Slow-roasted tongue

Thursday

I got up late. I could smell the beef tongue that Chris had in the oven. I went through the usual morning routine. I went to Bible study at 9. We went through two chapters of John and discussed them. We chatted afterward. It was almost 11 till I got home.

I drank fiber gel and read outside. It was too cold to wear a bathing suit. I made and ate breakfast while watching The Highwire. I paused it at 2 to go to Saronna's house. We played through the hymns and Christmas music. She gave me a jar of pear juice. Then I went cleaning down the street at 3:30. I went home just before 5.

I ate the rest of the fiber gel. I read messages, then ate some of the tongue Chris slow-roasted all day. I watched part of An Inconvenient Study.

I tried to get a hold of Chris, then headed to Game Night with a box of Scrabble. I stopped at the garden to pick the tiny squash that will never grow up. Then I arrived at the Community Club. I joined Game Night already in progress. I played Scrabble with children and adults, usually only one at a time. Chris showed up, but he played a card game with some others. He helped my opponents, then went home. I played with Cedric and Casey, then Michelle showed up. She took a pic of the board when we got all the tiles placed. Hard-core Scrabble players would be horrified at what rules we broke. We all went home.

I jotted notes for my blog. I made tea. We watched one episode of Criminal Minds. Then we each retired to our laptops until 11. I got ready and went to bed. Chris joined me. I had a hard time falling asleep. RLS visited. Finally I took the homeopathic remedy and fell asleep till morning.
