All's well on the Western Front!

The day has dawned, bright and sunny and V is so much better. She is taking pain killers which are keeping the pain at bay. Last night we watched Secretariat. What a great movie! If you haven't seen it, buy it or rent it.



The other movie is A Walk in the Clouds. Haven't watched it yet, but will do tonight.



 So, I am heading back to Escondido RV Resort and maybe will go for a bike ride, or go to the beach. Or not. Isn't it great that we can decide on the spur of the moment what we want to do?

I've left Michael!

To stay overnight at V's home. She is in a lot of pain from her Christmas Day fall and could not get out of bed this morning. The doc thinks it is a deep tissue injury with a hematoma which has burst. The bruising, which was not apparent the first few days, now reaches almost up to her waist. So here I am, sleeping in a building for the first time in a long while. She has been advised to take it easy with a minimal amount of walking. So no adventures this week. Hopefully next week she will be well enough to do something.

Meanwhile I have downloaded a couple of books for her to read on her new Kindle Touch. One of them is called Motohuma the Firehead by Jennifer Munro. It is the story of a girl born and raised in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe (where I was born and raised) whose family has a big secret. Quite an enjoyable read. The other one is The Peachkeeper.


Bought roast chicken and salad for dinner and two videos to watch, Secretariat and some Keanu Reeves movie. C'est la vie!
