the company i keep

I discovered that Stop and Shop carries the Tazo unsweetened passion tea concentrate, so I bought it and a container of Newman's Own pink lemonade, and today I mixed them over ice and it was delicious! Definitely recommended. I might even make the lemonade myself at some point, but the Newman's was on sale, so it seemed like a good deal.

I also got a box of Jiffy because I just want some damn corn muffins and nothing else I've tried has turned out well, so we'll see if it really does work.

That's my exciting Friday night. *g*

I did end up going to bed super early last night - I hit the sack at 8:30 pm and slept, with minor interruptions, until 8 am, and it was fantastic. I don't know why I was so exhausted yesterday, but I'm glad I didn't try to fight it like I normally would to stay up until my usual bedtime.

My meetings next Tuesday have all been cancelled, so I've added the day to my vacation next week, so I'll be in Monday and then done until the next Monday. I also discovered I had booked 2 separate optometrist appointments, so I cancelled the one next Thursday and will go in August as usual.

My plan this weekend is to bake a blueberry crumb cake* to take to my brother's on Sunday for our birthday bbq, and then make a key lime pie for myself on Tuesday, since my birthday is Wednesday. I haven't figured out what I'll make myself for dinner, but that is always the less important part of things to me. As long as I have a good birthday dessert, the dinner can be anything.

*Note: it will be an orange blueberry crumb cake since my sister does not like lemon. We'll see how it goes!

I am also once again waiting for the cleaning service to let me know if they are coming on Monday or not. They did not come this past Monday since I said it wouldn't work for me, but then there was radio silence, so today I reached out again, but have not gotten an answer. I appreciate the work they do immensely. I just wish they were better at communicating!
