Let the Sun Shine In

With Marcel being sick and not wanting or feeling like getting out of the house, that has meant that unless I want to walk somewhere that my travels have come to a halt. I don’t mind, since the truth is, the weather hasn’t been very conducive to getting out and checking out any of the daily deals that can be found at some of our local stores. Now that the sun is shining though, I can’t help but be tempted to get out and see what I can find, but a whining doggie and a pot of soup that needs to be made await me instead.

I had some really fabulous soup at my friend Bobbi’s on Tuesday and I’m going to make it for Marcel and I tonight. It’s roasted bell pepper soup, and it’s some of the best soup I’ve ever eaten. I’ll share the recipe later. First, I’d better get outside with JJ before he has another accident.

One of Those Days

Ever have one of those days when it seems like if something can go wrong, it will? I guess I’m having one of those since it seems like everything is going wrong today. I almost fell when I was outside with JJ, (luckily I didn’t) and about 20 minutes after I changed his bedding this morning, he decided he wanted to have a potty break on his clean blankets. He hasn’t done this in ages, and it had to happen then. I was frustrated to say the least.

I did notice when I was out walking with him a little earlier that there are some new steel buildings being built not too far from here. I didn’t see any signs, so I’m not sure what they’re going to be used for and of course I’m curious.

At least the sun is shining and streaming through the windows making everything toasty warm. I even turned out the heater. I’m basking in the glow as I type this, and soaking up every little bit of Vitamin D I can get.
