It was a horrible night. RLS kept visiting me. The treatments worked, but not for more than an hour or so. Therefore, I got up late, like around 8. I did Sudoku. Chris took his shower and went to Mass. I started my morning list. I was out watering plants when he got home. I planted the 4 seedlings that Michele gave me into the 4 empty spots in the tower garden. I also reset the traps and added mint leaves to one of them. It seems the gophers are digging a nexus of tunnels so that the water doesn't fill one tunnel, but spreads out among several.
When I came in, I asked Chris for a massage. After the massage, I took a shower. I made a bowl of yogurts with pumpkin seeds. I read e-mail, then made and ate breakfast. I went to 607 just before 2. Davis was there mowing the lawn. I went upstairs to work on baseboards. Isadora arrived to finish the master bathroom and to clean the other two bathrooms. After I had cleaned all the baseboards, I discovered that the walls needed scrubbing as well. The dirt was in between all the little lumps of paint - at least in the master bedroom and under the windows in the other bedrooms. Probably from a dog. I gave up trying to wipe away all the pet hair clinging to the walls. After I finished scrubbing, I went back with a vacuum and swept the hairs off.
Davis left. Isadora called her mom to pick her up. But by the time she arrived, I was leaving as well. I talked to her through the passenger window, then saw Michele and John pull out of their driveway. I knew they were going to my house for dinner so I wrapped up the conversation and went home.
Chris had cooked cod in a coconut curry sauce. So we all had dinner together. We chatted until I noticed the time, jumped up and headed to the chapel. When I got there, I realized I didnt have my phone. I went through my project bag looking for the chenille pumpkin. When John and Michele arrived, I went to 607 to pick it up. When I got back, I handsewed seams on a linen nightgown. John was gluing figures. Then they left early. So I packed up and called Michelle. She encouraged me to come over for a substitute Game Night. So I did. We chatted as the ice monster killed Indy over and over again. She looked up a walkthrough and we saw how Indy was supposed to get to the third floor. But it was an awful lot of big jumps in a row, all while getting shot at.
We stopped at 11, but kept talking. She was trying to convince me to pause all my community actvities until after Christmas.
I left at 11:30 and went home. Chris had washed the bedding but it wasn't dry yet, so we we slept in the guest room and sadly, RLS still found me.
