We woke up to the alarm clock's blasting this morning. After lazing around for about 10 minutes we got up. We had our breakfast, cleared up the dishes, and read the morning paper. I had started re-reading one of Patricia Briggs' books, and I spent the rest of the morning on that. Karen had invited us and Al to lunch, so we went to her house. It was a very nice lunch, and she told us about their trip to areas around Greece. I thought it was the islands, but she said she wanted someday to go back and see the islands. Instead it was the little countries around there, and done by boat along canals. After lunch we all went outside to enjoy the beautiful yard and landscape. At home again we rested a while, and I read again and Chris worked at the computer, making notes to take to Dr. Donahoe tomorrow.
