Started off the day with several extended coughing fits. Eddie, always worrying about me, turned around to ask if I was ok just in time to see my shoot a spectacular wad of phlegm through my clenched fist (I was covering my mouth while coughing, as usual). I took several medications, which caused a bit of a dizzy, carsick feeling when I stook up to fast when we were getting ready to leave, and then we headed out to Mom’s house.

At Mom’s I made a frozen chocolate pie. It was perhaps one of the easiest things I’ve ever made.

Ingrediants:

• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 package instant chocolate pudding
• 1 pint chocolate ice cream
• 1 pie crust (we used a chocolate graham cracker crust)

Mix pudding and milk in a bowl. Add ice cream and milk with electric beater on lowest setting. Spread into crust and stick in the freezer until ready to serve.

It turned out really really yummy. We ate the typical ham and potatos and stuff, and discussed selling Eddie’s toenail on ebay as the “Holy Toenail”, claiming that the Virgin Mary is in it. I didn’t take any pictures this year. I did get a plastic egg full of chocolates and a stuffed lamb, which is now sitting on my desk and has been named “Lambikins” because it was the first thing that I thought of when Eddie asked what I was going to name it (I’m a dork who names all her plushies)

We ordered a pizza for dinner, which should be getting here soon. We’re getting hungry.

I’ll probably end up going to the doctor’s this week. I’ll have to charge my phone so that I can make an appointment with the good doctor and switch my insurance so they don’t give me a hassle about who my primary physician is.
