Tuesday Meme...

 Good morning from the swamp...and to answer a quick question, we were in a drought. I suppose we still are. It's just so hot and humid, sigh.

Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 kept in memory of her. Let's talk about food this week, shall we? Most people enjoy eating good food after all.

1.What is/are your favorite foods to eat?

I really like a good greasy hamburger. But all in all, I love pizza. A good pizza, not those frozen kinds, those aren't pizza, that is processed food.

2. How often do you cook at home and what kind of meals do you make?  

My husband does most of the cooking during the week because he is retired. Lately, it's been a little weird. The other night he made chicken tenders, white rice and green beans. It was just weird. NOT that I am complaining. I'm just saying. On the weekends we usually cookout, hamburgers, chicken ribs whatever is in the freezer.

3. When you go out to eat what foods do you find yourself ordering most?

A greasy hamburger, lol. Whenever we go to the Metro Diner, I always get their Breakfast hamburger, it has an egg on top with hashbrowns. Oh, so good and fattening. 

4. Can you recommend a restaurant in your area?

 The Metro Diner in the Villages. Why do you like it? The food is really good, and the atmosphere is really nice.

not my photo-got it off their website

The place is always hopping, full of old folks, and I think, if the place is full of old folks, then it has to be good and reasonably priced, right? What am I saying, I am old. LOL---all in all Ocala and the surrounding towns/cities are full of great places to eat. 

Thanks for joining in!

My husband asked me that very question when I got home yesterday, "What did you do today?"--it is (the question) almost comical really...actually...to be all serious, I work in a prison. Full of really bad people. Yesterday while serving a student a CC (Corrective Consultation for skipping class the day before), she decided to curse me out to Adam and became combative, and I promptly called officers/security/hit my button. They were there in less than 3 minutes; they do not take it to lightly when staff have to call for help. So, they took her out in handcuffs. One of the officers came back in and did his wellness check and made sure I was ok. I'm fine. So, I already wrote the DR (Disciplinary Report) and by Tuesday she will be put in lock. I'm done playing...actually, let's not even get playing. So, yeah...I survived. And every day when I exit the facility, I thank the good Lord for keeping me somewhat safe and returning to the husband/home. It ain't no joke working in a prison. Just saying.

HA! So true. 

Wishing you all a beautiful day. 

It is pool time, it looks like it will rain around noon or so. I will get caught up with your posts then. It is already 84* at 7:15 am.

Hello August...

 

Already. Where has the year gone? If you are wondering, there is not much anything that can be done regarding the ac situation at work. The whole compound is suffering (and yes, the dorms and cells have ac, not across the street though at the larger older prison), and I will add most of Florida is suffering. Maintenance did come down and promptly told me it needed to be set at 78 and keep it there. Ok Dokey...I did cut class short again yesterday-let them go at 5, the bossman is ok with it. It gave me about 40 minutes to do the end of the month reports etc. It wasn't as miserable as the day before, but it still was warm.

We are sweltering in a major heat wave. Now, before I hear about it, yes, Florida is known for extreme temps, not though in multiple days of it. Usually we would get a break, but what little rain and thunderstorms we do get, it only makes it worse. Another warning for today, another day of 113*. 

In the middle of hurricane season and still no storms. August-Oct. is when it usually gets interesting. 

Wishing you all a beautiful day!
