December 13th

I discovered that I take things to literally.  I didn't sleep well the night before since I thought I'd ove sleep.  Julie had said she gets up between 7 and 8.  I took the hin,t so I thought, that she needed me by then.  The store that I got her banana's at didn't open until 8 so I headed out at 8.  The store was a gourmet food outlet store.  I really liked it but I couldn't find my vanilla carmel or just any kind of carmel tea. 

Arriving at Julie's I found that she was still in bed and didn't really need me until later.  After fixing her breakfast we both went to bed for a rest.  Boy did we sleep.  I woke a couple of hours later stuck in the same position and got up since I didn't want to hurt or wake Julie.  Then I fell asleep in the couch which is not comfortable but I didn't care.  I slept another 2 hours.  Jule woke just a bit before I did so we both caught up on our sleep. 

We woke hungry.  I put on the artichokes and Julie was talking about getting a board for her 1000 piece puzzle.  It was 20 x 27 so I was off to the hardware store to get a piece of plywood.  I had to find parking and going around the block I discovered a Seventh Day Adventist Church.   Interesting since I had been SDA a long time ago.  I found it interesting that while I got my piece cut 31 inches long and it was already 24 inches high so plenty big enough for our puzzle, a man wanted the other piece.  How cool to help someone else out.

 The artichokes came out really good so well worth the money I paid for them.  It's always nice to have food turn out great.  We also had some black bean soup but it didn't have substance. It needed some black beans.  Julie usually had her soup with black beans in it too.

After lunch I dealt with some work issues and Julie watched tv.  Julie did well with her pain meds and felt pretty good.  She wrote every time she took her meds.  I found it strange to see my daughter give herself her shot for blood thinner shot.  She's really good at it.

Since there wasn't much food in Julie's refrigerator so I decided that she needed food.  I got a list and discovered the things Julie wanted.  I also wanted to to the Raley's which is called Nob Hill in Alameda, and discover if they had my carmel tea.  I found all of the things Julie wanted but I could only find vanilla tea which I got.

Julie had wanted to go to a party but was too late when Mason got back to her.  It was probably better to relax and rest another day.  I left for Pam's when Mason got home.  It was good to get back home.  I had a nice salad for dinner and enjoyed relaxing.

All in all a great day.
