Friday
I got up at 8, having woken at 1 and stayed awake for a long time. I went through my morning list in a leisurely fashion. I checked e-mail, then went to clean for 1:45 minutes. I came home at noon to eat fiber gel from yesterday and lay out in the sun.
After having breakfast, we went to the commissary. Afterward, we went to Tooele for a few things and to shop at Melanies. When we got home, there was not really enough time to go clean.
Chris made supper while I read e-mail. I ate the bowl of beef and rice he gave me. He left for his game while I got dressed for the tea party. I drove up the hill to the commander's house. I put on my hat and knocked on the door. Michele opened it, having arrived just a bit earlier.
The ladies were dressed nicely, but a few of us stood out. Anna Marie had a ballgown. Michele wore the bustle dress she'd made. I wore the blue hat I made in Korea with the matching dress. Anca said I looked like the Queen of England. Ria had put out a nice spread of tea-type treats. So we chatted as we partook. Then we gathered in the living room to play a game where you tell three things about yourself and one is a lie.
It was after 8:30 when I left. I went home to change clothes and prepare a bottle of tea. I worked on my blog but didn't post it. I went to Michelle's house to feed the cat. I also turned on the game and once it loaded, I was able to play. I learned how to shoot the snake, but could not progress from there. I clicked on HELP, and that got me an error. I tried to reload the game but it didn't work.
I noticed the lights on in the back yard. I looked out and saw potted plants. So I texted Casey asking if he wanted them watered and he said yes. He also helped me get the game back online. Then I went out to water the plants. However, the door shut behind me and it was locked. So I was outside with no phone, no keys and no ID. I decided to walk home.
As I passed Saronna's house, I noticed the lights were on and the front door open. There were 4 pup tents in the front yard. So I walked up to the door and knocked gently. Randy answered so I went in. Although it was after 11, he was still up. I told him my predicament. He called Casey and Casey called Dispatch and Dispatch said they would open it in half an hour. So I sat and talked to them for that time.
I walked back to Michelle's house where the policeman was standing. He asked for ID and I indicated the house. He unlocked the door and I brought out my ID. Then he left. I reloaded the game. I had Indy shoot the snake and I saved that game. Then I shut everything down and said goodbye to the cat.
When I got home, I did my bedtime routine and crawled in beside Chris. It took awhile to get to sleep.
