Day 209: Garbageday, got together the garbage and recycling this week, had enough to put both out, lucky us. Not so lucky was Eddie Van Halen, one of the most awesome musicians on the planet... He passed away this morning, the big C... Fuck 2020 is really blowing hard. Our day wasn't as bad all things considered. Boy was fed and pushed out the door, only on breakfast this morning... He set an alarm for 5am but slept right through it. I was all wore out from ARGHFUCKDAY and dragging ass this morning but I eventually may it into the kitchen and dispatched all the meat we bought the other day... Portioned it out, froze some of it, cut up meat for souvloki... depigeoned some meat (the process of cutting off all the yucky stuff you aren't going to eat anyway, bones, fat, tendons, grissel, cartilage...), Took hours, we need to buy better cuts of meat LOL. Kinda left me not hungry for lunch. Which in turn left more space for yummy dinner. And with dinner I tossed some stuff in the blender... Water from a coconut I also dispatched, ice, almond milk, vanilla, sweetener and some cream... Damn if you didn't tell me it was keto friendly I wouldn't have known it wasn't a real milk shake... Once again the diet is killing me. LOL After dinner the boy and I went to hockey practice... His coach showed up with a cast on his foot... Yup 2020 Strikes again. I did hear that hockey down south (Toronto, Niagara...) Has been canceled due to the next wave of COVID19, hopefully to be back in January... Glad they aren't taking it away here yet, honestly we don't have the same problems here, it wouldn't be fair to the kids here to pull the plug because of issues in other areas. We are still not out of the water. On the way home we hit Timmies, no bank card but a pocket full of old gift cards... Here try this one... Ok now this one... 32 cents... Hmm, wait here is another. I got rid of 4 empty cards and have $4.68 left on the last one. Wallet is more clean now. Heather was still up when I got home... A friend of mine from down south had called a was talking with her for about an hour... She passed the phone off to me... Good to catch up with people from time to time, always enjoy hearing from old friends... We talked for another 2 and a half hours, LOL. By the time I was done he had me pondering moving to Costa Rica, seems like a good place to retire. You know you are getting old when the places you are looking to retire to are short term plans, ie actually looking at real estate listings and pondering the current laws about moving to another country. When I got off the phone no one was left awake... Have to remember... Tomorrow is photo day at school.
