I was feeling well enough yesterday to take a trip to SDiego for lunch at VAM. It was a chance for the volunteers to get together and visit. They all work alone at the desk and never have any time to visit. I took my friend Bette Bradley who has been needed an outing. We enjoyed ourselves even though it was very low key. By the time I arrived home, picking up KoKo at the sitter's at 5pm, I was exhausted. I took a nap, ate some dinner and then went to bed - not waking up until 8am! I guess KoKo had a busy day also because he slept all that time too. Anyway, I still have a bit of a cough at times, but not so deep or so painful, so I guess I'm on my way to being well again. Fingers crossed, eh?
Since I didn't post last night I am giving you my Monday Browsing today.
