Hickory Hollow | Houston, Texas | Chicken Fried Steak with Erin

I met Erin at her place after work where we caught up for a few hours before heading to Hickory Hollow. John was working so she ended up bringing him food back. The chicken fried steak are the size of our faces and then some. I wouldn’t say this is the best I’ve ever had. Probably The Black Bear Diner beats them with their thick juicy steak where the breading doesn’t fall off.

As we were walking back to her apartment and me to my car we got stopped. The train literally started right as we were about to cross. We couldn’t believe our luck. Fortunately it was only less than ten minutes long and didn’t stop like it usually does.

The view from their rooftop parking. It is so gorgeous but with the tracks being so close I wouldn’t want to live here. Loudness and always getting stuck. No bueno. But the view …

I’m hoping to move out in the next year but we’ll see how things go.

[2018] 351/365: Traffic and Pretty Skies

The gorgeous sky makes up for the two-hour traffic today. I am hoping to move out so that I won’t be in this situation soon. Aiming for a year but we’ll see. Maybe I’ll rent a place instead of buy because I’m poor.

Work has it’s highs and lows. Mostly highs lately but I am not sure how long that will last until it comes crashing down again. I can only cross my fingers and hope that all goes well, at least until the new year.

Rizzo Cuddles

Sissy and BIL came over super early to have breakfast with me and the parents at the Black Bear Diner. It’s easily one of my favourite chicken fried steak places but I told myself to change it up and got the Scrambowl. I am not a fan of their biscuits only because I never liked biscuits to begin with.

2018 | 350/365 | Rizzo Asleep on Mellie Dee

[2018] 350/365: Rizzo Cuddles

The boys went home and the girls went to Target to shop. When I got home I cuddled with Rizzo for a bit and he fell asleep on me and he was too cute that I didn’t move even though I had a lot to do.

I received my Christmas present from Patricia! A necklace with a heart and infinity. I’m very excited to have a makeup organizer. A better one than what I have now. Eeek! Now I just need to clean my room before I can actually use it. Need to find a place for it. Thanks, Patricia!!!

Relaxing Saturday

[2018] 349/365: Give a Smile

This morning was SO relaxing. I haven’t had a morning like this in years. The whole house was to myself and it was just me and the pups. I enjoyed a cup of tea in front of the tree while watching a new Hong Kong drama.

If you have nothing else to give, give a smile.

Rocky decided to spend more time with me today and even jumped up on my bed and took a long, long nap. He hasn’t done that in a while and I guess Rizzo was feeling a little jealous that I was giving so much attention to Rocky that he decided to come out of the burrow of blankets so that I would pet him too. We don’t deserve such kind, loving hearts. Sigh …

I spent the day playing with the pups, laying around with the pups, drawing, playing the guitar, writing a new song, and watching my Hong Kong drama. I am finding myself again and it’s quite lovely getting so much time to myself. I know soon, I’d want to get out of the house again but for the time being, saving money is and added plus.

Milk Cow Houston | Katy, Texas

After work I volunteered to take Joel home since it looked as if it was going to rain. We stopped by Whataburger since I haven’t eaten and he talked about his relationship woes before I dropped him off.

Mum’s coworker’s son opened up Milk Cow Houston in Katy and we decided to stop by. I was surprised at how light and fluffy it was! And it was nice to talk to the son and the family.

Since I hadn’t had dinner Mum joined me at Fish City Grill before going home. We overdosed on oysters. I was a but sad that the bluepoints were not fatty enough.

It’s been a long week and I’m glad I have a weekend of chill. Here’s to sleeping in all day and night!
