Everything Fred – Part 442

5 October 2024

I was awake by 6:30 this morning and contemplated going for a morning walk until I heard a roll of thunder. Then I heard the rain hitting the heliconia leaves by my bed room. It rained for quite a while this morning so I got busy with stripping the bed, changing linen and washing, drying and folding clothes.

I didn’t feel great but I didn’t have to clean the house since I had been working at it all week. Around 12:30 John showed up with a Wendy’s hamburger and a container of chili. He also brought me a mini bundt cake from Nothing Bundt Cakes. These things are delicious!

As you can see, I opted for lemon. John got carrot cake. He gets these BOGO coupons for the Bundts.

The frosting is very special. The cake is perfectly moist.

I suspect they are sized for two people but I ate the entire thing in one sitting.

Back to the chili. Wendey’s has very good chili – probably due to the left over hamburger meat. They changed the brand of hot sauce, or at least the packaging, and first thing I managed to squirt hot sauce all over my tee shirt.

Later, I find I dripped it on the floor on my way to the sink. I also got it all over the table. John finally made me take my tee off and soak it in Shout. Then he sprayed my back belt that supports my back. I managed to get some hot sauce on that.

We later kept finding spots on the floor. I only used two packages of hot sauce and most of it did not end up in the chili.

John treated me to the meal and bundt cake.

Today has been kind of an ugh day, not only due to the rain. John’s visit made me feel better even though I did have a couple of dizzy spells while he was here. After a while, he walked over and handed me my walking cane and I could tell not to brook any nonsense with him.

Next, I want to try the carrot cake.

Stay tuned!
