Really high winds today, and of course it was trash day. I looked out this morning and my container had blown over and the top layer was missing! Mostly newspapers and a cereal box. Oops…. later I looked out the back door and there was other people’s papers and trash in my bushes. And 2 big pieces of cardboard. Who puts loose cardboard out on a windy day?. Queen has some nifty lock for the trash container. I’m going to order some. Why does the wind only blow on Trash day?
National Banana Day. And I have no bananas in the house. We have banana pudding in our break room fridge, but that doesn’t appeal to me.
Pineapple Upside-Down Cake Day. I don’t have any of that in the house, either.
National Cheddar Fries Day
National Lima Bean Respect Day. The notion of respecting lima beans sounds so weird to me, I had to look it up and see what it’s about. Here is what it said:
“National Lima Bean Respect Day on April 20th gives the humble lima bean its due. When cooked, fresh lima beans have a creamy texture. However, dried lima beans once cooked serve up a bad reputation due to their graininess. There are ways to achieve smooth, buttery lima beans using dried beans.First, it’s important to sort the beans and discard any wrinkled or cracked beans. Place the beans in a large bowl and cover them with three times as much water as you have beans. If any beans float to the top, immediately discard those, too. Soak the remaining beans overnight. The next day, drain and rinse the beans three times. You want your water to run clear. Place the beans in a heavy saucepan and cover with fresh water. Bring the water to a boil and let simmer for about 1 hour or until the beans are tender. You can add them to other recipes and enjoy. Lima beans are an excellent source of protein, iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc. They can also increase energy levels by helping to restore more iron. Most of us have tried lima beans as a child and didn’t like them. It’s time to give them a second chance as adults. They are delicious in soups, stews, salads, and casseroles, by themselves or mixed with other vegetables.”
Personally, I don’t like lima beans, so I can’t say that I respect them.
I saw my GP last night about these pains. She gave me the printout of the CT scan that was done during kidney time.It’s three pages of doctorese and I understand about 2 words of it. The bottom line is that apparently I have some sort of nodules somewhere in there that might need to be operated on. She ordered a new CT scan and gave me the referral to the gastroenterologist. Oh, goody. More hospital time. Can’t wait.
I’d like to delve into Chesney’s upbringing prior to living in the warehouse. All the loving care given to him and 9 other puddies should have gradually softened his ‘hard’ exterior. Yet he continuously acts out. In spite of that, he’d still be #1 on my adoption wish list ….. Lily #2. I already have an Oliver. ; )
Really, Chesney? There has got to be a better way to celebrate Annie Day than dissing her. (Or destroying pottery.) I’m sure Oliver could think up something. On another note, saw three robins, two ravens, and two rabbits while out walking today.

Toxic people complaints are actually descriptions of the toxic person. Chesney just proved this is true of cats, too.

What a horrible story about the murder! That’s pretty scary.

I’m more like your husband. I prefer plain, bland American food. I don’t do Mexican, Italian or any of that other stuff. Nothing spicy for sure.

You rest more than that. When you get back in (if you ever do) you can clean up the broken vase.
