Friday Naps

Two naps each seems about right. Well, my body thought so today. 

The food boxes we picked up went mostly to my neighbor whose father died. She is raising two little boys, about 4 and 2. She was happy to see milk and hotdogs and meatballs from our box, plus a whole box of her own with hotdogs, meatballs, milk, 12 yoplait yogurts, two quarts half and half milk, pound of mozarella, two bags salad, doughnuts, oranges, cabbage, potatoes, onion. 

Tommy is going to wash the poop off my blue bird. For three days now. He is dallying. So, I put it on his sink. Do you think he will remember now? 

After my last nap, I wanted a tomato for the salad, so we went to Publix and I bought two tomatoes, grape tomatoes, one navel orange, can of chicken broth, on half gallon milk, and a piece of carrot cake. 

I have not had a navel orange in ages, and I love them. However, I don't buy them because I don't need the fiber. The broth is to drink tonight, maybe instead of dinner. And, the carrot cake was there. 

I am limp, so I have to go.

    2. Perfect answer about the carrot cake!!! I also have to draw my husband's attention to things he promised he would do. Sometimes I put the item in his recliner. He gets the hint.

      Try as I might I pretty much can't avoid a daily nap. I really don't want one because it interferes with falling asleep at night, but every afternoon I lay on the couch to read and after about an hour my eyes close against my will. I guess I could get up and jog around the block, but that's not going to happen.

    3. Anne,
      Since I have chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, it seems the nap is inevitable. Right! No jogging or even walking for me. Around the block? Not even to the end of the short driveway.

  3. PS- I’m the opposite of you, I need the fiber.

    1. Rhonda,
      I need it, too, very much. But, with gastroparesis, I should not have much.

  4. Someone enjoys carrot cake; sometimes when I go shopping I get him a piece.

    1. Urspo,
      I am surprised I did not buy chocolate...lol. This is the only piece I have ever bought. Looking back, I suppose it was because I was ill. I am sure Someone is pleased as punch when you buy carrot cake for him.
