Loose lens Monday




Sometimes I wonder if the world is trying to tell me to get contacts, contact lenses. I have never seriously ever concerned contact lenses just because of my propensity to lose stuff especially small things. A contact lens is the size of a fingertip and two of them just increases the probability that I would lose them even quicker. I say this because for no apparent reason this afternoon run the lenses fell out of my new set of glasses that I got from Walmart a few weeks ago, remember? I was so proud of myself getting the glasses finally getting them to a point where they would be all together. Well that's not happening I guess not to me anyway. I think whatever I get glasses wise will be defeated until I said come to the world of fate and get contact lenses. I will continue to kick the Pricks because I can't see myself getting in contacts for all the stress that it would cause me. So now on my living things to do this week is going to be heading up the street to the Walmart and the optometrist that lives there. At least, now I have a place to go to complain and hopefully have them reset the lens and screw them in tight this time. Now I might circumvent this by seeing if my friend DJ who lives upstairs still has her glass repair set. I've never seen her kit but she says she has one and I totally believe her and I totally believe she knows how to use it. Maybe sometime tomorrow afternoon I'll consider contacting DJ see if she can secure the lens back into the frames. No I'm not doing this in the morning just because it's Tuesday and I'll have my assist meeting tomorrow, the first time in 2 weeks. I don't anticipate a lot of documents to sign but I'm sure they'll be a good number. I'm so looking forward to meeting the group again and getting back to work.


I cooked today. I've been hankering homemade chili for some reason the last couple days. Possibly because I ran across the YouTube or reels or something that gave a good example of how to make quick chili. I was surprised how simple that it was and that that I actually had all the ingredients to put together a chili. So after getting my Monday morning routine out of the way and get dressed and ready for the day. I went through my cans to see what I had found the number of cans of chili beans as well as what I really needed was a can of ground beef- which I found! I've never really used ground beef as ground beef before so I figured it'd be a lot easier than defrosting the ground beef I have in the refrigerator freezer. Sure enough it worked. I was a little concerned about it not messing with the other ingredients but I was wrong. I chopped up the onion, threw it inside two and some hot peppers, threw in some chili powder and Sue everything into the crock pot and put it to cook, which it did really well. Around 5:00 I actually finished the project and filled up a bowl of chili  watch the news. At that point I thought I had turned the Shelly off because I wanted to make sure it would be cold enough to handle to put away later on in the evening. About a half an hour ago I checked to make sure it was cooling off and guess what I had not turned the chili off! I thought that I had but no it's hot it's not smells real good still tastes really good but there's no way I'm going to be able to manhandle that into the refrigerator by the time it's bedtime and I'm not going to wait up for it to cool down. I'm going to take my chances and keep it out all night in as early as I get up tomorrow morning throw it in the refrigerator and hope for the best…
