Monday, April 7

Up at 6 a.m. to get ready for water aerobics. Still chilly for the walk to the gym, but the pool was warm. Twenty-two of us attended.

Back home afterward, I warmed up with cups of coffee, then got ready for the day. Today, we planned to go to another town about an hour away, so that Hubbie could shop at a home improvement store to use some gift cards to purchase a new sink and faucets for the downstairs bathroom.

After lunch, we headed out. Mother and Sis opted to go along, though Mother and I found little to interest us at the store. Hubbie and Sis, though, perused the garden supply area and found plants to purchase.

We didn't shop anywhere else. But before we headed home, we stopped at a fast food restaurant to enjoy soft serve ice cream and cups of coffee.

Back home, Mother diced leftover baked potatoes and an onion, which I sauteed for supper to have with burritos. Several burritos were already wrapped in foil in the freezer, ready to go in the oven, but Sis put together a few more to make sure we had enough. There was more than plenty...enough for another meal, in fact.

Later, we went to a local movie theater to see "Noah." Mother also went on this excursion, and didn't even sleep through the show. This is a very unusual take on the Bible story. We're not sure how to take it. It seems to be a mix of  Bible story and science fiction, and leaves the audience asking a lot of questions. It's a long movie, about two and a half hours, but it goes by fast, thanks to all the action.

While we were gone, I recorded the championship NCAA basketball game, and we watched it before we went to bed. But by the time it was over, I was plenty ready to hug my pillow. It was a long day.
