We got up after 8 EST. He took a
shower while I washed out of the sink because my foot still hurts
where the splinters were and I didn't want to get the bandaid wet. I
put hydrogen peroxide on it afterward, but there was no fizzing so
why won't it heal? My stomach felt distended and uncomfortable,
probably from eating restaurant food. Chris ate the leftovers from
his meal last night, and I ate my prepared breakfast from home. We
got on the road about 10. We finished yesterday's book on CD and
started another one. The trip to Richmond was fairly uneventful.
The GPS tried to take us a different route than usual, and insisted
we turn around for what seemed like an hour. Then some one had
dropped a drawer in the middle of the road and we had to swerve
around it. Our first stop was for kimchi in Chester, and then we
went to my parents' house. Dad and Chris went grocery shopping while
I fed Mom Ensure, yogurt, cruciferous juice, and half a sub. Then I
trimmed the quilt I brought and started sewing the binding. The men
came home with more food than seemed necessary. Dad took his time
putting it away. I think he gets distracted. Chris read e-mail in
the living room. The TV went off. At first we thought it was the
breaker, then the outlet. But it was a GFCI in the kitchen. I don't
know why the TV outlet is on that circuit. Then Mom got to watch TV
for awhile. We missed part of Lawrence Welk's Christmas special.
When the next show was over, I took her back to get all washed up for
tomorrow. Then I fed her Ensure with pills. Dad and I brushed her
teeth and put her in bed. It took 2 hours. Now I'm ready for bed,
but Dad isn't. He's still eating, I think.
