On the other end of the phone was some salesman from a car dealership in Sherwood park that just won't leave us alone. He wanted to sell us a vehicle even though we have told him so many times that we aren't interested right now and it was annoying being woken up for something so stupid. About 10 minutes later, my mom called to tell us morfar is in the hospital. Not good news so send up your prayers. Apparently he should be able to go home in a few days.
At that point we were both wide awake and there was no hope in getting back to sleep. We did spend a bit more time in bed because the power was off so there was no point in getting out.
Once we did get out, I finished off the milk in my cereal so Tyler didn't have anything to eat until we went to the store. Tyler spent part of the morning studying while I worked on my cross stitch project. I'm getting ready to be done this project. It's taken me so long to do it and I just want to work on something else.
We went to the store even though the power was off and ended up getting most of what we needed. It's always a surprise when that happens. We will have to go back tomorrow for a few other things. I'm pretty excited about the menu this week.
We got home and unpacked the food making sure that the fridge wasn't open for too long.
As we were settling back down for the afternoon, the power came back on. It was nice to not have to stitch in the dark.
Our afternoon was then spent reading and stitching and chasing kitten around. It was a nice way to spend the day. Tyler also took a nap.
Tyler then started dinner. He found a recipe online for fried chicken. He was putting together all the ingredients and then it all sit in the fridge. About half an hour later we started the adventure. Tyler started to heat up the oil on the stove. I was cutting up some veggies and as I turned around, the pot started on fire. And then we didn't really know what to do. Tyler turned off the heat and then the fire alarm went off. It was loud and we weren't sure what to do. Tyler covered the pot and then took it outside. Once out there, apparently it re caught fire and was licking at the gloves he was wearing. So he did what any man would do - he threw the whole thing over the edge of the deck. He said it looked pretty cool because it was basically a fireball flying through the air.
So that didn't work. Now we had to figure out what to do with all the chicken. We did kind of the same thing as before only with a frying pan. And it turned out really great. We ate dinner together and too was really great. Tyler was in heaven as he ate it. It was funny. We also decided that since tonights meal was so good, it would be our thanksgiving meal. So we enjoyed thanksgiving together.
And now we sit and digest. It was a nice day even though it was raining and gloomy outside.
Baby j has been moving around a ton today and I love that.
