We almost made it
All day we
discussed our plans for dinner and the book club tonight. We went through a
list of possible dinner options and decided on the Shrimp and Vegetables at
China Grill. It is right on the way to the book club and easy access with
parking at the front door. So we headed out early at 5:30pm to give us plenty
of time to relax.
Not a quarter of
a mile from the house a woman in a red Dodge Charger pulled out almost hitting
me. I had to smash the brakes and float into the next lane watching the car to my
right brake back too. We went about 30 degrees sideway even though we were only
driving at the posted 40mph. But no one got hit. We drove on giving the offending
woman dirty looks. But Mom was grasping her stomach. She was in pain and her
heart was beating fast. Her anxiety level was pretty bad. I thought a cup of
tea and time to unwind would get her under control. But she just got worse and
we had to pack dinner to go and head home. Another missed book club meeting.
Mom is resting on
the sofa watching her Funniest Home Videos always a stress reliever for her.
