her frail body

After work this morning, I drove over to my parents' place. I had gone there for a number of reasons, but the most important one was to see my grandma. She was going to be with them there for the week and I can't remember the last time that I saw her.

She was sleepy, but when she was alert she was willing to talk and that was enough for me.

My second reason for visiting was to spend some time in the pool and I did. It was only for an hour or so, but once again that was enough. For that brief amount of time, it felt like summer to me. There were no worries as clouds raced across the sky above me and I watched the shadow of my body ripple beneath me on the floor of the pool. Simple and relaxing is what I wanted and is what I got.

After a supper of spaghetti, I was back home and in bed by seven thirty. I didn't want to stay awake for thirty two hours like I did last week.
