Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

We did nothing particularly for Easter, as we'd done the egg dyeing and hiding and baskets the day before so the three cousins could all do it together. The eggs were beautiful, but nobody wants to eat them except my husband after I make some into deviled eggs. So yesterday we went to a rose garden with a waterfall and walked around, picked up food from a favorite burger place (my son and I had salads but mt husband had a burger the size of a loaf of bread) and fries and onion rings. It was thrilling to have the later two items. Forbidden treats! Then we flopped around while our grandson played by himself out back, and soon it was time for an easy stir fry dinner, his bath, stories and bedtime. I finished a mystery that was not that good. But I have left a list of 8 books with my favorite bookseller, and they should be here this week, so I can take them on our trip. Having our son and grandson here has been good for us. We watch no TV or DVDs because the TV room is next to where he sleeps. Only Curious George so far. My husband watches basketball on his laptop, and as he's recovered from his team's loss (UConn) he switched to Stanford and was very happy with that exciting game. I've walked with a friend, and read the news a bit on my phone, and am beginnig a book about the housing crisis, but mainly I'm just chill. The calm before the big trip. I've got to pace myself, because after two weeks of a rambunctious 5 year old comes two weeks of a busy 2 year old, then a week of a moody 13 year old. Then back to the adult world most of the time, and since my friends are all vaccinated, we can now do quite a bit more.
