still fighting the cold

Monday is park meeting day. I often play golf but didn’t today. We have volunteered to sell tickets to the Luau in our park. To fit the occasion, I wore my jams and Hawaiian shirt I bought in 1985. Needless to say, it was offensively small. Fortunately, I was able to sit still while selling tickets. Evelyn received many complaints and harassments about my attire. We came home and ate our lunch very early. We finished the leftover meatballs from yesterday by 10:30. Then Evelyn lay down. She has kept the cold at bay by resting. I rode my bike to the pharmacy to get some medicine and came back to load our medicine containers for the week. Evelyn wakened and went to get a permanent. I tried to work a while but finally had to take a nap myself. I am not completely well either. She came home and I made her lie down again while I chopped onion and shaved zucchini squash and yellow pepper. I used a mandolin and sliced myself a bit too. I asked Tom if he could come to work on the closet, but he had friends visiting and went to dinner with them. He thinks he might come tomorrow at 9:30. We took a walk after our supper of pizza still left from NYE. Evelyn loaded the spinach pizza with zucchini, onion and more cheese. She didn’t like it but I thought it was OK. It really didn’t retain its pizza flavor so I added a lot of crushed red pepper. As we walked, we called Stacy since she had not called back yesterday on her birthday. We learned the dates of the spring break at the schools and will begin to make plans for a family trip to Alabama in April.
