Turn, Turn, Turn . . .

Well, we got our surprise turn-around to night shift today. After I got off today at 5pm, I come back in tomorrow evening at 5:30pm



But it’s only me that’s turning around. Jan is off until she comes back in for two days, Tuesday and Wednesday, only still on day shift. After that we don’t know for her.

We were hoping to both be able to work until we leave in a few weeks, but right now that’s up in the air.

We’ll see how it goes. It seems things change minute by minute.

I had only 5 vehicles into the pad today, but that’s all going to change in the next couple of days when the frack crew starts moving in. Then it’s going to get really busy.

After last night’s Whataburger visit, tonight we decided to again visit La Bella Tavola for dinner. This is our 3rd visit in the week we’re been here because it’s that good.

Last time we had pizza, but this time we went back for the pasta dishes. Jan once again got her favorite Chicken Alfredo.

While I had my new favorite dish for the first time, Chicken Florentine.

La Bella Tavola Chicken Florentini

It’s two chicken breasts sautéed with fresh mushrooms, fresh garlic, fresh spinach in a sherry wine cream sauce over spaghetti. Probably the best pasta dish I’ve ever had. So it’s my new go-to dish there.

Unless we have pizza.

We’ve been eating out more than usual just because of our limited time after working a 12 hour shift. And Jan (or me) just doesn’t feel like actually fixing anything. So we either eat out or we have leftovers from eating out.



We’ll both get another meal out of tonight’s dishes, and we got 3 leftover meals from the pizza. In fact the only place we don’t have leftovers from is Whataburger.

But that’s because it’s Whataburger.
