I have my ups and downs in recuperating from being tired. I'm seeing people every day this week, which is a lot for me, even though I like all the people I'll be seeing. Today: meditation and lunch with Dragonfly; usual weekly call with Queenie. Tuesday: dinner with one of the Sparrowhawk's high school friends. Wednesday: lunch with Madame. Thursday: coffee and snacks with a couple the Sparrowhawk was introduced to because they are new in town and the husband has Parkinson's. Friday: Zoom with Deb and the Prussian. And a phone call that I disregarded this afternoon because I didn't want any more phone calls left a message about getting together soon. I'm a hermit! How do I get myself into these things?

We got a text from Deb yesterday morning to say that the Prussian had missed a step on the stairs and fallen, and was going to the ER. As expected, they determined that he had broken his hip and would have to have surgery. He got through that today with flying colors, apparently. A short time ago, we got a call from them to say he was out of recovery and back in his room. He'll be discharged on Wednesday, and then come weeks and weeks of therapy. We're just grateful he's okay.

Dragonfly and I sat in the back yard. It was a really gorgeous day, sunny and warm. It's very peaceful in my back yard. The bees are buzzing in the late flowers. Then we got lunch at an Asian place. They had taken their outdoor tables in, but there were hardly any customers inside, so we went in. I had some very tasty Mongolian beef. It's been a long time since I had Chinese food in a restaurant! I took an order of dumplings home for the Sparrowhawk. I sat in the back yard some more and edited another chapter. Body count in this one: one dead, two doped up with their own drugs. I've never done a graph of the body count in this book. Maybe I should. I went for a walk while the Sparrowhawk was at the gym.
