MONDAY

As a postscript to the last entry - I was talking to Pattisue today and she knew exactly what part of Dallas I was talking about. She said the AAA, the local motoring organisation here, gives it members who ask for it a detailed plan of the interstate in every major city, showing the lanes, and which lane to take for which exit.  So if something like that is deemed useful maybe I am not such a stupid old woman for being in the wrong lane.

I have spent the day totally resting, I don't remember when I last felt so tired.  Every muscle and fibre ached, and my toes were terribly painful, I have been taking something for pain relief but wouldn't while I was driving.   I think I will look around for a podiatrist, which is what they call a foot doctor here.

I do feel a lot better for a day's bed rest (more or less, with trips to the computer).   I spent half the evening trying to decide if I wanted to rustle up something to eat, but I jumped in the car instead and got a medium rare steak from the Golden Galleon, which I've just eaten.  So now I'll go back to bed and read.
