Thwarted game night

Friday

I got up before 7:30. I got dressed and brushed. I took supplements, etc. I turned on the sprinklers. I watered the plants. I got a few rounds of sprinkling in before I had to head to the chapel for Bible Study.

Janet and Summer were already there. Later Katie and Jenni joined us. We talked about water quality, then we read through the first chapter of John and discussed it. Summer and Jenni left. The rest of us chatted. Then I turned off all the lights, even the ones that shouldn't have been on. I also locked the doors which Janet found unlocked when she arrived.

It was almost 11 when I got home. I parsed out a week's worth of supplements. I ate fiber gel, then made more breakfast mix. So I was late actually making and eating breakfast.

After breakfast, I laid out in the sun and read for awhile. Then I came in. We got ready and went to the commissary for groceries. Jenni was there bagging. We took our food home and put it away. Then we went to Tooele for figs and organic fruit. Melanie's did not have what I was looking for. We got figs at Macey's, then headed back to base, listening to the book on CD.

I read e-mail while Chris cooked beef shanks. I wore the Kaatsu arm bands and went out to cut down weeds around a tree. When I came in, the shanks were done. I ate one, but there were lots of bites I couldn't chew. I put those back in the toaster oven to cook some more, and promptly forgot about them.

I prepared for game night. I made tea and took notes. I put on long pants. I went over to Casey's house at 8:30. The lonely cat greeted me. Since they were visiting Michelle, I turned on the TV and the raspberry pie in order to play the game. But the pie didn't respond to the game boy controller. I tried plugging and unplugging, jiggling this and that. But finally I put everything back the way it was and went home, locking the door.

Chris was surprised to see me. But he was willing to watch Criminal Minds. I turned off the toaster oven and we watched one episode. Then I worked on my blog. Later Chris went to bed. I stayed up to listen to BWE and piece puzzles.
