Saturday, another day of rest

Had a pretty crummy night.  Must have been something I ate or maybe even the coffee I was drinking. I was sick in bed with a horrible case  of gastritis from about 11 pm to 4 a.m.  Miserable.  Now I'm tired but at least those stomach pains have left.  Just feeling a tad "off".  Will probably end up taking a recliner nap before the afternoon is over.

I've got golf playing on tv although I did sit and watch a couple of movies earlier.  The Muppets take Manhattan and Guarding Tess.  Tried out the HuluPlus station on my Roku device as the first week is free and then it's $8 a month.  It's similar to Netflix and Amazon so I'll wait and see if I feel there's enough variety to keep all three.  Last night I watched a movie called The Maid.  It was a Spanish film (with subtitles) filmed in Chile.  Usually, foreign movies aren't my favorite but I've found that if you give them enough time, they're often worth the watch.  This one was 2009 and I enjoyed it a lot.

I had the fan running in the bedroom last night but it never did get too uncomfortable. There's a slight breeze blowing today too, so I'm hoping it continues.  Have decided to spend a little time on ancestry today and begin work again on finding info on my grandfather's siblings.  Otherwise, I'll probably hang out in my recliner and watch movies and do some cross stitch and crochet.

Today is my ex-husband's 70th birthday.  Mary posted a picture she took of him when he came over to visit her last week.

I looked over my old diary notes to see if I could find anything interesting for July 12 but as usual, my diary notes were lame.  I did find a 1982 notation that said: John is 38.  Town Tavern caught on fire.

I forgot to post the picture I took of Ruth yesterday that I took when I visited her on Thursday. I had posted it on FB but I forget that many people don't visit that website.  Anyhow, here she is....

Just looked over my calendar and see that I have nothing noted as far as activities except to drive to Brinnon on Thursday morning to pick up the twins from Mary, who is taking them to Lake Cushman with two of their friends. It's a camping vacation they take every year with Mary & Andy's crowd. Another friend of Mary's is coming from Atlanta with her husband and son to join them.  Should be a good time.

The only other note on my social calendar is our class picnic at Jovags house in Port Ludlow on Aug. 2.  Otherwise, August will be pretty much devoted to doctor appointments, an EKG, surgery, and post-op doctor visit. Oh joy!
