Not a good day for me, personally. I woke up with a headache - and I can't shake it. I've had liquid, I've had breakfast, noggin still in pain.
I've got the bread going, next comes the chicken hearts. Sigh ...
I've decided to do the potatoes WITH the shin, in one go, rather than separately.
Sigh ... change of plan, I'm afraid. I chopped the potatoes, added the celery and carrots ... and the pot was full! No space for the meat! So ... turned on the pressure cooker, and I'll be doing the meat after that's done.
Not doing well. Head is not happy. I even just fell asleep - and didn't have the energy to even close the front door gate. Seems like it was just a short nap, though. Potatoes are done, just waiting for the pressure to release - in the meantime, I'm frying the chicken hearts. I have to wash dishes in between ... because the potato soup needs to go into the bowl, where the raw chicken hearts are now.
Sigh ... way, WAY too much potato soup! I'm going to have to bag and freeze it ... not that I feel up to it. I also need to mince and freeze the chicken hearts ... powering through a massive headache, just so I can go to work? Not sane!
Aaand load shedding going up a Stage tonight. Instead of the planned Stage 4, we'll enjoy Stage 5! Not that it affects our schedule - thank goodness!
Almost three, and the potato soup is finalised. Three bags in the freezer. I still have to stew the shin, mince the hearts, pack them ... wash the dishes ... one hour is not enough time, not the way I'm feeling!
Quarter to four, I don't know how, but I managed to get everything done. Still need to pack some of the shin - with sauce - in the freezer ... once they're done. Also need to wash the pressure cooker. Make my lunch, re-fill the kibble pots, clean the litter boxes ... etc. etc. I'm so sick and tired of this load shedding! It sucks! I really don't want to still do chores after six! I want to relax!
Well, publishing now ...
