I made it home

 No Buddy tonight, as expected.  My other driver was gone, too, and they had it as a training route.  That's half my rides today.  

I hope they didn't fire him.  We'll call him Elton because he's gay - really - has a husband and everything.  I love him to bits that would suck if he's gone.  

I decided to make chili lentils tonight and found out red lentils are good for that, so when I got home I dragged out my jar of lentils - I have a couple different bags, including some red ones.  I got those going.  I did slightly burn them (halfway done at this point) and I feel bad about that - the house doesn't smell great either.  

Basically what I did is lentils, cumin, chili powder, salt.  The lentils are almost done so I added some rice because I like lentils and rice (not to mention it makes a better protein).  I had lentils and rice for lunch actually and it was very filling.  I wasn't hungry at 7:30 PM when I ate some porridge so I could take my pills.  

Once the rice is done I'm going to cook it down a bit and then add some tomato sauce, taste it, cook it down some more, maybe add some oregano.  I have stuff I can eat tomorrow but I'm trying to cook a few days ahead.  

I think it would also be excellent with some shredded cheese.  

I talked to my parents, and my aunt.  I try to talk to my aunt on the way home from work every week or so.  That seems to be a good time.  She's doing well.  

My parents are doing alright but Mom's coming down with something.  Hopefully just a cold and hopefully she does not pass it to Dad.  Every time Dad gets a cold it turns to pneumonia.  

Tomorrow's a long day but it shouldn't be too bad.  That's it for now!
