Nothing special happened this week, besides one resident who walks a lot fell on the grass was white like a blanket but wanted to continue to play. The nurse gave her a tranquilizer and after a short time she was normal again, the girl is 98 !
I have to laugh about myself when I mention the age of my cohabitants or even my age, I had never thought about this. What I notice is that all the once in their 80 and 90 are behaving like teenager, laugh a lot and tell stories of their youth.
We had very nice weather so it was perfect when my son came visiting me with the whole family on their way back from France where they spent their holidays, stopped 3 days in Paris and then half a day here. Unfortunately the photographers of the family (my son and I) forgot to take pictures so I only have a few. We pic nicked on our terrace, instead of going to a restaurant or eating in our restaurant. He bought delicious salmon salads with all kind of vegetables, rice or couscous, the drinks I had in my fridge and the cutlery was given to him by the girl in the kitchen. Leia the dog was happy, it is the only place where she can ran around as the park is so big and she cannot get out.
She likes to say hello to everybody and everybody is happy to have the attention of a friendly dog.
My DIL and I continue to shrink, "little" Toby has nearly reached the height of his father (2m) and they were the attraction of the whole residence !
Father and son (14)
Rosie became a bit stiff to jump on the sofa !
Your son is so handsome and Toby will be breaking hearts soon, if not already. How nice to have their company and good for Leia to have the opportunity to stretch her legs and greet people.
ReplyDeleteThat's Toby's problem, he looks older but girls are not yet of any interest to him ! lol !
DeleteThose gloves are super cool! What a great father/son photo. Sounds like a heavenly day!
ReplyDeleteHow fun that your son and his family could come! I can’t believe how grown-up Toby looks.
ReplyDeleteI have some fingerless gloves I use in the winter. My hands get cold typing, and the gloves help a lot.
The cycling gloves are probably a good and practical gift. Rosie will now have to nag you to lift her onto the sofa.
ReplyDeleteI find lately that almost all teenagers are taller than me, but I haven't shrunk at all. I hope I can still walk and play games at 98.
ReplyDeleteThat's true that's why I think that I shrink ! Of course I still have the same size as I had with 16 !
