WEEKEND 

Saturday I felt so tired, as if I had run around the globe. Unfortunately that was not the case and my entry in the Guinness Book of records has to wait. 

Instead after having tried my first painting since 7 years, I joined the others for coffee. It was perfect outside, not too hot and not too cold, so we stayed there the whole afternoon until the kitchen staff called us for supper ! That was the first time that we were late. 

On Sunday morning I nearly became a criminal, I slept and a new helper woke me up to ask where she should put the tray. Before I exploded, I faked to sleep and fell in sleep again, fortunately. 

When I had my breakfast it was just 9 am so it was perfect and as the sun was shining I thought it will be a nice day. For lunch we had roasted chicken, salad with croquettes, and then ice cream. For starters, there was goat cheese with honey sauce. So far so good. But then one misfortune followed another. 

Suddenly, the window burst open, knocking a vase to the floor, which turned into a puzzle. Luckily, the cleaning lady was there and cleaned everything away. Then my (computer) mouse fell into my glass of beer. I don't know how I managed that, of course it drowned, and I had to bury it in the bin. 

Fortunately it was time to join the others for a ball game. I didn't play I just watched and made photos while a red ball that matched my T-shirt and trousers flew at my head. At least I still have my brain.

Suddenly I heard a terrible scream, Solange my 98 year old friend had fallen despite her walker. Before I arrived, two nurses had already picked her up, but she was in terrible shock, yet she wanted to sit with us. She was as white as a bed sheet and was talking nonsense. Normally, she's completely normal.

And to close the day, we had no Internet and the Television didn't work, which was a catastrophe for all those who wanted to see Putin and Trump, and I wanted to write this post !

Now it's late and I try not to fall in or out of my bed ! Rosie sings already operas because I am late with her supper. Fortunately the walls are more then 200 years old and thick. Nobody can hear my little Witney Houston.
