Yesterday was quite hot - up to 86 degrees. When we woke up this morning at 8:30 a.m., it was 58 degrees! The weatherman says this is winter's last gasp. It would be a pleasant 67 now, except that the wind just won't stop blowing! I thought it was March that was supposed to be the windy month, not April!
Ed has his CAT scan yesterday and he took some strawberries to one of the best nurses he's had, Shawna. I told her she should give a workshop to fellow cancer nurses. All of them are pleasant but what the patient and caregiver want most to know about is details about the particular cancer the person has. Shawna explained test results and what they meant, as well as giving Ed some tips - such as the importance of keeping hydrated. (Typical man - he'll listen when someone else besides his wife tells him something.)
While in the waiting room, he saw an ad in the paper for an Italian market. So, we went about 5 miles further south in Cape Coral and had lunch at Paesano's - La Trattoria Al Fresco outdoor cafe. I had a huge Cobb salad and Ed had the special - a sampler of Italian foods. We both had enough left for supper.
So far today, Ed's been having a "Pepper Day" - he napped on the couch, went to the pool to lay out (but it got too windy), napped on the "patio" by the RV, and now he's napping here on the sofa again. That's just what Pepper does - sleeps here, there, and yonder throughout the day.
Instead of around the RV park, I did my walk
across the street to the Shell Factory to mail Easter cards to Mother. While there, I looked around the huge store again. Oh, how fascinating shells are!!!....expensive, too! The big Tritan's trumpet shell I got while scuba diving is worth at least $50!
Our big date today is to take advantage of the special deal at Applebee's - 40% off your food bill on Monday - Thursday between 2 & 4 p.m. Then, we're going to see Julia Roberts' movie, "Duplicity."
