I’m about halfway through Becky’s trip to Cali. The girls are still alive, actually they are doing well all things considered. Since my illness makes me lethargic and my medications make me downright sleepy, I’m not much fun. We have been trying to make it fun for all of us, sometimes it works, sometimes not so much.
Anna loves to ride bikes, I used to love to ride bikes. Anna wants me to ride with her, I want to cry after going two blocks. I have to plan our rides so that I have opportunities to rest and it has to keep her entertained while I recuperate. Thank God for the retention pond full of fish and geese.
Desiree is happy to just sit around and read all day, as long as the book has something to do with vampires. Twilight has really ruined vampires for me. I used to think they were cool when they started to smoke and then explode in sunlight, now they just sparkle, STUPID!
We have all had input on meals. Yes our meals have not been the healthiest fare at times, but we are trying and hey, it’s only for a week. Desi picked and cooked the meal Wednesday night, her choice was chicken sausage and fried cucumbers. Quite a surprise for me. I had tried fried pickles before and loved them, fried cukes was a first. Surprisingly we all liked them, even Anna, once she doctored them with ketchup.
Anna wants stir fry Thursday night. She wants to help cook it too. I have a feeling this is going to be a learning experience for both of us. Stay tuned to find out!
