Two days and two of us!

What a day. I’m on stronger meds now, which means I have today and tomorrow off, so it’s just going to be about looking after myself and the boy. I’m finding that my knees are suddenly becoming a problem at my age, and I’m not sure if it’s all the sitting I’ve been doing lately. Office work is definitely different from my usual warehouse duties. On the bright side, I think my foot injury has recovered faster than normal, even though it still occasionally hurts. And thankfully, the other employees at work have lightened up a bit and gotten off my back, which has definitely eased some stress.

In other news, I’m really looking forward to playing the new Doom game, but the installation is taking forever! I would have thought copying from a Blu-ray would take minutes, not hours, but it looks like the game is also trying to download updates. Ugh, slow internet! My 4G/5G would be faster than this fiber connection.

For dinner tonight, I’m not sure what to make. It’s been a while since I’ve had pizza, so I might make it homemade. I’ll have to see what toppings the boy wants; he loves fish and meat, so I’m guessing it’ll be a lot of that!

Anyone have any thoughts of what I could do tomorrow? (Yes, a lot of Doom when its finished installing!)

Try Turmeric Curcumin capsules for your knees. It helps with inflammation. You can find them in the vitamin asle at walmart. I’m taking them and it helps with my back pain.

I’m glad to hear your foot is doing better and that work has lighten up.

Home made pizza sounds good. Meat lovers is my favorite. How about Spaghetti, coslaw and garlic bread for tomorrow?. Or Tacos. Chicken Alfrado would be another idea.

Doom sounds fun just in the name. I hope you have a good two days off! 😃

We got creative tonight, with chicken pieces, sweetcorn, mixed peppers and cheese on our pizza tonight (left over fridge/cupboard ingredients!) I’m off to work tomorrow as earliest as can be and my mama will be tomorrow to pick him up and take him to school.

Doom is so violent, I’ve had to play it whilst he is in bed and told everyone that he cannot touch it!

For my knees, I’ve taken note of your suggestion and will go seek them soon!

When I mentioned “Tonight” I meant yesterday! We are still having leftovers today! 😂

@ty-jackson leftovers are always a good thing. Just finished chicken baccon ranch tacos tonight. 😄

@ty-jackson That is creative. It sounds good too. Cupboard and  fridge ingredients make the best treats usually.Glad to hear you have your mama to help you . Famiiy is the best to have around.

I didnt know Doom was so violent. I thought it was something to which the world would come to and end much like they said it would year 2000.

I got on to Roblox because my nieces, nephew and sister all said i just had to get an account and play pizza place, and bloxyburg,  with them. Well now they hardly get on.  Some times I’m there building houses.

@lilyionjade As much as Roblox has some child safety features I still don’t let him play it and probably won’t until he is 13.

@ty-jackson that’s completely understandable.

My son was talking about wanting to play the new Doom game. I was looking at it, not sure if I’ll get it or not.

The game is defo a 18+ game, it has dismemberment of body parts and I don’t recommend playing it without explaining it to the kids first! My son already knows about death, but I won’t show him dismemberment so the game is just for me!
