VERONICA ARRIVES… and Nachos

 Vaccinated supper tonite… Live from NYC…

Sunless Monday… clouds rolling on in… sun unable to peek through… definite chill on the stiff breeze… temps barely crawling up to 59°F… feeling a bit muffled outside… birds quiet after the dawn cacophony… squirrels 🐿 staying inside their nests… folks snuggled into their upturned collars against the wind… stark contrast to yesterdays bright sunshine ☀️ 


Breakfast for three… Mr Sam scarfing up his kibble with a side of whey… the hubs cottage cheese and hot java ☕️ followed by a mini turkey wrap, sliced avocado, smoked Gouda chunks & hot tea 🫖  he was hungry today!!  Same old boring yours truly🧋and a few grapes 🍇 (thanks Mariya… they were delicious) 


Spending several hours on the phone 📞 today straightening out Mom’s bills…  being grossly overcharged by her oxygen concentrator provider…  calling the company and repeatedly being disconnected… on purpose… grrrrr.  Having to remind (for the 3rd time) several companies that we no longer own the Tucson house… please stop billing us for alarm, pest control and fire services NOT rendered… whew… for those of you helping out an elderly relative or friend… it has become apparent that overcharging those who may not be sufficiently aware of their finances… is now a common occurrence… it is the new graft 😠 please be mindful 😡 Keeping calm during these difficult calls… a trial in patience… time to scoot into the kitchen and play 😁


Supper tonite… NACHOS… what could be better after a day of aggravation without sun…  first layer… blue corn tortilla chips… follow by sautéed ground turkey (seasoned with onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, Cajun spice mix, smoked paprika, chili powder, ground coriander and cumin)  rinsed and drained black beans… roasted tomatoes (homemade in the fridge) 

Repeated for the second layer… and the third… topped with crumbled queso fresco and heated in the microwave on medium in three minute bursts until hot… topped with dollops of sour cream & diced avocado 🥑 Mmmm 😋 


Cold symptoms almost finished… an occasional blowing of the nose to clear out the remains of the now dead virus… YESSSS 🥰  Feeling energetic and healthy once again… hubs also done with the bug… we have vanquished the invader 🦠

BA - 2 variant spreading quickly across the US…  not vaxxed yet? #GetYourJabOn  the vaccine is why hospitalizations and deaths are not climbing along with infections…  know anyone with polio? Smallpox? Vaccines save lives and eradicate disease… get yours today 😷💕

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?    Thoughts?
