Wordless Wednesday.

 

Musing For The Day.

 

The 5 Pound Chocolate Bar.

Last night my hubby and I finally went to our belated Valentines dinner, Taking photos of myself now I have to be extra careful to hide my saggy double-chin and "turkey" neck that looks like a wrinkly old twat(I would seriously consider getting a neck lift if I had the $$$) of aging so I have to tilt my head in a certain way and put the camera at a certain angle; photography tricks.. Getting old really sucks!  We had planned on going to Montanas so I could get my jalapeno and cheese antojitos  I love and my hubby his usual chicken strips and fries except when we got to the door we could hear them blaring redneck country music  so absolutely no way! I'd rather cut my ears off! There goes MY appetite, so we just turned around and left and went to Boston Pizza (which was nearby) instead and he got his usual and I got a Penne pasta with a creamy Pesto sauce with mushrooms, spinach and 3 cheeses plus a decadent chocolate mousse & cheesecake with almonds and toffee!(both shown down below) and had enough to bring home for another meal later. The menu print was soooo small as well I couldn't even see it so the waitress brought me a magnifying glass to read it( in the photo down below my hubby took because he thought it was funny) and I really DO need new glasses( the last time I got it was something like over 7 YRS ago but the provincial health coverage doesn't cover eye exams unless you're under 18 or over 65 and glasses cost 300$ or so).

A girl also admired mi dreads and said, "I really like your hair!" and my hubby( who hardly has any hair left now) thought she was talking to him and replied, "Thanks!" and on the way back we shopped and I was hoping to score some Easter chocolate(which has a "special" taste I love)  for my chocolate stash( which is getting low)....but holy shit have they EVER gone waaaaay up in price! The little hollow ones I used to get and that were only 10$ last year are now up to 17$ and as much as I love chocolate I'm still NOT paying 17$ for it so instead I just got 3 little hollow eggs for 3$ each. Seriously though, WTF? My hubby said if all the kids were still young and at home they'd all just be sharing one instead of getting one each with Easter chocolate at that price! 

He also said he got the 26 YR old a 5 POUND chocolate bar as he lost a bet to her: she bet him she'd have her student loan all paid off by a certain date and he doubted she would....and she did ( ha,ha) so he had to buy it for her,and it cost a whopping 75$ (and as much as I LOVE chocolate even  I'd still never pay that!!) only it was just yucky  Hersheys which is gross and would taste like a 5 pound bar of soap. Beja also really missed me and when I got back home he was all excited ,squawking, and bouncing around all over and it was me  he was all over like a cheap suit and NOT my hubby, so I guess he really does love me, and I know I've bonded and connected with him( esp. now the 31 YR old's not here to steal him off me) and now when I look at him my heart "flutters" so I know I love him.

I can still love Buddy,too.

I always will.

I also heard Stairway To Heaven again last night and overnight we got 5-10 cm of snow which really isn't much yet they still cancelled the school buses this morning(I think they really just look for any excuse) and I had a dream that I bled out and I could feel myself getting more and more sleepy and feel the life draining out of me as I faded away, and my hubby said the youngest can't work at the tax place afterall like he'd planned and been hoping as he won't have his ID in time and they even blame me as I'm the one who had his passport( which expired) up in the safe(because when they had his SIN card they lost it 2-3 times) and I "Didn't notice and tell him it had expired" but come on;it's NOT *my* job anymore; he's almost 19 years old! He's an adult now and it's NOT my problem anymore and he has to learn Adulting on his own now and that's part of it, and the 26 YR old has to give a marketing speech at work in front of 500 people,too, and I'd rather die; even in school presenting in front of a class of 40 people I was terrified and would mumble, shake,cough,sniffle, look down at the ground, my nose running.

I also found out it's NOT going to be the break I was hoping for the 2 weeks when my hubby goes to Calgary and BC in June like I thought as he's just going alone and NOT with the youngest as well so I'll still have to cook and do laundry afterall and I won't be here alone with just Beja( awwww.....shit....and I was looking forward to it,too!!) and I heard a radio ad asking people to adopt teens,too, and I thought to myself, "Parents don't even like or want their own  teens so why would they want someone else's?" It's also disappointing that none of our kids have jobs related to their degrees, so it was all just a big waste of time and $$$.

Truth For Today.

 

Clan Loyalty.

Beja is such a diva I have to make his food a certain way( shown above) so he'll eat.

I have to first stick pieces of his fave. turkey to the bottom of the plate and then top it with crumbled ground beef, pork, or turkey I squish down(so he can snuffle in and find the hidden turkey pieces beneath) and then I top it off with more turkey slices on top.

I know, I know. 😂

When I posted it online some troll also said it was "more effort than I made cooking for my kids." Ha,ha, very funny. I just make it with love. That, plus I want him to eat so I do whatever it takes, whatever I have to, and besides, yesterday I cooked grilled chicken breast and hash browns for OUR dinner and tonight it's lasagna, so what's "wrong" with that?

My hubby also "cheated" on Beja the other day when he went out and he knew because he could pick up the scent of the other dog on his coat and shoes(He should pee  on them for "revenge")  and he said, "He's NOT my dog!" but he still IS family.

He has no Clan loyalty.

I would never cheat on him.

The icicle vines at the back are soooo long it also took 2 photos(seen here and below) to get the entire length of it. It's really quite impressive and my hubby saw the dentist yesterday to get his teeth cleaned and they're always talking him into this procedure and that, all this "cosmetic" stuff so he uses up all his employee dental benefits so if he ever needs an emergency dental procedure (the only time I go)done he won't have the coverage. His and the youngest's glasses are also ready for pick-up today, and they called yesterday saying the dishwasher part is in too but they can't come to fix it until next week!

What? next week? 

 I was hoping once it arrived they'd come fix it, you know, like this week, like now, esp. since we've already been waiting  2 weeks and they knew once the part came we were waiting for them to fix it once it arrived, not a week later! 

I hate this half-assed shithole.

My hubby also booked his flight to Calgary for his chess tournament( he has another one next month in Quebec,too) and the greedy f*ckers( as well as charging for checked baggage) are now even charging over 100$ for carry-on now,too, nickel-and-diming you for everything and I bet pretty soon you'll even have to swipe your credit card every time you use the in-flight bathroom,too! I also heard Stairway To Heaven last night and the funny thing too is I woke up right at 3 am as soon as it came on the radio, and  NYC got 60cm of snow in an epic storm and normally they blame us, saying it's "Arctic air from Canada" but this time we never even got any, and I saw a commercial on TV with these 2 guys and I thought to myself, "My God, do they ever look alike! They could be twins!!"....and as it turns out they're on some show called Property Brothers  and are Identical twins so I was right! HA!

Below is also a photo from the 70's which is nostalgic and brings back fond, happy memories of a good time in my life, of my childhood, and I also heard someone remark about someone "She has an 'edge' to her" and I thought it perfectly described me,too.
