Sunday, Aug. 11

Hubbie woke up earlier than I did and was downstairs when I got up around 8 a.m. on this rainy morning.  Shortly after breakfast, he accompanied Mother to our house, and we got a pork loin ready for the slow cooker. Mother quartered onions, Hubbie peeled potatoes, and I did the rest.

We did our usual Sunday routine after that. Daughter slept until noon, so she wasn't up long before I put dinner on the table.

We had the pork loin, with carrots, onions, and potatoes, and I made a recipe of gravy to go with it. Served the meal with tomatoes from the garden, and individual cups of applesauce. Daughter really enjoyed the meal.

Afterward, we watched the movie, "Mud," starring Matthew McConaughey. It was a free On Demand movie, compliments of our cable company. We could choose any movie we wanted, and this was one we have been looking forward to seeing. It's really good, and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Daughter stayed to visit for a while longer after the movie, and then headed home around 5:30. Before she left, we had supper...everyone chose something different to eat. Daughter opted for a deli turkey and provolone cheese sandwich, with a side of cottage cheese; Hubbie had barbecue on a bun; Mother wanted a hot dog and chips; and I ate a bowl of potato soup.

Hubbie accompanied Mother home afterward, and then he and I watched TV, including a strange movie, "Prometheus," in which explorers discover the origins of man, then have to do battle to save mankind.
