The breakfast is done for those of us who eat
breakfast. Morning repast today was a
mushroom cheddar omelet with a dash of B & B for flavor with Kenyan coffee
on the side. (Me I am still drinking
decaf.)
Mary Chapin Carpenter is on the stereo. While on holiday a couple of weeks back a
friend had asked me whatever had happened to Ms. Carpenter. I told her that I had seen a recent CD but
that I hadn’t heard it. Last night while
at Best Buy I saw the disc for $9.99 I thought how could I go wrong? Thus I
bought it.
The tunes are different.
The music is beautiful but the themes are dark. I am also listening to
Jann Arden and to Rosanne Cash. Ladies
day on the CD juke box or so it seems.
As the music plays the delicates are in the washing
machine. Yesterday’s dishes are in the
dishwasher going swoosh, swoosh, and swoosh. I have pulled out the kids expired
passports and now I prepare to experience the post office. Arggh. Did I mention I am dying to hear the
last disk of On the Road? When last we
left Dean and Sal they were smoking the hugest bomber ever with a bunch of
Mexican men somewhere deep in Mexico.
(Later)
4 loads of laundry later and the day of house work is
done. I made chicken noodle soup for
dinner from scratch, beans, peas, potatoes, noodles, chicken, shallots, chicken
stock, carrots and fresh tomatoes. With
some cibatta bread on the side it seemed to go over quite well. I ran out of
milk today. Thus I had to go to Sam’s
Club. On the trip to and from we took a
circuitous route. On the Road is
over. Really I think I appreciate the
writing farm more than I did when I was 14.
