Adventures in stir fry with book choy

Bok choy*
Auto correct keeps giving me a hard time, lol.

I got to ride in matts new car that he bought a few days ago for his new self employment type job. It's nice, and brings back memories of riding in dads manual transmission car. My head kept getting reacquainted with the headrest - Matt is just not at all used to driving it yet, so it's really jerky. He took me to IHOP this morning. It took me an hour to get out of bed and get dressed. I did not want to get up at 10:30, not at all, but food was a good idea.

For the record, I spent $60 this week to get the lawn mowed. Relly left me with $40 but I found a 20 behind my cubby so I had enough to cover it.  Matt paid for food at the restaurant.

I tried to tell him about the place with chicken and waffles and he interrupted me and talked for a while about how we need to find a new Chinese restaurant that doesn't cost him $30 a meal. When I steered the conversation back to why I was talking about the restaurant whose name I forget that I also don't remember the location of, I got to chicken and waffles and he interrupted again to let me know that relly had already told him about it. I think the look on my face was enough to show it was a little frustrating trying to talk to him when he wouldn't let me speak.  So he -let- me finish telling him about it anyway, and then we discussed what he's actually looking for in chicken and waffles. Which is chicken strips and fluffy but crisp waffles.

I am really enjoying the new show I started watching. It really watches like a soap opera, but it feels very wholesome, so I indulge. It makes me cry on occasion, but it also makes me laugh so hard too.  It's called Switched at Birth. And it's real and it brings up important issues but without shoving them down your throat. Which I very much enjoy.

I started my period today, and started the day with ibuprofen before breakfast due to some mild cramping. Had some more when I was cooking dinner for some mild back pain. Had a protein shake as well just in case.  Other than that and the occasional overwhelming emotion, it's been not so bad so far.

In fact, I might even say today had been a good day.

I painted two seahorse paintings, I made some delicious stir fry, and I enjoyed my tv show. I went out of the house, painted my nails, and took a nice shower. Last night I read my book for a while.

Tomorrow I plan to finish repairing the whip. I would like to mail it on Monday, if we have the address. Need to let her know not to throw it by the hanging cord as it cannot support the kinetic (?) force.

And I am going to have another delicious sandwich tomorrow with onions and cheese and salt and vinegar potato chips. Because they are awesome.
