Busy, forgetting

[unicornduke]

I'm heading to my parents later today. I made granola, emptied the dishwasher this morning before work. I was out and about all day yesterday, and the day before for work. Spent the morning yesterday laying out tarps and moving sandbags. Not too sore but I'm definitely feeling it from shearing still. 

I was so excited last night to make a casserole thing for dinner for a few nights, brown rice, ricotta, jalapeno cheese kielbasa, some vegetables and some more cheese. I was really tired last night, laid down in bed and went to sleep. Forgot the casserole on the counter overnight, so I tossed it this morning. Really irritating because it was super tasty. I'm sure some people would still eat it but my stomach is delicate and it seems like a bad idea. 

I need to run and get dog food after this morning's work meeting, so I'm going to stop by the grocery store and pick up more ricotta. The rice is cooked already and I'll mix and bake the same thing tonight at my parents. 

Things I'm taking off my plate for next year: growing garlic at my parents. Good source of extra money, hard to sustain so far away. 

Things to do this weekend: apply for tractor operator job that looks interesting (close by, offers benefits, better pay plus overtime)

I have forgotten tasty food more than once. It’s always regrettable to throw that big dish of yumminess out and one of the reasons I keep thinking about having a pig or two.

Good luck on the tractor job! Overtime is nice!

Having to toss food is way better than even mild food poisoning, especially give the extra risks to hospitals these days.

Hurah, prospect of better pay plus benefits!

Also, yay, figuring out limits of time/effort.
