Busy Day
I got three things done today.
First, I had lunch at a friend's house. She was trying out a new receipe and we enjoyed her quiche and a good visit in her bright and beautiful kitchen. Grace is a splendid cook and a great conversationalist. She's one of the ladies I do pool aerobics with every weekday morning. We also both belong to the Red Hat Society and the Lunch Bunch as well as the Breakfast Club, so I see her often.
After lunch and a brief rest, I went to Wal-Mart to pick up my meds. I was smart, I went in, got my pills and went straight back out without looking at a single other thing. I was already tired when I got there because I had made a wrong turn, forgetting I was on my way to Wal-Mart, so ended up in Poincianna instead. It was a nice drive, though.
As I was driving, the air conditioner didn't seem to be working. It was blowing tepid air, not cool air. I began to pray, dreading having to go to the repair shop. Then I realized I had the temp dial turned to warm! When I turned it back to cool, I was rewarded with the icy blast of a healthy AC unit, praise God. He didn't have to fix the AC, just remind me about the dial,
I got lost again on the way home from Wal-Mart, but this time, I was trying to see if a new road would take me on a more scenic route. It was scenic all right. I ended up at the land fill.
It was almost six in the evening by the time I finally made it to the grocery store, but even though I was already tired (and that's not a good thing for me) I had my list and stuck to it and was out of there in about an hour. I even remembered to bring all the groceries in from the car and got everything put away before Richard got home from work.
It was a blessed day and we had a pleasant time playing Gin Rummy on the computer after dinner. We play on http://pogo.com The graphics are cute and they do all the scoring and card shuffling. Also, they help you keep track of "legal" moves or plays, etc. We both enjoy Pogo a lot.
So, now the day is spent and so am I... a gentle fatigue, and almost a welcome one. How thankful I am to live in a safe place, enjoying the peace and security of our quiet home.
