My Week

Sunday, Dec. 11, 2011
Angie and Gary came back Saturday night, and Geno arrived on Sunday. Tonight we are having dinner together. I'm serving butternut squash ravioli with my homemade pasta sauce.

Today was Physical Therapy day. I had a 9 a.m. appointment, then came home and worked in the Craft Room for a while.

Today was Movie Tuesday. We saw New Year's Eve, but it wasn't a great movie. Not the worst we've seen, though.

Had a really good lesson on Doc this morning. He did great even though the SDG&E Power Link helicopters (4 of them) were flying around the property for no apparent reason. They weren't bringing or picking up equipment, so I can't imagine why they felt compelled to buzz around like flies.

I had my last Physical Therapy appointment this afternoon. Now I have a home program of exercises that I need to do, probably forever.

Joyce and I met at Cuyamaca to ride since Laguna was too snowy after the storm early this week. The trails were muddy and some of it was slippery, but Doc did great.

I had a doctor appointment this morning in La Jolla. I had to leave at 7:30 a.m. to get there by 9. Dennis also had to go into town for work at the port. Around noon we met up at Grossmont Center to do our Christmas shopping and just spend the day together. After shopping, we went to the movies and saw Hugo. It was different than we expected, but we enjoyed it. After the movie, we had dinner at a Mexican restaurant, then drove our separate cars home. Dennis stopped to buy a Julian boysenberry-apple pie for dessert. I arrive at Mom's about ten minutes before Dennis. When he got there, we all had pie and coffee together--Mom, Angie, Gary, Dennis and me.

Dennis had to go to Calexico this morning; Gary went with him. I used the time to make Russian Teacake cookies for Christmas. Next, I'm going to work on the sock I am knitting for Dennis. Socks are hard. I also have packages to wrap. Sigh.
