulties. One moved to Canada from New Zealand and is so depressed because she can’t find work – after months and months. Another just had a miscarriage. Another’s daughter has run away from home. Another’s son almost just died. Another’s husband refuses to work OR help at home, while she works and takes care of the three kids. Another is dealing with grief from a lost husband. Another’s grandfather just died. Stressful, sad times for so many, it seems!
