gotta love sicily's electric company...... NOT!!
This past week has been.... fun. Tuesday we ran to base for errands and such. We arrived back home to find the power out in the whole neighborhood. So we... correction..
I spent all day entertaining Carlee, while it started getting stuffy in the house. blech. We couldn't cook anything so we ended up going to a nearby restraunt for dinner, and right after our plates came out, THEIR electricity went out! At least we got to eat... Our electricity finally came back on early the next morning. Wednesday was okay. Thursday, it shut back off around 9 am. I hadn't even had a chance to make breakfast yet. So we had bananas and milk... Carlee was hungry for lunch by 10 am. lol... I ended up going to a friend's house for the day since apparently my street was the only one with power issues. Came back home in the afternoon to a nice cold air conditioned house. Then today, the power went out AGAIN! thankfully only for an hour.... but this is really getting frustrating. Anyway...
Today I got to go to the market again with Angela. It was fun, and it wasn't even too hot out until we were ready to go. I tried to take a few pictures, but I felt somewhat hesitant. I wasn't sure how people were going to react, or if anyone would get mad, etc. So I finally snapped one of a vegetable vendor and his stand, and he looked up right as I was taking the picture, and just grinned this huge grin. I laughed because I figured he was probably thinking I wanted his picture because I thought he was hot or something... LMAO, so I didn't take anymore. Maybe next time I'll be more brave... :) I'll see how the few came out that I took and post them soon. Tonight, I'm too tired though.
I did a lot of cleaning after the market, until Tony got home. Started on dinner. Tried a new chicken divan recipe. It was pretty good, but I found out that Tony doesn't like broccoli. I swear he's such a picky eater. But amazingly Carlee loved it, so we'll have it again anyway. That was the first "real" dinner she's had in a long long time. Lately she's only been eating fruit, sandwiches, and mac&cheese... unfortunately. But the doctor said it was okay..... psh. whatever. I'm not even worried about it because it's obvious she's not malnourished! :D
I'm tired. this is all for today.
:P
