PLANS FOR THE DAY
It’s a warm, sunny day. I have a lot to do. I woke up early so my meatballs are already cooking. I have to keep a close watch so they don’t burn.
I have so much ready for Passover already. I already made my chicken soup, knaidles and meatballs. Everything is in the freezer. Soon we will go to the mall and I will buy some more meat. I was trying to skimp but hubby is right. I will need more. So I will buy a pickled tongue and a brisket!
I still haven’t heard from my niece in Toronto. Passover is next Monday. Anyhow I am preparing enough in case they come. Luckily I am getting help. Hubby’s cousin is sending up a lot of prepared food. BLESS HER! My cousin is sending desert.
I still have to make my turkey, brisket and pickled tongue. Everyday I am cooking something so it will be easy at the end. Tomorrow I will prepare the meat I buy today. Thursday my cleaning lady will be here and we will change the dishes.
When I mention to friends that this might be the last Passover I make they tell me not to say that. I don’t know why! I have done it for many years. What’s the problem if I want to give it up?????? Maybe they are supersticious and think that if I say I don’t want to make it something will happen and I won’t be able to.
We also plan to go over to the condo although I’m not looking forward to it. We have to change some of the tiles in one bathroom. Did I tell you we have three??? I would change all the tiles but hubby won’t want to spend the money. I don’t understand. When others move they CHANGE and DO whatever they need/want to. I am not counting their money but why do they renovate everything and anything and my hubby only does what is absolutely necessary?????????? It is so frustrating. I guess I will just agree with whatever. Just like I have been doing my whole life with him. I just don’t have the energy to fight with him. I just don’t understand why he only does patchup work. I told him often that in this house I want to do whatever is necessary and not just patchup. BUT IN THE END HE WINS!!!!!!! I give in because he know our finances and I don’t!
Tonight I am going to celebrate a friend’s 65th birthday. Another friend is picking me up. I have known these women about 30 years. We don’t get together too often. but I am going to talk to them about starting a WOMAN’S SUPPORT GROUP. I would like to meet with them at least once a month to just talk.
I have to look for a book to read so maybe I’ll do that now. I was reading two books but so far they haven’t really caughht my attention. I’ll have to browse through the books on my KINDLE.
I guess that’s about it.
a woman’s support group sounds like a good idea. my husband had control of the finances and did only what he wanted to do when it came to repairs and replacing things around the house. i had no say. if you don’t want to do passover anymore, i think you should just stop. it’s no fun when it’s a thing you feel obligated to do. take care,
