I've really come to like the solitude which prevails the apartment once I turn the flat screen off for the day. I don't know why it always strikes me as soon as the silence is and why I don't do it sooner. I think I'm just a weak vessel and like to have the noise and the images on the screen doing my regular waking hours. I washed way too much marble today a couple of the old movies of The Avengers. I would have felt overly guilty had I not met the kids for breakfast this morning and had some good interaction with the guys. Jackson and Jasmine came over to the apartment following the breakfast and put some time into cleaning up the place a little bit which I totally appreciate. I had told them about the trauma I had earlier in the week with the spilled apple juice and punctured Cola bottle and upturned clam chowder. I told them I tried to clean up the mess and they were really surprised when they came in and saw before looking as good as it did. They of course went over the floor again with a good broom as well as the sweeper are Swifter and now the floors look really clean.
I don't know what got into me but somewhere along the line I really got a hankering for a toasted cheese sandwich. Maybe it was because I didn't want to lose any more cheese like I did the last month and not use my cheese up fast enough. I also had a couple slices of spam left over from last week's spam chunk. I found my bag of white bread and it was still viable so I put a couple pinches of cheese on top of the pieces of bread followed by a chunk of spam and then toasted the mess up. I have to admit maybe shredded cheese is not the best form of cheese to use for making toasted cheese sandwiches but the sandwich was good enough. It kind of held it together as best as I could and finally that she's melted enough to keep the rest of it together. I tried to butter the tops as best as I could kind of made a mess that way but in the end turned out to be a nice little sandwich. Had I done it right I would have heated up one of the cans of tomato soup I have in the pantry. I have quite a few cans of tomato soup so really should be making toasted cheese a lot more than I have been. I listened excitedly to the evening local news especially the weather forecast looks like we're going to get temperatures up to nearly 70° in the next couple of days that will be great! This week I have a couple meetings in the city so it shouldn't be too bad traveling. I'm sure I'm going to be able to keep dry and be in the warm temperatures for this travel. I think cooler weather is coming in next weekend again and we're going to have some more cool wet days shouldn't last much longer though the warm days of spring are definitely here.
