Day Nine: A rainy day in Georgia
Our favorite patient took her longest nap yet today as the rain continued to fall for the second straight day (trust me, we need all the rain we can get). She dosed off in the recyliner somewhere around 5:30 p.m. and did not wake up until around 8 p.m. Fact is, her puppy did the same thing across the room on the dog's couch.
Today, she had three visitors. Darryl M stopped by in the morning and the two of the J-Five (Bego and Christy) dropped by for afternoon visit. All the visitors brought something. Darryl M brought some food and the J-5 crew brought a basket of goodies. Christy even tried to play with Chloe (the dog), but for some reason she wasn't in the mood.
Actually, our patient made lunch today. One of her famous Lenten staples (no pun intended) macaroni and cheese with tuna. As always, it was yummy.
All in all, it was pretty peaceful day without much fanfare. The kind you need when you're recovering from surgery.
As for the questions in the comments on yesterday's entry, I have no idea why the time on this blog is messed up. I usually post somewhere between 11 p.m. and midnight. Yesterday's post said it was at 9:47 p.m., so it was about two hours off. I have tried to fix it. Let's see how it goes.
Also, Maria J is coordinating the food or you can just give us a call. Any submissions would be more than welcome, especially next week when I actually have to go and work from my office.
The rain was also beneficial in another way since today's local soccer games got cancelled, and I got to stay with our favorite patient instead of having to work. Anna M. was going to come stay with her while I was gone. I still worked, but it was far better to be here then out somewhere in the rain.
Later in the evening, we got to watch one of all-time favorite movies, Uncle Buck.
Well, in the immortal words of Scarlet O'Hara, tomorrow is another day.

February 23, 2008 at 4:50 PMHey Jeff, the default timestamp is not EST. You can manually change the time on each post by going into the post options in the "new post" window, but it's just easier to change the default. Go into "settings" and then "format" and change the time stamp to EST.
Easy peasy. Once you know.
