When I came back to the Old Bat Cave after an early dinner yesterday I see what must be a fire over in Maryland.
Still cold today. And, it will be colder tomorrow. But, the possibility of snow seems to have vanished from the forecast.
Today I went to Trader Joe and brought a backpack full of real food home. I consider this a huge step forward. The asylum is home. Not a hotel. Making food makes me happy. Today, I made my own cheese sandwich. And I didn’t go back to my old neighborhood Traders. I walked the mile to my new neighborhood Traders. This was a step towards accepting the asylum not as “a home” but rather as “my home”.
I got butternut squash, onions, peppers and tomatoes. This makes one of Carlton’s favorite meals. I am pretty fond of it too. I will have to pick up some bay leaves, basil and oregano. And maybe some parmesan to grate on top. There will be leftovers. Future healthy meals. Will be cooking tomorrow.
And on the other hand…
Just before I went to dinner last night – there was a great rainbow out the window of the OBC.
Last night’s talent show was as expected. But, years of listening to the Hulihe’e Palace Band conditioned my ears. I clapped and cheered. And, said I was already looking forward to next year’s show.
Happy Hour and dinner in the “Formal Dining Room” with an assortment of new friends.
You have the best attitude!!
