Week of January 16th - Jaguars Saturday 2nd Playoff Game

Monday: Went to Quest for my annual physical bloodwork. We tried Carolyn's homemade mint hot chocolate (Christmas gift) - very good! She also gave us mocha-hot chocolate to try.

Holiday from school (MLK Day) so AA was home, did homework while we did errands and household chores. We had a rotisserie chicken with baked potatoes and broccoli for dinner. At 8:00 p.m. Coach Bryan held a Zoom session with Josh, a mental athlete coach. Good session but everything said, AA has heard at least once. Will read more books on the golfing mental side of the game.

Tuesday: Went to RH to enjoy the beautiful weather, actually sat outside. Hugh and Maureen were tired after Erin's visit, Kathy had a fall last Friday and her back was still sore, so only the two of us. We went to Sweet Sensations for Outlaw Chicken Salad for our RH happy hour, but didn't take it. We baked Carolyn's lasagna (she gave us at Christmastime), delicious with a salad kit.

River House Happy Hour:

Wednesday: I continue to work for my new department (APTIM Director of Environmental Services), Curt Lee. Taking more time to learn what he needs from me. We enjoyed leftover lasagna with garlic bread and broccoli. Took AA to her physical therapy, she knows how to correctly wear her knee brace, must wear it whenever she bends her knee (almost all the time). As her leg is strengthened, should be able to only wear when playing sports. 

Thursday: Continued working with new group, Curt Lee. Ford went to his exercise class and Tai-Chi class. We tried making "chicken" cakes (like crab cakes) with our chicken salad (I added diced red onion and bell peppers) for dinner, not too bad. 
Friday: Went to my annual physical appointment, bloodwork was all "normal". No issues except the recurring rash (possibly adult acne), so going for more bloodwork for Lupus. I worked several hours, learning my new assignment, mostly a manual process, so taking a while to learn. AA did homework after school, I chatted with my Mom, while Ford made pizza for dinner (used Publix pizza dough). Texted with Leaa, decided the tall ship sailing for Terri/Carolyn and my birthday will be a day sail on April 15th.

Saturday: AA met up with Siyan at Chipotle's for lunch. Took our hotdog cooker to the River House, watched the Jaguars playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Jaguars lost, but it was a fun season where they improved as a team, so will look forward to next year.

Sunday: Baked a blueberry buckle, took to Carolyn's with AA. 

We bought Burger King burgers along the way - never to do again, not only was the drive-thru SLOW, they only gave us two of three burgers, thankfully I had AA check before we left, so had to literally bang on the windows as the inside dining was closed! Never again! We visited with Carolyn, talked about her beau Alex, he was coming over later to grill dinner of lamb kabobs for her. We drove home, I made egg roll bowl for the beginning of Chinese New Year.
