Today we spent most of the day at home, all of us, including that interloper. It seems the board retreat which the keeper was supposed to attend was cancelled due to low attendance. We were thrilled!
We spent a great deal of time outside. She decided to garden, and later this afternoon after assembling baskets of flowers and piles of weeds, she started wishing that Eloi was still in the US. Eloi is the one who got the yard in shape and who worked nonstop to keep it going. It was therapy for him, because the keeper could never afford a full time gardener, but he had a lot of things to work out, and he needed to keep busy.
Today, after making such a tiny dent in all the work, and not being able to find Jesus to help, she realized she had pulled a back muscle, and was in pain. Then we caught her fantasizing about moving to a condo without a yard. We tried to tell her that we would not like that at all. We doubt she will do it, and we are hoping Jesus will appear back on the scene this week. The lawn is high, the weeds have gone amok. It's a jungle! We all like order here.
