Been Busy

I realized I hadn't posted much in a while the other day.  Nothing much to talk about anyway.  We have been running errands here and there that even took us over to the next town (New Braunfels).  There is a meat market there we like to go to.  They had beef fajitas on sale.  By on sale, they were less than anyone else at 8.99/lb.  I just shake my head at that.  It is some of the worst meat to buy and I usually refuse to pay the price.  Either that or I have to swallow more chicken.  We checked at Costco too.  10.99/lb. is outrageous for that type meat.  Rib eyes are 10.99/lb.  I didn't think about it at the time but I can get decent sirloin for much less and is a better cut of meat and I can make fajitas from that.  We won't purchase it at those prices ever again.  If you aren't familiar with fajitas, it's flank steak.  Very course meat, not tender without much work, i.e. marinating forever, pounding it with the tenderizer or knife and trimming the tough skin off.  It was a very cheap meat until it was appropriated from the Mexican Restaurants and became very very popular.  Now we all have to pay the exorbitant rates.  But I digress.

I don't know much about Kanye West or Ye.  But why do they keep giving this guy a platform?  He is obviously in need of some help.  Or he just says stupid things to get publicity and sell more records (CD's?).  Everyone is shocked by what comes out of his mouth and everyone gets upset.  Well stop paying attention to the guy and he might go away.  I know a politician (more than one)that says some really dangerously stupid things and it usually gets glossed over.  The media never gets upset for some reason.  Then the story just quietly dies.  Take a hint, stop covering the guy.  Yes, I know he is befriended by their target and try to link them etc.

Today is the first day 'K' seems to be finally much better.  She had been in touch with her FNP and they sent her for a chest XRay finally.  It was clear surprisingly.  She had been coughing quite a bit again.  Now it seems to have finally stopped.  This has been probably 4 weeks.  It appears it is something a lot of our friends have or had too.  They don't call it anything other than a respiratory infection.  But finally she is getting some relief, along with me and the dogs.

Happy Trails
