TGIF

Sorry I didn’t post yesterday but there was nothing exciting or positive to say. “Cool Cat” is not going as smoothly as I would like right now. Filippo is pushing all my buttons so please pray that I continue to have patience (I’m running out, especially after he bit me).

Today was a great day. In the morning I walked downtown just to get out of the house. Today was the first day of sunshine in a week. I went to an Interior Design firm and looked at their showroom. They have some amazing things but aren’t very friendly. They said good morning but didn’t ask me if I needed anything (this could be because I look like I’m 18 and can’t afford anything in the store….well that is true….I felt a little like that scene in Pretty Woman. I spent the rest of the time walking in Carlos Ablerto Square and window shopping….the clothes here are so amazing and the window displays are very interesting to say the least. I also visited my favorite store, Blockbuster. I picked up some movies for my off time this weekend. For lunch I fixed a chicken fillet with fresh rosemary and gnocchi with a pesto sauce. I have to say it wasn’t half bad; I just might be able to cook when I get back.

At two I took a nap with Ruggie and then played until Pat and Fil got home from his last day of school. He is now out for the summer and I am kinda dreating this but his sports camp starts in two weeks. At 7 we all went to a track meet. It was an international meeting in an old stadium. Pat fixed sandwiches and we ate outside under the stars. The weather was perfect so it was hard to believe I was at a meet because there was no wind or snow. Several world records were broken, so that was neat to witness. An Italian woman high jumped 6’6” and a guy from Africa (I think) jumped 7’5” AMAZING!! At the end of the meet there was a fireworks show that reviled Simpson/Hoover displays. It was really a good performance set to opera. So happy early Fourth of July.
As for the weekend I half to work in the morning and then I think I’m going with my friends from Ghana somewhere.

PS I need your help. If anyone has any simple receipts (that don’t have two many ingredients) I would love to make the family something “America”, also if anyone has any digitals pictures of Booker, Texas, or Cowboys could you please email them to me at lindsey32@gmail.com Grazie Mille
