It was so taxing yesterday that I slept in and forewent the walk for today. Vanessa did come by last evening and we did another message to Expedia to cancel and return my money because I had to refund her her cash... What a terrible day it was stressing over that ridiculous flight... My probbably accurate guess is that Expedia had skeleton support staff only over the holidays and expected travelers to wait 48-72 hours for any real responses...
The good result of the big rain (the lake has already disappeared) is that the trees and flowers gots a good drink and the yard is blooming everywhere. Such a variety of gorgeous flowers. I am anxious to see the Aloe in bloom soon.
I decided to make smoked bacon and sunnyside-up eggs, along with the Bimbo Artisano bread, and the meal was heaven.... Cristina did not eat one of the bread that I had prepared her, so I added a mixture of peanut butter and corn syrup (bought in Canada) and had a sweet dessert.
Cristina went into Tulua again with her friend Angela.
I played a little more with the new microscope and will get better at the focusing. I am toying with the idea of using it outside, but it is run by USB, so I would need to use the laptop... Hmmm... Flower petals should be interesting???
I have been binging on the Junior Hockey Championships games and am so disappointed in Canada's first game. I would have pulled the goalie after the first 3 goals... They are not out of the hunt yet, but need to find a better game plan. Any hockey afficionado will note the lack of any backdoor tip-ins.... Nuff said.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.
