get some work done?
We woke up about 10:30 am, which is very unusual, even for a Saturday. I informed ADDhubby that I was going to cook breakfast - he was shocked to say the least because I truly don't cook anymore, but I'm so tired of wasting money on fast food, even slow food (not a drive-thru) can't compete with an old fashioned "home cooked" meal. My menu was bacon (turkey - Addhubby hates), rice, eggs and biscuits - sounds simple enough.
I think the reason I don't like to cook anymore is that the pay-off is not big enough. To put it simply, it takes longer to cook than to eat, then you have to clean the mess. I have the gevalia single travel mug coffee maker, which is never enough coffee for my taste, so I decided to make 2 individual travel mugs - ADD moment - I forgot to switch the setting to 2 cups, but put enough water in for 2 cups. As I was putting the bacon in the microwave, I smell coffee brewing...ahh, then turned around to a huge brown puddle of coffee on the floor and cabinets - fuck! I've already started the bacon, and rice (boil in a bag), and cracked my eggs - so even though I should've taken this as a sign to STOP and go to Hardees, I continued on...
I had to get the mop out, then I realized I wanted the coffee...so I proceeded to doctor up the cup that I had with the usual caramel syrup, caramel coffee mate, whipped cream...and the shit was too watery and weak. I drank it because to make another batch was work and I was already doing way too much.
I then think that I have dirtied up a dish towel, so I take it to the laundry room and notice the dirty clothes are out of control, so I start a load of laundry. I see that my desk has ADDson1 W2 on the printer so I sit down to do his 2006 taxes - (yes we are rolling upon 2008). I hear the microwave buzz - I go to take bacon out, notice that minute rice has been boiling for about 10 minutes...glad its not for me..hehehe...I resume cooking.
Now to the outsider, the kitchen looks mad busy, laundry is still in the same spot and taxes still need to be filed...(and this is really typical for me). I need a cigarette, so I go outside, then I come in and ask ADDhubby had he checked the mail...he's still in bed (my sanctuary), so I crawl in with him. He asks about breakfast...oh shit! I run back to the kitchen vowing to finish 1 thing and I do.
Breakfast was great, coffee was shitty, laundry still needs to be done, I have homework, ADDhubby has gone back to sleep and here I am on the computer, NOT doing the taxes...
Ive got to get some medication - this assimilated multi-tasking is getting on my nerves.
