My stomach was gnawing away at itself so I grabbed things out of the fridge I didn't have to cook: beef smoked sausage, pepper jack cheese, and garlic stuffed olives. I nuked the sausage while I got ready to eat. A 2 minute meal.
Breakfast was Moroccan spice oatmeal. It had both steel cut and rolled oats, golden raisins, apples, slivered almonds, cinnamon and ginger. Plus the usual sugar, brown sugar, and salt. It was good. It's been so long since I had oatmeal that wasn't instant that I forgot what it was like. The steel cut oats weren't mushy at all.
I was supposed to take my mom out for dinner today and after calling repeatedly for almost 8 hours she finally answered the phone. Right after I ate that sausage, etc., but not right before that. We were supposed to go out 10 days ago and several other days since, but she can't hear the phone ring when her hearing aids are in one or two other rooms and she's in another.
