Weekly Inventory 5/29/2016

Fri 5/20: Cook nice dinner for Larry--chicken and noodles. Nice long dinner. Nice long walk. Watched the 60s documentary.

Sat. 5/21: Worked in my yard. Planted cherry trees! Went running with Larry. Went to Eagle Creek at sunset for a hike and some "mesmerization." I like my new word. Coming home from sunset, it was a blue moon--second full moon of the month--and it was CORAL! It was a coral moon! We sat in a field to behold! Drove by the old train station in New Augusta--someone put a scary ass mannequin woman in the window who leers out from behind the curtains, and it's scary man!

Sun. 5/22: Packed a cooler and went hiking at Shades with Larry. Hiked a trail that was "closed," and was offered a marvelous waterfall in return!

Mon. 5/23: New running shoes arrived! Went running. Tree frog on my front porch! Tried on pants from 2006--my skinniest pants ever. Got them on and zipped and buttoned. Looked in mirror! Looked like a "People of Wal-Mart" person! hahaha!. Planted yellow tomatoes, jalepenos, and eggplant. The full moon was GREEN! Watched a good movie: "Infinitely Polar Bear." 

Tue. 5/24: New shoes. Went running. Andre came over for a visit.

Thur. 5/26: Plumbing finally fixed!

Fri. 5/27: Began welcoming guests to my hostel--six guests for the 100th running of the Indy 500! Went to Larry's for the weekend. Larry made lovely meal--salmon grilled on cedar planks, rice, and broccoli. Nice evening walk through nature trails of his neighborhood. Late shopping trip for upcoming dinner party.

Sun. 5/29: Hosted Ralf & Jim at Larry's house. Found his mother's china and silver and set a beautiful table. Larry cut roses from his garden to dress the table. Fabulous meal, too!
