A Good Day

This was sort of a lazy day because there was no extra housework that needed doing. I lazed around most of the morning and played on the computer, took and made a few phone calls, and tidied up the house a bit.

Nick came over just before noon to cut the grass and I went out for lunch while he was still working. Easy life! By the time I got back home, he was finished and gone and the lawns looked lovely. I got a book and a Diet Pepsi and sat out in the backyard for a while just enjoying the wonders of nature. Like I said, easy life!

Lisa, Anna, and I went to their favorite Vietnamese restaurant for dinner around 6:30 and it was excellent. We drove there in Lisa's new car...I have never heard a quieter car motor in my life. It's a Toyota Camry hybrid and drop dead gorgeous.

We went on to Stoney Creek Dairy for ice cream cones after dinner but found it a little cool sitting outside eating them. Anna and I wouldn't have dared suggest we sit inside Lisa's new car with drippy ice cream cones so we toughed it out outside.

I love having friends of all ages because the conversations often have a different perspective. I identify more with people my own age but the young ones seem to have more to teach me. Lisa and Anna are very respectful but we seem to feel very much at ease with each other. I always enjoy their company.

Next month they're taking me to an Indian restaurant. What fun!
