Busy Days Curb Reading
Yesterday was one of those really busy days for me. After I got the basic routine cleared away, I painted the archway trellis, where the trumpet vine didn't interfere with the painting. (This morning when I filled the bird feeder again, I noticed that I missed a spot! However, it doesn't show from a distance.)
Yesterday was my company day, so I spent the afternoon taking care of meal preparation and some in the house chores.
In the evening I had to go to our final choir practice for the season. The choir presents a program of music for their last Sunday of the season. I knew it should take a little extra time to get final plans completed but I wasn't prepared for it to take two hours. I wanted to get back home and relax. I hoped to read several chapters in my current book, but it turned out that I was too tired and sleepy. I fell asleep on the couch.
I'm getting closer to the end of the book, and I'm caught up in the developments now, except that I can't remember who Claire is and how she fits into Holly's circle of friends and acquaintences. I may have to look back a few chapters and see who Claire is before I go on.
Claire is a guest in Judith's home, as is Holly. They were invited for a dinner party. But it has become apparent that Judith really dislikes Claire intensely, so much so that when Claire starts to pet Judith's aging dog, Judith tells her with measured self control, "I need you to get your hands off my dog." --Tension is surely building up! I gotta find out why Judith dislikes Claire!
