Granny's gone and done it again

[h2oratt]

Playing catch up if I can catch up before sleep. I slept horribly last night (wicked rain) and gotta be up crack of dawn tomorrow. It’s 6:30 am start times for me til payroll is done. The boys not turning their paperwork in really hooped me.

I think so. It was a bone in ribeye roast - so found some how to cook this on the internet, and busted out my cast iron Dutch oven (cause that’s all the cast iron I have - luckily the roast fit!!) preheat the oven and Dutch oven to 500. Slather that roast with sea salt, cracked pepper and more minced garlic than the recipe called for cause dammit garlic is good...put it bones down in the pan and cook it like that for about 20 minutes, turn down the heat to 325 and let it go about an hour and a half longer...perfection.

It reminded me though. I need a new meat thermometer worth a dang. The one I have is about as useful as udders on a bull.

Had a good dinner at the mil’s place though it got off to a rough start. They adopted a new Aussie (dog) and he’s very aggressive to other dogs (pecking order is worked out in their home pack at least but it took a while) so the second he saw peach he was going after her leg. (She wasn’t hurt, thankfully) separated them rather quickly and he got booted outside. Peach...was acting a bit funny after but I thought it was just her nerves from the little guy going after her and not having visited the mil in a while. No, she had to go...dropped a deuce right on the living room floor. Oops. So I cleaned it up and kept an eagle eye on her...she ended up hanging out in the backyard (so separate from jerk dog) and remembered they had a pool. So she went for a swim and was therefore locked out the rest of the evening. Oops. Oh well. She has fun and has some good plays with the other Aussie (named peaches) and their husky.

Standing rib roast. Lucky you have a Dutch oven!

Hi h20. When are you going to be in Napa?

I am picking up my sister at the airport tomorrow and driving her over. I will probably drive back in the evening. I have a lot of stuff to do here that didn’t get done. We are having a new roof put on my house and I haven’t gotten to talk with the roofer to work out the details. I will prob drive back over on Friday.

Your sister will be there by herself?
Will there be a good day to have lunch?

 

[Kelsykin]

Great job. You got all 6 tablets?

Yes, but we did not give them the tablets yet. We had put them aside and forgot about them until late last night. We are waiting a few days to give them the tablets now.

So I managed to get through yesterday. I got Bob the 5 movies Die Hard Blu-ray, a Chinese food cookbook and a beard car kit. I received a set of headphones for playing on the Xbox, a Kindle Paperwhite and penguin items. The kids received board games, some brain puzzles, a chess set, and legos.

Oh no my dad and stepmom have rented a timeshare. They have been there since Sat. My brothers are flying in to Santa Rosa on Thursday. We just have the place until this sat. My daughter and her family are driving over on Friday. Let me see how today goes.

I am so glad I woke up at the buttcrack of dawn to be here at 6:30 to work on payroll especially since I came in to an empty inbox. One of our guys came in about ten minutes later all apologetic since he forgot one of his guys’ cards - dude no you and your crew are golden. He turned in his crew’s papers on Friday. (With the exception of the straggler)

Another foreman just showed up and got me his crew...after I’ve been here about 45 minutes (and the temp has only risen about three degrees)

This Canuck is about to lose her *censored*
