Let me say this about that. I had a hard time functioning this morning trying to make the coffee with this new machine. My brain could not get in gear. I had to have Hugh help me. Is this what happens when you use either a Keurig or a one cup only coffee maker? Maybe it was just still sleeping? Or I was just still sleeping? Three cups of coffee down and brain began functioning after that time. Lexi was at my feet wanting more scratches and pats. The morning and afternoon was filled with drinking coffee and watching various televisions shows (Hugh likes to channel surf) as well as reading A Storied Life of A.J. Fikry. The highlights for today include eating in new locations for me:
(1) Hugh and I headed out around 11:00 a.m. to meet Kelly at Lupi's pizza. We loaded into the big truck to head in whatever direction we are supposed to be going. I have no idea where we are so I am at the mercy of whomever is driving. We pulled into the parking lot of where we thought we were supposed to go and could not find it. I googled the place so we choose one of two locations. We were following the navigation onto the highway and kept going. Kelly called and wondered where we were. Well...... We were in the wrong location. There was a new location that was not on the google application. We turned around and had to go back in the direction that we had been before. Come to find out we were about one block from where we were supposed to be. Oh well. We had Kelly order a pizza (her choice - Pepperoni and mushroom) so that it would be almost ready by the time that we got there. Lupi's is her favorite pizza place. She did have to go back to work so it was her choice.
(2) Hugh, Kelly and I loaded into the VW Beetle to head to Sweeney's for ribs and chicken wings. Oh and do not forget the beer. There was no Chattanooga Brewing Company beer so I settled on the Fat Tire that I had the other day.
The food was good for me but nothing exceptional except the ribs fell off the bone. So good. It was not one of those moments: "Oh my. I have never had this before." However, I will say this about that. Ordinary, normal and consistency is a good thing. If you always had amazing, you would never really know amazing. Just like the rest of today. Downtime and normal is good. It gives you time to regenerate to keep moving.
Prepping for any Michigan game is important to Kelly. She provided me with Michigan State Alto sweatpants and sweatshirt as well as a Michigan State hat. It is still weird to me because Kelly was a huge University of Michigan fan all her life until one of her sons went to Michigan State. She is still a Michigan fan too. However, today is all about Michigan State because they are in March Madness.
The game is not until around 10:00 p.m. In the meantime, Kelly is running on the treadmill and we are watching Boy George and all the contestants on American Idol sing the 80s songs. I have not watched this show this year. I can see some potential but the songs did not fit all the contestants.
Bonfire time! A neighbor was having a bonfire with Kelly and I joined him. AC/DC music playing. All is good. It brings you back. So fun! It is that time of year down here in Tennessee.
Louisville was playing before the Michigan game so Hugh stayed and watched Louisville win! Yay for Louisville. Michigan State game starts around 10 p.m. We are raring to go. We are on commercial break so I am signing off.
I hoped everyone enjoyed their day!
