Text to speech blog

 I'm going to try this with the voice to text tonight. I still do not have a working computer so I'm just using my phone for all my online stuff but I can pay my bills and do the work things and all that so I'm happy.  I was doing meal prep today I had bought various things I tried to have components so I can put meals together like a canned beans I like using those a lot I always have lentils on hand my favorite Frozen mixed vegetable canned salsa red potatoes rice chicken broth different things like that and then I can put that together and and make me a lot of that I have been doing a lot of meals where I have red potatoes cut up with a plantain all black beans and some kind of meat and that and a can of salsa and that turns out pretty good actually so and then it's just ready to go when I walk in the door which I love but I was thinking tonight I was having a lot of fun in the kitchen and I made chorizo and eggs I put some kale in there too and when I was dishing it up I added some shredded cheese some spicy refried beans also you know I'm having a good time just up creating basically and I just got kind of sad and I was thinking about it and I could never do any of that when Ron was alive he is only like recently that I realized just how controlling he was the length of my hair the how much I fixed myself up the type of clothes I wore the he wanted me frumpy he did not want anybody looking at me he was very very threatened every time I lost weight and he would do anything he could to sabotage that and a lot of times what I was eating you know he would say he you know he was just extremely extremely controlling and not just like what we're going to keep the thermostat but he paid all the bills all the money came from him I had very little money in my own it was it was terrible and I never am going to put myself in that situation again ever ever you know if a man loves me he's going to understand that and you know and I have basically decided I'm happy being celibate you know I have a good life I would the other night I came home I was sitting on the couch I was petting Spotty and I thought to myself I'm very happy here where I am right now so I'm going to get up I'm not going to mess that up and so I was cooking and I'm kind of creating a curry and what I like to do with like cooking ethnic foods is like kind of get a baseline recipe and then I play with it because I'm the only one eating it generally so I know how to do a basic Curry so I got some oil in the skillet I added the spices the onions I let that go for a few minutes I added the potatoes and carrots and that I actually kind of stole from the Chinese cooking you know because you want to cook the more dense vegetables for longer period of time than something like say spinach if you're cooking in a wok and I am you know I put a curry together and I'm very happy with it and it's a giant Curry I have a literally a gallon of curry in the refrigerator and you know I can share that with my friends if they're interested you know I have a lot of fun I'm spicing it up but the house smells like Curry and I thought Ron would have blown a gasket over this and you know I was just in bondage for so long it was just sad and you know I have three days off this week one day I went and did a Bible hand out that's pretty much an all-day thing the second day I did my hair that's also pretty much an all-day thing today I made a quick trip to the grocery store mainly for snacks I want like some cookies and pretzels I really want to pretzels and and things like that and I came home and I took a nap with Cleo and I did the meal prep and I'm very happy with that and you know tomorrow I go into work it's going to be busy because it is a Walmart on a tax-free weekend and I don't care where you work in the store is going to be busy so that is it for now
