It was really tough for me getting out of bed Saturday morning 04/20. I was a hurtin' unit after just that mild evening out. I don't know, but I think I rolled out of bed around 10:00am or something like that. And I was still not moving around very well.

I had to take a few short naps through the late morning and early afternoon before I could get up enough steam to go out with Sue to do the shopping for the dinner party that we were having that evening for Sue's mom, brother Alan, and Alan's wife Joann who drove down from Tamworth, NH.

Fortunately, I had picked a simple Chicken Piccata over parsley boiled egg noodles and a side of stir fried green beans in garlic, shallots, and herbs. I was moving pretty slowly doing my food prep and did get it all quite done before they arrived. But that was fine. I finished up and was able to take a short break to chat with everyone.

But shortly after we ate, chatted for a short time, and had a mango cream desert that Sue had made, I started to go downhill really fast. Everyone knew I was hurting, and so they headed out around 8:30pm. Sue and I watched a couple of short recorded episodes of HGTV House Hunters, and then went to bed.
