Mutti Chronicles

Tornado warning in progress…but the siren isn’t going off yet. So we’re ok…so far!
It’s probably a good idea to get flashlights, etc. together ahead of time. Gotta go…

Update…

Not much happened. A little wind, lots of lightning. We spent 30 minutes in the basement with 2 bewildered dogs and a cat and all of our important belongings. We always take things like car keys with us. But if the tornado levels our car, why would we need the keys?

And the good news is, according to weather reports, we get to go through it all again tomorrow!

I think I’ve managed to improve on the grilled cheese from yesterday. Just take off the tomato.

That is all.

Eventually I have to lower the amount of fat in my diet. So I decided to try this fat-free thing for lunch yesterday. I believe they should call it flavor-free instead of fat-free. I made a grilled cheese sandwich with low fat bread and fat free cheese, a slice of tomato and onion, and fat free margerine.

Low fat bread tastes like cardboard and fat-free cheese does not melt that well. All together it wasn’t terrible, but a ladle full of gravy and some salt would greatly improve it.

That is all!

I almost forgot the bowl of whole grain, fat free cereal I had for breakfast. Not bad, but not very filling either.

Yes….today was Mutti’s first day back at driving. It was good. I drove all over the place just for the heck of it.
I didn’t run into any obnoxious drivers until I got to rehab this afternoon and three people tried to crash into me in the hospital parking lot. But don’t tell Father, cuz I was driving his car.

I think car designers should put some sort of padding on the belt that goes across your chest area. The one in my car hits my scar at just the wrong spot and occasionally it hurts a lot. I guess that wouldn’t really work cuz then the seat belt won’t recoil. Bummer.

That is all!
