So I asked my grandson if he and his girlfriend (eventual wife, I hope) would like to swim. Sure. They showed up about noon (me still reading the papers and in my jammies), and said they came to take me to lunch.
Such timing. I had just started on a bagel.
I've never turned down an invitation to a meal, and I don't intend to start any time soon. So we went to my favorite place Fresh Choice. Salads galore! I do love salads, by they take so much time to put together. And lettuce spoils before I can use it all. So I keep tomatoes, zucchini and cottage cheese on hand. A little garlic powder and Lawry's seasoned salt add zest.
But I digress. We spent a couple hours at the restaurant, thoroughly enjoying each others' company. I really like G's girlfriend. I hope they get situated financially so they can move into their own place soon. They are presently sharing the house with my daughter and granddaughter. And a bunch of cats.
I think summer is about to hit us with a triple digit whammy. I noted that when I was in SoCal, I managed to miss a couple hot-hot days up here. Not so lucky this time. I'll melt or endure, so I think I'll choose endure--whatever that entails.
Friend ML has started to move into the apartment across the way from me. It will be nice having her nearby. Maybe having her nearby, I can pressure her into being on time. She is most undependable about time. However, she's a nice lady, and I won't hold that against her. Just keep nagging until she finally arranges her time a bit more efficiently. Aaahh! who do I think I'm kidding. She'll be late, and I'll fume, and we'll still go wherever it is we're planning to go.
Ah well, I think I'll go back and finish reading the Sunday paper. Still haven't looked at Forum. Although, I did read the funnies.
Shalom
