Flat Tires and Sierra Returns to Work

Sunday, October 13

Sunday, Eric and I went to Bro. Bob's Connection Group.  For the morning service, I worked in the baby/toddler nursery.

For lunch, I made Rustic Italian Tortellini Soup.  It was a beautiful day and I had my lunch outside on the patio.

Sierra and Summer worked on nine-week tests on the patio.  Summer had to finish a book for a report, so I kept her home in the evening.  Sierra went to Youth Group.

Monday, October 14

Monday was the last day of the first nine weeks of our school year—day 43.  


Having my breakfast and vitamins.


Sierra also returned to work at Chick-fil-A, which had been shut down for months for a huge remodel and recently reopened. Today, she worked from 8 to 3 p.m. Summer and I went down to see her.  I had the banana pudding milkshake and Summer had the coffee drink.


Chunky monkey sleeping. :)





Corned beef and cabbage for dinner. Mmm!

What a start to this day.  



This memory came up on my Facebook. Of course, it had me in tears.  Just remembering this memory one year ago.


Oh Max.  I miss you, buddy.

Eric went to leave for work.  He had a completely flat tire.  A nail/screw in it.  He took my Jeep and left for work.





I called Roadside Assistance, and he came to put the spare on it. I went to Discount Tire. I already knew my tires were going to need new ones very soon. He checked them, and they were at 3/32. I just pulled the trigger and had new ones installed, along with new lug nuts, which I had some cracking.  A hefty bill, $802, but you just know that's adulting.  Now all three vehicles have new or almost new tires from Discount Tire and are covered under their warranty for repairs and rotations.  I really like them.  They are a good company to work with.

That took up a large chunk of my day just getting that taken care of.  But it is done! 

I also went to the chiropractor and had my weekly visit.


When I got home, I made Zuppa Tuscana soup for dinner.

The girls had soccer practice at 7pm.

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. (I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.).  Season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.  In another bowl, combine the crackers and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan.
