Tuesday




Tuesday

Sleep long. . . Up twice to pee. We got to turn our clocks back and gained an hour. 

As much as I coughed in the night, and had a bloody nose at 5 am, i dressed quickly and felt rested and fit as a fiddle! Our bath has a tub!




Breakfast in the dining room. Garden frittata, grapefruit juice and turkey bacon. Dan says 'He loves my spirit!'


In cubbie 3424 we plan our day:

10:15 Kitchen tour

Then Dan needs a nap. . . 

I am reading Mrs Peregrine Home for Peculiar Children. Se try the lap thing but it 36mph windy. So we settle off our 3rd floor room onto the aft 'lanai'. Relaxing on bleached teak lawn recliners reading and dozing, sheltered but getting sun fortified.

Laps: exercise is overrated". Todays slogan


At 12:36 Dan nods to me. . . Salad bar? Yes please we each eat a bowl and share a delicious ziti.


 Ambling to the pool to continue our sleepy bear impersonation.


Happy hour

The Bombay Sapphire martinis

Early Dinner- pineapple

Arugula salad

Tenderloin and 2 shrimps

With spinach

Chocolate souffle!

Stuffed! We usually eat later. . . 



A Dogs Purpose movie was so good! A tear jerker for sure. 

Then a selfie because the night is so blue, and another lap around the ship.

Saturday

Dan took Pilgrim to Guide Dogs for the Blind after we went to yoga and took a walk. My heart is being ripped out. Intentionally, Dan drops me off at DejaVu to shop. I spend $18.00 on. Two cocktail dresses, sunglasses and two pr of socks. Walking home my heart still greives. . .  Dan and I pack, plant tomatoes and the pink striped clematis and nasturtiums. Then I dusted and watered plants and prepped for dinner, its hash. Dan went to Freddys to but Mark West Pinot Noir for our cruise wine. I called tom and will write a check before we go.

Sunday

We slept deeply, only a minor wakeful period at three, coughing hoarsely. I awake at 8, shower and rouse Dan. All shades of grey envelop us: sea, waves, sky, fog, awareness of our last 24 hours. We eat the Full English breakfast, sharing banger, and egg. I love the beans and broiled tomato with rasher and egg, a bowl of berries. We walk our mile with the Walk for the Cure participants. We expressed interest but never signed up. The walk was pleasant with nifty fifty tunes.. Dan feels tired enough he wants to nap. In the explorers lounge i read Doig and he slumbers. It is Sunday and the text is John 4:5-42 about the woman at the well. Aside from meditation the narrative by Jan Richardson is rich in water imagery. Blessing of the Well If you stand at the edge of this blessing and call down into it, you will hear your words return to you. (Help!) If you lean in and listen close, you will hear this blessing give the story of your life back to you. ( I will car

Church w Phil Yokers pastor and a meal of beef stew and pumpkin bars to Martha. We drive North. A typical Spring day with showers. We plan to lunch at the Lucky Dragon in Kalama, the line out the door sends aclear message. Sunday We make a pit stop at Subway to satisfy our hunger and we are back on the road with our 60/50 Starbucks coffee! We arrive in Kirkland and check into La Quinta Bellevue. Seattle is so pretty and every green under the rainbow is luminous in the light rain. The rhodies are beginning to bloom! After checking in we drive to Russell and Rosalies home. After an hour they pop the pizzas into the oven. There is also a big salad, bowl of watermelon and chocolate cream pie. We shared a bottle of Sagelands Merlot. Its a fun evening!!  We take our leave at eight. I have become hoarse and am tired. To sleep instantly with the help of a melatonin
