Saturday was a bit of a blur for me. I couldn't sleep well Friday night, so most of the day was spent napping in my recliner. It was a rather nice day outside, so I was rather disappointed in myself for not getting outside more.
I really do need to start taking the sleep medicine the doc has prescribed for me. Typically I don't take it because it really does put me out and for some reason I just don't like the feeling of not being able to wake up if "something happens".
This may be just an anxiety thing, leftover from my military and civilian working days, but it always served me well. Although it is probably why I am aged physically beyond my years.
Anyway...
I have been on a bit of a diet lately and although not a total success, I try. Saturday night was homemade pizza night.
The wife and I hit the kitchen. I mostly stood around like a doof, while she did all the cholling and cutting. But we enjoyed the chatting and joking around. After a bit, I went outside for some sun since I hadn;'t been outside much all day.
Taking some time to sit on our back patio is always so enjoyable. Taking in the fresh air, at least as fresh as it can be since we are close to the concrete jungle, and enjoying our flowers.
The wife really out did herself this year with the flowers around the place. We have all kinds. Even a wild flower patch by our shed. I will share some pics in another post down the road once everything starts blooming.
As you can see, the homemade pizza turned out rather good. It tasted even better. We sat down and started binge watching the series PITT. If you haven't watched it yet, think the show ER and 24 together. It can be somewhat intense and I found myself cringing sometimes. So if you have a weak stomach, I don't advise eating while watching it.
Today is now Sunday, MOther's Day here in the States. I will be grilling out for dinner tonight. We have some steaks I plan to put on the grill, along with some other goodies. It will be my first time in forever grillign steaks, and first time ever on this particular grill. I'm a little nervous about it. Steaks aren't cheap these days and don't want to ruin MOther's Day dinner for the wifey.
Wish me luck and Happy Mom's Day to all the Mother's out there.
