Wednesday

Nice day out.  Did some knitting and was getting ready to go run when Ana and Wally came over.  Mom really enjoyed herself with the guests.  I think even she was getting bored these past few days.  She and Ana were yelling at each other so loud that Wally couldn't get a word in edgewise.  She and I just looked at each other and laughed.  Then, Nagite came in and took one look at who was there, and left again.  I left with her to go on my run.

Word..............................blēdīgs = crooked (as in mom's neighbor, Marija's grandchild, and all Russians)  Except, mom says it like... blēž and really draws out the žžžž at the end.  It's funny.
Dish...............................Ana made a fatty ham sandwich with raw garlic and rye bread.  Then, she shoved more raw garlic into the pierogs (mom calls them vareņiki) 
Highlight........................watching mom get all worked up. 
Lowlight.........................evilly staring at the Monster Neighbor as I was walking home from my run and cut through the back to get to mom's house.

Random Observation.................I think our hints are sinking in. The past two days, mom mentioned getting her foot looked at, and this morning asked Domino if he wanted to live in the US again.  It still might take her another 8 years to make up her mind, but she sure as hell will be making it up on her own!
