For us this a day trip. We enjoy the drive. This time, M. drove. I usually drive, either her car or mine. But, my knees have really been hurting me. The last ten days, or so, I have been waking up around 4:30 a.m. because the right one is hurting so much. The really strange thing, is that they only hurt in the day time when I'm going down a fight of stars. But, laying in bed . . . they hurt. I will have to mention this to the doctor the next time I see him, which will be soon.
We enjoyed ourselves immensely. It was just like old times, when we had more of the same days off. M talked about work, the boy interest, how she feels about starting over. I listened and asked questions. It looks like the boy interest isn't going to work out. On the other hand, M. is losing weight (23 pounds so far!) and is taking better care of herself. She no longer just puts on her clothes on and wraps her hair up in a bun and goes off to work. Nope, now it's long hair with streaks, and makeup and nice clothes. She looks quite sexy, and hopefully she will notice the men that have all along been looking at her! Maybe, they will become more bold and talk to her for once! She's going to attract more attention, like she did before, when strange men would come up to her and pick her up and twirl her. She rather scared of that. She no longer has a Dad and two brothers hovering around, protecting her. I really understand that. When I got down to 132 pounds, all sorts of men approached me. Some of them really seemed to think I was some kind of living doll for them to play with. Which is one of the reasons I now weight 200 pounds. I like being invisible. But, I'm going to have to take it off, if only for my knees, ankles and feet. AND KEEP IT OFF. Maybe, now that I'm 50, men won't notice me anymore. That would be a good thing.
