A Slow Thursday!

I was up early and went out for my 10K... albeit, slow... but the weather was quite nice... not blaring hot!

I got back and took a shower and settled on the couch to read. I got four different books... and that was just perfect!

I ate a nice and slow breakfast and read and rested until 3pm, when I finally went out to run a few errands. I was back by 4pm. And the rain started. 

Alan and Isaiah went to the basketball playoff game as our friend's son, Sam, is playing... He was voted the Rookie of the Year! His team has lost two games already... so they needed to win tonight's game. I get too excited at these games, and I also had tutoring! It's our last time as we're taking the summer off.

While tutoring, the flying termites started to come in, so I had to rush out to the living room and turn off the lights. 

After tutoring, I had a delicious dinner: rice noodles with cabbage and hard boiled eggs and chicken!

One thing I forgot to mention was about something that happened yesterday:

On the way back from tutoring, the narrow lane that I was on was extremely congested. This is typical, but not like last night. The cars were backed up and when the lights turned green, nothing moved. Riding a scooter has lots of advantages and one was that I can weave in and out. So, when I got to the intersection, I saw the situation. The cars couldn't move because right in the middle of this lane was an elderly lady with her daughter. They had a cane, an umbrella and a small suitcase with wheels. But this elderly woman could not walk. She was just stopped in the lane and cars could not go by her. A policeman finally came. He attempted to give her a piggy back ride. But she could not hold on. I immediately saw the situation and parked my scooter and went over to help. I lifted her on to his back and stood behind her while the policeman walked her to the sidewalk. The daughter, who was about 55 years old, wheeled the suitcase and held her cane and umbrella. It took the two of us to get to the intersection! When we put her down, the policeman left and I walked to my scooter. I looked at the daughter and gave her a thumbs up and she responded in like. I could tell she was so very appreciative. 

How grateful I felt that Mom was never in that state.
