It was a restful day for us, but the keeper had to get up very early, way earlier than she usually rises. We were nervous because we thought this meant that she was leaving us or that we were going on a trip or to the vet. We sat with saucer eyes on the bed while she rushed around. She finally told us that she was taking her friend W to the hospital for day surgery. and she was back by noon. She told us that if nothing else, seeing the harvest moon hanging over Elliott Bay and the city before it set, was worth the worry. But she had a lovely morning....watching the city wake up, breakfast a the Rhododendron, Mass at the Cathedral, reading in the sun at the reflection pool at SU. shopping at Elliott Bay for an Authors game and journals, and walking all over the hill. W's surgery went well, and they were back by lunch. We spent the the rest of the day lounging in the back yard. Cecil didn't wander and slept and slept in one of the big chairs. He's settling in nicely. We are chasing each other around the house now. I ate a bug and got sick. The keeper made me poached chicken. Thank God, Cecil doesn't like it. So it's all mine.
