I had a leftover waffle, but nobody else wanted to eat with me. Eaddie left and was gone for most of the day, but Summer we planned to cook a nice dinner in the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Summer eventually went to the gym, then we cleaned up the kitchen a bit in the afternoon. We eventually got out of the house to go to the Neighborhood Market for groceries, and just as we got inside, it started pouring rain. Muad&#8217;Dib didn&#8217;t seem terribly bothered in the car, so we continued shopping, and it had stopped raining by the time we were done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had voiced frustration trying to continually plan around Eaddie when she has become less and less reliable over time. She loses my stuff as well as her own stuff, and I&#8217;ve gotten to the point where I&#8217;m just ready for her to move along with her own life, but she doesn&#8217;t have any source of income yet. I think we&#8217;ve agreed that we just need to do what we&#8217;re going to do in spite of her, because we&#8217;re always going to cook more than just the two of us can eat anyway, and then Eaddie can join us or not without any expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Summer made mashed sweet potato and broccoli, and I grilled pork chops, zucchini, and squash, and it all turned out really good. We&#8217;ll have plenty for the coming week, with opportunities to amend our meals with other sides. Dinner was great, and I finished up some laundry before we started winding down for an early bedtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Pork paper!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I surprisingly woke up pretty early today and didn&#8217;t feel groggy, but I just wasn&#8217;t ready to get up before the sun, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[45,96,29,36,66,73,57,42],"class_list":["post-9463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-anger-management","tag-dog","tag-family","tag-food","tag-frustration","tag-grill","tag-parenting","tag-pets"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9463"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9463\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9465,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9463\/revisions\/9465"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
