Our family friends, Perry and his granddaughter arrived from southern California in the evening. They were driving all day long while I was taking a nap. Then we met them for dinner and I had a great appetite---a plate of spicy enchiladas. It was unfortunate that I just realized that I can no longer have any spicy foods due to the mouth sores. I also ordered a virgin pina colada even though how bad I wanted tequila in my drink but I just took a pain pill prior to the dinner. It was really really nice that we got to get out of the house and have a good dinner together. Again it was unfortunate that I forgot to take my other medications because I didn’t think that we would be gone more than four hours. It was a lesson I learned and that I was coughing so hard. When we got home, I went to sleep early for I needed a lot of rest for tomorrow’s day event. The Gravenstein Apple Fair has been something that we all looked forward to going for weeks.
