Feeling MUCH Better

Posted on 12/01/202404/19/2025 by Mark

Niko goes back to school and I go back to work tomorrow. Both of us are feeling much better. Niko has two more does of medication remaining.  We didn’t do anything fun in the world, although I tried yesterday, and it was a huge NOPE from him. I did a quick run to Half Price Books on Friday and Goodwill on Saturday.

Next to Half Price Books is a tamale place, and I wanted some. Well, when I pulled in, there were like 6,241 cars ahead of me in the drive-through, so that was a NOPE from me. It’s funny, because 99.9% of the time when I am alone running errands in the world, I tend to get some food and drink. And sometimes, my car will drive itself somewhere for food and I agree with her choices. And when I get food, I always think of Nina and Niko and if it’s a place they may like, I will get food for them.

So, instead of tamales, I went to a tack place near our house and there were only 8 cars ahead of me in the drive-through. I ordered two chicken fajita and two beef fajita tacos and a huge drink. I wanted tamales from them, but lost this thought as I was ordering. Too much pressure to order quick! The tacos were good, and Niko had one. Nina passed.

After Goodwill, I went to another taco place and there were only 3 cars ahead of me in the drive-through. I ordered four bacon and egg tacos and a huge drink. Well, success for food, as I had two and Nina and Niko had one.

Today, I think Niko and I will go out. My dad is showcasing his artwork and we are planning on seeing him and then I will get us lunch somewhere. See, I am always about food.
