Day 25 A restful day
in LA
I woke briefly at 4 the again just before 6 when I heard
Oscar return. Yesterday this would have been 9! My foot was sore, so I took
some tablets. Made a cuppa and went back to bed with the intention of catching
up. That didn’t happen. I made sure Troy was up for school. Teagan had the day
off. Oscar was asleep on the couch.
After breakfast I started the laundry, went through the
cupboards to see what we could have for dinner and decided on pasta sauce with
lots of vegetables. Amazingly I found empty packets and boxes in the pantry? (Susan
had been gone for a week.)
When I opened my emails I found one from Maureen to
tell me about my success at this year’s Lilydale Show. So I wrote to Deb, my
quilter, telling her the good news and then a short speech for Maureen to read
on Sunday at the presentation. Apparently I got “Best of” in two categories
which was really surprising. And I will miss it!
Oscar drove Teagan, I and Churro to the shops. Teagan and
Churro waited outside while I got a few items. It took longer than expected, because of a long wait at the deli section. I put items into my back pack and fold up shopping bag and then we all
walked home. Churro had lots of fun sniffing everything.
We arrived home just as Oscar was leaving. He had some jobs
to do before work. But I found that he had rewashed the clothes that I had just
taken out of the dryer before we left. Extra clean? Shopping away. I folded the
laundry, sorted my bag for this part of the trip, did a bit of cleaning and
then it was lunch time.
By the afternoon I finally had enough thinking space to sit
down and download photos, answer a few emails and wrap a cold pack around my
foot, which seem to help a little bit. Teagan played with her Minecraft game. Churro was resting after his long walk. Troy home from school. I made dinner for the family, washed the dishes and we settled back to wait for Susan. She arrived at 9:15, ate some dinner. The kids went to bed and I followed soon after.
