28 July 2012

Today was quite a slow day for us. I got up early and took a fairly long walk around town. I went on Ein Akev to Ein Mor and then down to Sheshet HaYamim, which I followed across the bridge over the wash, past the high school, and all the way to Argaman. There, I turned left and went up Argaman all the way to Harim, where I turned left and headed home the usual way. I went past the gym without stopping, but I did stop to do stretches in the park beside the big traffic circle (where highway 12 begins and heads out of town). Between Ein Mor and the green strip, I stop to pet and spend some time with one of my favorite faithful friends, Fluffy, the big yellow-orange cat who is almost always relaxing in that area early in the morning. He walked with me over to the edge of the green strip.

We ate lunch at Pastory, an Italian restaurant in the hotels area. Both of us had Fettucine Verdura. The sauce is particularly nice, with artichoke hearts and asparagus that is cooked just right.

This afternoon, I added new posts to my blog about Israel and her neighbors (click here to read) and to my mom's blog, posting a letter she wrote on June 7, 1951 (click here to read it).

Other than those things, I tried to spend as much time as I could sitting in my comfortable IKEA chair with my feet up on a pillow on the matching foot rest. My left foot is still somewhat swollen from being turned Thursday morning (and yesterday's long drive in the car probably didn't help much -- too much sitting withOUT the foot being up). It generally does NOT hurt, though, unless I try to bend it too far.
