helwenDay 8: Birthday lunch went well, nice time with relatives, and a few pictures taken. My cousin Cary will be emailing pics to me later. You know, I forget what we did after that, but we did finish off the night with a foreign language mystery. One of the channels here has international mystery nights - subtitles, thankfully. Last night was in French, and it was funny at one point when there was both English and French subs and my Mom wondered what was going on with that -- they were speaking in Italian at the time.
Day 9: Stiff this morning - had a little wheat at lunch - it was just easier to accept the little custard pie from Auntie D than try to explain my change in diet. Happily I could sort through the rest of the dim sum pretty safely. Still more carbs than I'm used to, so made a nice bit of scrambled eggs this morning to help offset some of that. Eggs, a smidge of almond milk (adds loft), some cheddar, kale, and garlic. Nom!
But before breakfast, worked on my shoulders a bit, then out the door at 6:43 a.m. (56F in the shade), for some warm ups. Ran through all the hand forms except 8 Step Link, got a little further in Spear (yes, need to review that over the phone yet again, and maybe write down a few notes this time), finished up with 1/2 mile or so walk. I was going to do some Chin Na too but ran out of steam, so only 47 minutes outside. Showered and made breakfast, hard boiled a few eggs, took out the trash, did a little dusting.
Off to look at some vintage beads and jewelry and contemplate how and what to pack of some things. Probably have mom try on a couple of jumpers for pinning to new length, and hem them later. Work on flyer, help her re-learn how to attach and send files, and some other computer stuff.
Be well!
