On Sunday I was a hermit

I didn’t leave the house at all yesterday (nor did I take any pictures), so I don’t have all that much to report.

I got up and got ready for church in the morning, then decided to just keep my cold at home. Rockford took the kids to church, and I did a little laundry, watched several “Good Eats” re-runs and napped until they came home.

After church Poppy spent a good part of the afternoon out with Rockford’s mom, and Pete took a super long nap — I’m hoping that isn’t a sign that he’s going to be coming down with my cold — while Rockford worked on a presentation he has to do tomorrow. Meanwhile, I napped some more, watched “Thor” and started dinner.

The kids had been invited to some friends’ house to decorate Halloween cookies, so Rockford took them over there after dinner. If I were to wager a guess, I’d say he watched football while the kids decorated cookies. Surprisingly, I did not take a nap while they were gone.

Rockford has a lot of dinners out this week, and our menu plan for the week reflects that. In that it’s mostly kid-friendly standby meals.

Monday: Spaghetti

With Texas toast! I like Texas toast.

Tuesday: Fish sticks and mac & cheese

This is not one of my favorite meals. I’ll probably have an Amy’s vegetable pot pie from the freezer.

Wednesday: Chili

We trick or treat and have dinner with friends every year on Halloween. I’m 99 percent sure we’re having chili this year.

Thursday: Omelets

Poppy loves eggs, and she loves cheese. So why won’t see even try an omelet? I don’t know, but chances are I’ll be making fried eggs on Thursday, too.

Friday: Pizza

I’m already looking forward to Friday.
