We woke up but did not get up, still
tired from yesterday. Alfred and Cecily had already gone to church
when we took our showers and got dressed. I fixed breakfast and ate
it while reading and deleting e-mail. They came home to make brunch.
We all sat together and talked while they ate. Chris put laundry
in the washer. Then they took Chris to the mall to buy him pants for
his birthday. I stayed behind to post to my blog for Saturday, and
then sit in the sun working a new kind of puzzle that Cecily gave me.
It was called Skyscraper. When they came back, Chris had new
underwear, too. Chris folded the laundry and we each put ours in our
luggage. I read e-mail in the den and tried out Cecily's laptop
cooler. I liked it because it had a cord that plugs into a USB port
for power. At 4 we all went to Kroger's to buy lobster and veggies.
Chris boiled water and Cecily put the lobsters in. I called my dad
to see if he was home yet and tell him we would be coming over later.
Cecily put cups of butter and lemon on the table. I used my ghee
instead of butter. Then we sat down to eat. Cecily said if she had
realized how much I like lobster, she would have it more often. I
told her I seldom eat it because I feel bad for the lobster (getting
boiled alive). After supper Chris and I packed the car. He put the
large flower bouquets in the back seat. We drove over to Dad's
house. Dad and Kurt came out to meet us. Between the four of us,
all the stuff in the car came in the house. I watered the flower
arrangements. The diningroom table was a mess, but it cleaned up
rather easily. Kurt and I wanted to clean the kitchen table, but
all Dad seemed interested in was eating. He received a gift basket
from Mom's doctor. I was surprised that most of the food in it was
junk food. Kurt and I looked at Dad's laptop cooler. It needed a
cord but we could not find one. Chris and Kurt tried to remove a
rogue toolbar from my laptop. Finally it was after midnight EST and
we decided to go to bed.
