Diary of a country lady.
Dec. 22nd, 2004 10:45 pmWe forgot to turn up the volume on the alarm clock so we ended up sleeping in until past noon. Damn...So we started the day with lunch. Lunch with these people is no minor affair. They say, "Oh it is just a light meal today." The reality is you are plied with a ton of food and then you laze about like a beached whale. We began working on a 1000 piece jig-saw puzzle, heard gossip about various members of the family and drank tea.
Talk about fun. I do believe any stress I had from work is gone.
So far from reality.
Tonight we had a trout tart and salad, then game pie and vegetables. For dessert gooseberry tart and custard. Later on we played rummikub and then watched, "What Not to Wear" though Mr. Jenner's father Dr. Jenner grumbled a bit. He said it is all very silly (which it is) but despite his complaints he watched the whole thing. *snorts* Mr. Jenner's Mother and I had fun making little comments about the clothes of the hosts of the show.
Talk about bucolic living in the country.
The 23rd of December is the birthday of my sister![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lightprincess89. She will be 15. As an early birthday present she got her braces off. Lucky thing. I shall have to figure out the timezones to call at the appropriate hour and wish her happy birthday.
Tomorrow we will eat tons, go on a long walk and be good sports about it. Because that is what you do in the country. "Let's walk up a very very steep hill, nearly die and say what fun it is."
