Evie Day 333
Good morning! I hope all of you are well. Today is 12 February 2024.
Two days until Valentine’s Day.
This weekend my beloved decided to try something new. She made these almond cookies in her little heart-shaped waffle maker. They’re a little thick for a stroopwafel, but crunchy and flavorful. I think there’s an opportunity to drizzle a little caramel of frosting over the top of the little delights. They are a bit indulgent.
But don’t call them indulgences… I don’t want friends thinking I’m gnawing on the toe bone of St. Ignatius.
Friday afternoon I went to my primary care physician to talk about the state of me. We’re trying a new medication for my anxiety issues, and we’re hoping that the medication will address one issue, and then do the opposite of a domino effect and fix a couple of interrelated issues, mainly my slight bump in blood pressure. My family history is full of folks who have had hypertension issues.
The other thing I did at the appointment was get a couple of shots in each arm. I’m glad I got my COVID booster, and I’m glad I got my shingles vaccine, but it sure made sleeping hard the last few nights. I tend to sleep on my side, and it was hard to do with the pain in my shoulders.
Kansas held court at home on Saturday without their lead scorer in the lineup. Tonight they’ll have their hands full with a trip to Texas Tech.
I told Lisa I would take care of dinner tonight… cheeseburgers, I think. Something in honor of Andy Reid following the Chiefs win in the Superbowl last night.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
