1. Our original plan was to have a family dinner late this afternoon. Sadly, a bug struck Christy down and we all agreed to enjoy our dinner on Thursday instead. Christy told Carol and me she needed chicken soup and a dozen eggs and I went over to Yoke's and took care of her request and put her groceries on her porch.
2. I also stopped in at Beach Bum Bakery. I decided it would be fun to try Rebekah's potato bread. I also indulged and bought myself an oatmeal raisin and a ginger molasses cookie.
These were awesome purchases. As I hoped, the toast I made with the potato bread was out of sight and I love Rebekah's cookies.
3. Suddenly this afternoon I became groggy. I was working on the Strands puzzle and kept falling asleep in my chair and I decided I'd rather fall asleep in the prone position, so I joined Copper in the bedroom, crawled under the covers, enjoyed having Copper press against my lower leg, and I fell into a blissful coma nap.
It took me a while to pry myself out of bed once I woke up.
I fixed a cup of black tea with milk, returned to my chair, and after a few hours of staring at the puzzle, trying to concentrate, and repeatedly falling asleep, I finally solved Strands!
What does it say about this oddball day that finally solving a Times puzzle was the day's highlight? Or was it those delicious cookies? Or that superb potato bread toast?
Ha!
