So...It has been a busy week. I was in Delft last weekend. Did you see the pictures? I was overwhelmed by all the blue. I didn't buy a thing. But I had a really good time sight seeing and a good meal with a cooking lesson thrown in. On Tuesday, Mom arrived- yeah!!! We took the scenic route home and she was exhauted but she did great!!! Wednesday morning on my way to work, a tank was coming down the street in the other direction. Too bad I was busy steering and couldn't take a picture. It isn't every day an amoured vehicle is part of my commute- how about yours? Mom brought me thoughtful little things from home ( thanks Lisa!). Great moisturizer I use twice a day, perfume, and a rain poncho. On Wednesday night, it began to rain on my way home. So, I pulled off and slipped on my clear plastic rain poncho. Well, the rain poured down and the wind kicked up. The hood would not stay on my head. A friend told me today she saw me riding home with the poncho billowing around me. The parts it covered stayed dry and I was grateful. But I did have to laugh. There is very little chance of actually staying dry here. Might as well embrace it. Welcome to the Netherlands!!! And, at mid 60's F, I am so grateful! I know you guys are suffering at home. I hope it breaks soon.Maybe it helps to hear about my near drowning in the rain :).
Tonight, Mom and I took our first bike ride after dinner. It was fun. Mom is feeling more mobile and she handled things like a pro. It is fun for me to have her here. It will be nice too, that we can take little rides together and see a little more of the town. It is nice to come home and share making dinner and puttering around.Loving someone really does make a difference, doesn't it? In everything we do, I want us to find joy. Most nights, we don't really know exactly what it is we are eating. But hey- we got it in a grocery store. How bad can it be?
We are headed to bed. Tomorrow will be a big day. We are going to Cologne, Germany for the day. We are both tickled pink. I will have pics to post and stories to tell. I'll get a pic of mom biking early next week. I plan to eat, drink and be a tourist. We'll be home tomorrow night.
Oh, my bag is packed, I'm ready to go.....
