Last Thursday: Left work at 640 again Thursday night. Stopped by Publix and the bank and picked up M in Cumming at 7:50. M was hungry so we used a BOGO at Fuddruckers near North Point Mall. I hadn’t been in years. The restaurant had been made over, which had been needed. Burger was almost as good as the one at The Big Ketch or the H&F burger at Turner Field. Great meat and light, fluffy, just baked bun. Both M and I ate half our burgers and fries and took the rest home (a first for me). Watched The Middle and worked on the computer then went to bed.
 
Tuesday: Had to go pick up M after work last night. Worked until 6:30 and made it to my three usual stores before 8 pm. Passed on a green-trimmed Reds Pete Rose St. Patrick’s Day jersey but used the senior discount to pick up a pair of black Nikes and black Columbia shirt. I have several light colored fishing shirts but had been looking for a darker colored one. Was after nine by the time M and I got home.
 
Ceil had made shepherd’s pie, but I passed. Later I caved and ate one slice of pizza, and some cereal. No leftovers to take for lunch the last two days so I’ve been eating cereal and yogurt.
