I got up 3 times during the night; my first trip
to the bathroom at midnight I saw Laura’s bedroom light on so I’m sure she’ll
be sleeping in late. I woke/got up at
8:30am.
First good news, I still have Wi-Fi. I haven’t had any trouble with it since they
told me there was a serious problem so maybe they fixed it long ago.
Second good news, Teresa talked to the
carpenter, Ramiro, and he has the materials and will be here early tomorrow to
make the closet and I understand it should take only one day.
Teresa asked me to make a waffle for her for
breakfast. When we were at the grocery
store I bought my usual waffle mix and also an Aunt Jemima package that Teresa
wanted that requires eggs. I looked at
the package and the instructions are basically the same as what I’m used too, 1
cup of pancake mix, 1 cup of milk but also 3 eggs and it claims it makes 8
waffles. I don’t think so. I put the ingredients together and it looks
like it will make 1 waffle although with my waffle maker that’s 4 sections. Teresa thought 3 eggs was a lot so we “doubled”
the recipe by adding another cup of pancake mix and milk but no more eggs. The mixture looked pretty runny, not as thick
as I was used to. I made a waffle that
we shared and it does taste better than the waffles I used to make without
eggs. I made another one and we finished
that. Now I’ll wait for Laura to get up
and if she wants I’ll make one for her.
After my shower I found a Robin Williams – Remembered special on TV and Teresa and I watched
the last 30 minutes of it. I understood she
wants to see Awakenings so I added it
to my secondary movie list.
Laura got up just before noon and I made a
waffle for her. I combined ½ cup of my
waffle mix with ½ cup of Teresa’s waffle mix, 1 cup of milk and 1 egg and that
made just a little less than a full waffle that Laura enjoyed.
Today’s Bears game doesn’t start until about
6:30 our time.
We continued watching When Harry Met Sally and during the faked orgasm scene, because I
had the sound turned up so loud, Laura came out of her room to see what was
happening.
At 3pm I had a nice lunch of soup, beef (steak?)
with rice, salad and juice. I mentioned
to Teresa that there seems to be a few flies here today and she said it is a
common problem here in November and December.
Teresa wanted to watch Awakenings but it isn’t offered by Netflix even in English only.
I checked the Direct TV listings and it looks
like the Bears at Packers game isn’t on until 8:30 our time. The original start time was 7:30 but I must
have miscalculated the time change.
Instead of an hour earlier it must be an hour later.
At 8:15 a heavy thunderstorm came through so I
turned off the TV and hoped the storm passes in time to see the game. I put it back on 15 minutes later as the
storm seemed to have lessened.
At 10pm, just before halftime, a strong
rainstorm came through, we lost the satellite signal, I turned off the TV and
unplugged it, hoping the storm would pass in time for the 2nd half
although the Bears were already losing 35-0.
I turned it back on at 10:30 when the storm
lessened and stopped completely at 10:45.
I actually got to see the Bears score a touchdown. Ten minutes later there was more thunder with
a little rain but no interruption in the broadcast.
The final was Packers 55, Bears 14.
We went to bed at midnight.
