I spent Saturday night at Rick’s house in Elk Grove. We were going to go out to a seafood restaurant he’s been wanting to check out, but he hurt his arm climbing in the attic to affix the electric cord of the attic fan to a stud, and he has a touch of a cold, so we decided to stay in and eat some shrimp he marinated in lime juice and sauteed in butter. yum.
I have been spending a night or two a week with him since we separated. We’ll never be out of each other’s lives completely, I reckon, and that’s fine with me. I’ve managed to stay friends with each of my former lovers, to some degree or another.
Sunday, I went over to Chuck and Gordon’s home for a visit with Gordo and Joan, his mother, who has been recently discharged from the hospital with some sort of pneumonia. She looked good, was pretty feisty, and ate well. Well, she’s another person to add to my prayer list.
Sunday evening, I cut off my curly locks. I’m down to the half-inch tapering down to one-eighth inch look I maintained while in the Navy. I’ll post a picture or two soon.
