Am I gullible or what?
Ron and I were watching the Shark Tank on tv the other night and I was
caught up in the RapidRamen Cooker. It
sounded like something that would work for my brother. Ramen noodles cooked to perfection in the
microwave. It sounded very simple to use
so I ended up ordering it from Amazon. I am always looking for anything Mike can fix
for himself and he is doing pretty darn good with a microwave.
Well, yesterday when I went grocery shopping I checked out
the Ramen Noodles. And just my luck the
ingredients list wheat flour and Mike is allergic to wheat. Now, I guess I’ll find out if the RapidRamen
Cooker will cook any other kind of noodle.
Oh, and after reading about Ramen
noodles they don’t sound very healthy anyway.
Too much preservative added.
Speaking of Mike, he’s really been doing better about
limiting the phone calls. He hasn’t
called me once at work since I returned last week. He’s not calling us every 15 minutes at home
either. It has made such a difference
and I’m actually happier when I do talk to him.
The more independent he is the happier we all are including Mike.
Ron watched a football game with Mike at his house on
Saturday and Ron came home telling me how much better the house looked and that
Mike is doing better keeping it clean.
We are definitely seeing
improvement. Hooray!
Here’s a little tidbit of information that may be useful to
you at some time. Mike had an invasion
of gnats at his house a few weeks ago.
They had gotten pretty bad and were annoying the tar out of Mike and
anyone else who happened to stop by for a visit. So I did a little research and made him some
gnat traps. I got small mason jars and
filled them about a quarter of the way with apple cider vinegar. I punched holes in the lids and screwed them
on the jars. I put 3 traps around the house where the gnats were
and left them there for a few days. NO
MORE GNATS. The gnats are drawn to the
vinegar and go in through the holes but drown in the vinegar. Easy fix!
Well, 326 more days until retirement……but who’s counting!
