Bought a chair at the Christian Mission for five dollars. I would say it's worth all of five dollars, but it isn't. It's worth more like two. When I was trying to decide to buy it or not, an elderly lady watching me commented, "Just don't let any old people sit in that". I probably shouldn't let anyone sit in it. I felt like I could give it stability. I have no idea how to fix things. Guess I thought by the time I got it home I would have it figured it out. Maybe some wood glue. I did manange to take apart the seat cushion because it needs recovering. What I found: moth ball scent and a vinyl Winnie the Pooh something or other for cushioning. It's going to be a first class chair.

I made meatballs, twice baked potatoes and steamed vegetables for dinner. What I know how to cook, I can cook well, but I'm still not to that point where I can just whip something together with some random ingredients and without a recipe. I also cannot seem to come up with meals that go together. See above for reference. Several things are always sounding appetizing. Meatballs are really a side dish. I know that. But if I want meatballs, you can bet I am going to make it into a meal. I try to put other things with it to make it seem more meal-like, but meal-like and meal are not the same. That's as crazy as I get people. Stepping out of the box to make side dishes as main courses.

I go to the lady doctor tomorrow. Awkward. I hope it is someone who listens well. That's a total pet peeve of mine. Someone who stares down at their clipboard, asks several questions without looking up, cuts you off when you are answering, and gives you a prescription for something you don't need. No thank you. I will be sure to record the experience.
