I finally figured out Mike’s evil plan… the recreational event last night featured a hot tub, and I soaked (and stretched) for a very long time. This morning I lay in bed and contemplated that I wasn’t experiencing any pain for the first time in a long time. As soon as I sat down in a conventional chair, that all stopped, but at least I was pain free for a few hours, and today I’m all slow and stupid with relief.
Katie and Keith are both supposed to show up today. If they do I’ll cook them a meal but I will wait until they get here to plot what.
Today, laundry and puttering, at least until the kids arrive. I had to tell Katie not to bother with a mother’s day present (Keith is smart enough to know he doesn’t have to bother) but that I would enjoy it if she turned up. I’m thinking tortillas… it’s enough of a production to be mildly festive. And, of course, if you feel like it, you can read my Mother’s Day homily, which pretty much encapsulates my feelings on the subject.
I read your Mother’s Day homily and was thinking that giving my Mom a plant or tree for her garden would help Mother Earth.
While in the re-design phase, I thought I’d put in a request for more entries in the recent Comments section or a link at the bottom of the Comments section to the most recent links.
… I meant next most recent comments.
OK, I found the most recent comments. They are under “Meta” then “Comments RSS”.
