Recovery Day #22!

Today is a holiday here – Colombian Independence Day. And it’s also International Chess Day.

Last night I went to bed at 10pm, fell asleep quickly, woke up at 1:15, and changed my AD. I worked some on the computer, watched a little of The Handmaid’s Tale and returned to bed at 2:15. A dog barking woke me too early, but I fell back asleep finally waking/getting up at 7:30.

Teresa spilled some coffee on the recliner while talking to a girlfriend on her cellphone. She washed/rinsed it with a dishcloth then set up the fan to speed up the drying process.

I had a nap after breakfast.

Today we hit a high of 88 degrees.

I had a nap after lunch.

It wasn’t until mid afternoon when I changed out of my robe and into my pajamas.

I spent the bulk of the day watching episodes of The Handmaid’s Tale while camped out on the recliner.

I beat Teresa in parcheesi 4 games to 1.

Teresa reminded me I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, but she couldn’t remember what time. I told her she told me it was at 3pm.

For supper I had corn on the cob, the best I’ve had here but still not as good as the sweet corn in the States.

Teresa watched the 2-hour final to her Desafio program.
