Been up for a while and had less than 5 hours of sleep on top of that. I got up early to start 12 hour rib for dinner tonight. I should have gone back to bed, but I started in on today's major task - cleaning this house. Things are just messy right now and it's affecting my mood. While waiting for the water to come up to temp I started cleaning the kitchen and found just some gross stuff on handles, the counter, etc. It's not that we're living in filth, it's just little things like a sticky counter. I don't blame anyone for it either. It just builds up because we don't see it until it's too late. With me teaching all week and C focused on classes, it gets hard. But today is the day we clean.
Yesterday I was annoyed most of the day because of B. $1300 was the final total of what I sent out for her. Seriously. You know they sometimes throw out how they could push for alimony and yet the funny thing is, I could probably get a court on my side and she would get LESS than what I am currently handling. Just saying. Taught all day. 8am until 4pm. It was a long day. For dinner we had poke poke. VERY good. Another one of those how have I lived here for 4 years and never eaten here things. Oh wait, because it's all raw fish and well, we know how someone felt about fish, don't we? We watched the finale of top chef season 4, started messing around on the couch, moved to the bedroom, and fell asleep intertwined at 9:30. I woke back up at 11, got up, prepped my ribs for this morning, putzed around, and went back to bed around 12:30. Tossed and turned a bit. Got out of bed at 5. For the record, we're running a 50% ratio for the month and we're 1/3 of the way to "the average person" in terms of number of times they have sex per year. Just saying. Make me smile just typing that.
The new wine fridge arrived yesterday. Had a fucking dent in it. Managed to get Home Depot to give me 10% back on the purchase price. It's not much, but it's something. The dent is on the back so no one sees it, but I know it's there. While at home depot we got a new garbage can. We both hated the plastic one we had and we replaced it with a nice metal one with an auto lid. So far we like it a lot better. Moved all the wines into the new fridge. 22 reds, 11 whites. I am running low. The top with the whites is set to 45 degrees, the bottom red section, 55. I like having a dual zone with precise temps instead of a dial. I have room for about 10 more bottles. May have to tap into one of our clients and see about getting a case sent over.
Other than cleaning, no real plans for today. Thank goodness.
