Dinner at Michele's

Wednesday

I got up at 7:30. I prepared for coffee morning. I told Al and Cecily that I had a morning schedule to keep. Al spent the morning on hold with the IRS and then the call dropped. Cecily read a book.

When I was done with coffee morning, I cleaned the house and vacuumed the floors and mopped the kitchen. I also watered the indoor plants. I went to the garden and moved the hose to water different plants.

I went to the post office building to see the new hairdresser. She said Chris had been her first customer. I was like the 3rd or 4th . She cut my hair and trimmed my eyebrows. Because I'm over 60, it was only $15. We chatted until the chaplain came in for a haircut. Then I went home.

I made copies of Leavin on a jet plane. I read some e-mail, then took a break to sit outside. I came in at 4 when the giant voice system did its loud test. I read some more and worked on my blog. I took a push dose, then sat outside again to read. Suddenly I realized it was time to meet Keli and Saronna at the chapel, so I grabbed my trombone and went. Saronna wasn't there, but Keli was. We played through Leaving on a Jet Plane twice. She went home.

I went out to my car. As I pulled out, the priest was pulling in. I went home and took the catch dose. Chris was already home. He loaded his parents into his car and headed to the chapel for Mass. I got a container and walked out to the bale of straw to harvest some for mulch.

I saw Chris drive back. I thought he saw me. But when he didn't leave again, I went in. He was looking for my key to the chapel because the priest had forgotten his. So I told him it was the orange one. I spread straw on the pots of tomatoes, peas, and radishes. I came in to read. I sent a message about the new CDC recommendations to people on the list. I listened to part of an interview on heavy metals. I watered the outside plants and a gopher hole.

Then I drove to Michele's house. Al and Cecily and Chris were already there, having just left the chapel. Michele was serving dinner. She placed a pack of stretch needles by my place. She put a burger with cheese in front of each person. Then she remembered that it was my fasting day. I decided to eat because it was a special thing for us to have a meal there. She also served sweet potato chunks and a cut up zucchini. There wasn't much so all I had was the burger. It tasted really good because she had mixed in chorizo. But I think it didn't digest so well because later my hands hurt for the rest of the night.

After dinner, Chris and Al went back to get the cake and ice cream. They ate and we all chatted. When Cecily got tired, they got in Chris' car and he drove them back to our house. I took my car and stopped by the garden to shut off the water.

Cecily went to bed. I sat at my computer to check e-mail and Al talked to me for over an hour. Finally he went to bed and I stayed up to write about my day. Actually he came back several times to say one more thing. Then he went to bed and I finished writing. I realized I had not used the progesterone, but decided I was not leaving the bedroom again.
