Friday.
Mom called the clinic and then organized with Nagite that Friday would be the best time to go see her eye doctor. So we left this morning at 7:30am to get there by 8ish. Mom waited til last minute to call, so there were no appointments available til November and we were going to the walk-in service between 8am-12pm.
Sounds good, except when we get there, they tell us that Fridays are appt. only days, and today the doctor is in Riga. Oh well. At least, we got a renewed prescription for her medicine.
We went to a billion stores to go food shopping, and then to a dingy corner store for stale cakes and coffee.
Now, it's around 3pm and I'm either going for a bike ride, or if it's too windy, for a run. Uz redzēšanos!
Word...........................acu ārsts = eye doctor
Dish.............................mom had stale lemon cake, I had a very greasy cheese fried dough thing - mīklā cepts siers, Nāgite had pizza (pica) and stale chocolate cake.
Highlight.......................sunrise was pretty and the whole day was nice and sunny
Lowlight........................wrong day!
Random observations.........................mom is a big pain in the BEE-HIND sometimes but I love her so very much.

hi
ReplyDeletejenn we always knew mom was a big pain in the debenes and like you said we love her anyway.
i went for an hour walk in the rain and i wore the hat and scarf that you made.everyday i wear one of your scarfs so dont think they are sitting in a drawer collecting dust.i LOVE all of them and i always get compliments. the hat is purple blue white and green and i could always use another one if you run out of things to knit for yourself.
are any of your friends coming for a visit?
thanks mom, for the complement. kristen sounds vaguely interested - you should talk to her... tell her it's not really that bad here in the winter (right?!)
