Not much going on around here right now but I am going to post anyway.
Last night we tried something new for dinner. We had Tilapia fish and some shrimp that we cooked on the grill. It turned out well and we will definitely try it again. We marinated the fish in Dale’s Seasoning and sprinkled the shrimp with Cajun Seasoning. We served it with rice. Very tasty. This morning I stepped on the scale and lost 3 pounds from yesterday. I told SoGent that we need to have fish every night. His response was “Tonight we will have it in the form of spaghetti.”
Shortly after dinner Drama Queen received a call asking her to babysit for a couple that lives around the corner. They have 2 girls and the oldest one was in Hurricane A’s class at school. The youngest from what I understand is a whirlwind. DQ has only babysat for 2 other couples and they were both younger kids. This was her first experience with older children. She got her firsthand taste of children not listening. She faired well though. The mother actually called me this morning to say what a good job Drama Queen did and would I mind if she used her again sometime. I said of course not but it remains to be seen if DQ will want to.
The house was quite with the kids gone. Since my house was cleaned yesterday by me “cleaning lady” I didn’t have much to do. SoGent and I sat down and he watched TV while I played solitaire on my laptop. Exciting I say. At about 9:00 we retired to our room to watch more TV while getting more comfortable. We are currently watching King of Queens on DVD. We started Season 8 last night. The first episode was hilarious. I laughed so hard I was crying. The girls arrived home about this time. We sent them upstairs so we could go to sleep. Again, it was so exciting. Wish you could have been there.
