Friday
I got up around 8. Chris was gone to some function associated with work. I brushed, gargled, swabbed and rinsed. The cold that had gone away has come back. But why? I put some hydrogen peroxide in a cup and soaked all my toothbrushes in it.
I got dressed, took supplements, and made fiber water. I put minerals and vitamin C in a quart of water and drank most of it, putting the rest in a bottle. I took the bottle with me to Math Morning. Karen was already there with Saronna's 4 kids. I worked with her and the kids kind of helped each other until Casey arrived. Then he worked with them.
BTW, Moira found a mouse in a trap and brought it to me. There was a baggie on top of the trash so I put it in there. Its a huge trash can and no one has emptied it in months.
I went home. I checked e-mail and Telegram messages. I made and ate breakfast. Chris came home from his function around 1. He had stuff to do so could not take me to Tooele. So I quickly made a grocery list and he dropped me off at Michele's house.
They weren't quite ready to go. I talked to Michele. Then John and I worked on resetting the garage code. We didn't get the keypad working, but the remote became effective. Then we piled in the car and headed to Tooele.
We chatted on the way, so I missed my Friday afternoon nap. John, who was driving, said a nap sounded good and he was going to try it right away. HA! Eventually we arrived at the bank at 2:30 for their appointment. But the lady was still working with a prior customer. Finally we got called back. I sat and listened while the lady helped Michele and John set up an account. It took a long time considering they had all the documents she asked for.
Afterward, we dropped John off at WalGreens for prescriptions. Then Michele and I went to Luckey's for groceries. She disappeared while I went to the bathroom. Her phone doesn't work here so I could not call her when I got out. John called to say he was ready. I picked up what I needed, then checked out. I found her sitting in her car.
We picked up John and then went to the Indian restaurant. They went in to get a table and I walked to Melanie's to get a few things. I didn't have my credit card so I'd had to pay cash at Lucky's and so I had less to spend at Melanies. Then I went to the restaurant hoping the kids were willing to pay. They had already ordered so we chatted for a few moments until the food arrived. It was very good, as before. I couldn't tell you what it was. Coconut lamb something. With rice and nan.
It was getting dark when we left. John and Michele's evening game got canceled because they were going to be late. So when they dropped me off, they stayed for a bit. Michele then went home. John helped me level up my character.
I prepared for Game Night, sadly forgetting about my blog. John and I went to Michelle's house. Michelle was asleep, but Casey was up with the kids. He called up the game: King's Quest. John worked at the keyboard, starting from where I left off last week. Using the map I made, he was able to pick up a few last things, climb the beanstalk, go to the leprechaun kingdom, get the scepter and shield, then go back to the castle. The king congratulated him, then conveniently died, leaving Sir Graham (the little figure who had all the adventures) in charge of the kingdom.
So, with that over, we looked at the other games in the directory. I picked Indiana Jones and the lost city of Atlantis. John had played it before but never finished it. There was a long introductory sequence to set the story, then we were left on a street. There was a presentation by a lady who might have clues, but the ticket taker would not let us in. So we went around back and tried to open the door. But he would not let us in. John figured out how to move nearby crates around so we could climb up the fire escape.
Eventually we got to talk to the lady and she insisted on coming along on the quest. She had clues and we found other clues. But at some point, there were no more clues and no more ways to combine the objects we had picked up.
It was also after 11. Michelle had gotten up and she gave me 4 quarts of goat milk. We thanked her and Casey and left. I dropped John off at his house. I went home and found Chris on his computer. I shut everything down and we went to bed.
