After a week filled with troubling events, tiring moments, and emotional ups and downs, Don and I found ourselves thoroughly worn out and ready for some peace and quiet. And that is exactly how we filled our day.
We did set the house in order, but did it at a slow and tranquil pace. And there is something quite healing in setting your environment back into order. We worked a little, sat a little, worked a little, had some coffee or such, worked a bit, napped a bit or a lot (Don - a lot, myself - just a couple of short dozes.) The only break in this routine was to shower and run up to see Clyde at the hospital. He was fine, and will be returning to Rawlins House tomorrow, so he must be healing. We took him some Kit Kat bars and a couple of Reeses bars. He promptly ate one of each. It was sort of a reverse trick or treat, where the scary visitors furnish the treats!
After feeding Clyde the chocolate, we fed some noisy machines some pennies. And yes, they happily took our money and gave us back nothing! Then it was time to feed ourselves. We had had the rest of the ham sandwiches last evening and for lunch, so we needed a change. We opted for Italian food - the fast kind at Fazolis. Actually it tasted quite good.
This evening I did some mending, some laundry, and watched the Colts barely escape from Washington with a W in the win column. Whew! They had a tough time. But with a little help from the clock, they pulled it out.
I hope this coming week will be happily uneventful.
