SQUIRREL MORNINGS

I find that on the weekends if I don’t have solid plans, I tend to SQUIRREL around the house. I had to tinkle, so I got up from peddling, did my thing, then I noticed the small jar of baking soda, that I keep in the bathroom cabinet for late night heartburn was empty, so I picked it up and headed for the pantry, but wait, I should start the laundry, so I picked up our laundry basket and headed to the kitchen. Started the first load of laundry, remembering that John had mentioned that he sure could go for biscuits and gravy. So I took the frozen biscuits out of the freezer and placed a few in the oven. Then I gathered the things for gravy and mixed that up. Filled the baking soda jar, then thought I would like some warm tea. So I filled my tea strainer with my favor loose blend, but wait, the jar I keep Stevia packets in needs filled. So I filled it and made my tea. Then I got the ham, cheese, eggs and cream out and I noticed how nasty the refrigerator drawer was, so I emptied it and gave it a really good washing. And yes I kept stirring the gravy so it would burn or clump. 
Then I made the glorified scrambled eggs. Then I put the refrigerator drawer back in the fridge, resisting the internal battle to clean the entire fridge out. But I saw the milk had expired and tossed the end of that. I took the biscuits out of the oven, plated breakfast like a pro, and washed the cast iron skillet. Then I  realized that I had been in the kitchen so long that the first load of wash was finished. So I put it in the dryer and started load number two. I grabbed my breakfast bowl and my now tepid mug of tea and the jar of baking soda. I replaced the jar, reorganizing the bathroom cabinet and headed back to my chair, where I planned to keep peddling, but ended up writing all this and now my breakfast and tea are cold. 

TMI? Sorry!!! Just a hilarious glimpse of my morning!
