Estimated reading time: 3 minutes
We were up and moving early because I had a blood test scheduled at 10:00 am and a carotid artery ultrasound at 11:00 am. Even though I practiced for the blood test, it is always an experience.
We drove about six miles to the 1010 Building and waited until 11:15 am to get the carotid ultrasound.
We decided to half the leftovers for lunch and went home to reheat last night’s dinner from Darya’s. The meal was perfect and kept us out of the refrigerator the rest of the day!
Collen was gone when she took the van to pick up Joe and the crew, and they drove to the desert for a CIF Soccer Playoff game.
The day was dreary, so I did some work on the garage before coming inside and reading my current Clive Cussler adventure. Mary joined me in the TV/Living room, where we both read until 8:30 pm. It was nice to get over four hours of reading time, and I was really getting into The Corporation’s current adventure about the golden Buddha and the island of Macau. In my mind, I was part of the team! I could NOT put down the Paperwhite!
Mary and I share the same library (as we like to read the same things).
We have at least four Paperwhites between us, and since they keep track of where you are, we can keep one in the bedroom and the other as a traveler. Mine is red, and Mary’s is pink! We love its capabilities, especially its built-in dictionary.
With the touch of a finger, a dictionary and a thesaurus are available.
At 8:30 pm, we turned on the boob tube and continued watching “Suits,” where Louis becomes a named partner. Mary and I agreed that if we had to work with Louis, we would have thrown him out the 38th-floor window!
Finally, around 10:30-ish, we shut off the TV, turned out the lights, and headed for bed. As I fell asleep, I was thinking about growing upn the 1950s, they were amazing times!
Absolutely nothing happened all day—so naturally, we were exhausted.
