We were, for the most part, homebodies today, nursing the varnmint back to health after her operation. In the morning, she would not drink,k so Mary found a syringe in her doctoring bag,g and we gave her water all day long.
For most of the day, we stayed right by her side. Mary went to her new “book club,” called “The Book Biddies,” made up of ladies from our neighborhood who meet one Tuesday a month to talk about the most recent book they all read.
The book club began at 10:00 am and ended at noon, so Mary went directly to her painting class, leaving Nurse Paul to take care of the patient.
