Skipped it

I was going to go in to school after we had Bob's appointment, but it is in a town that is almost an hour away. Mentally I could not juggle meals, eye drops, swimming preparations, etc. I will use some paid time off. We took our time and had a relaxed lunch on our way home. Actually ate in a roadside cafe, not at a fast food joint. I realize I am not taking the time to look at people and pay attention, just always hurrying. So today I slowed down. The food at the 56 Family Diner (on highway 56) was real food. I had fried chicken. Not fried chicken strips, fried, bone in, pieces of chicken. Never had been frozen. Bob had a chopped steak with onion and mushroom gravy. You could tell that the fries were home cut from real potatoes, and my mashed potatoes were definitely real as well. You know, we pay about the same for a meal at a fast food place as we did today at the little restaurant. You can tell it is a good place to eat, every table was full at one point while we were there. We will eat lightly tonight, and will not need a big meal. Tomorrow is a work day, and that is alright. Bob is napping now, and I am doing some housework but also being online.
