We had our walk and then got ready for the movers--we have a "new" piano! Ray consulted every step of the way. They brought it in the front door, but couldn't get it around the corner into the Ocean Room. In order to bring it in the outside door from the West Deck, Ray had to get his chainsaw and cut a stump that was blocking the truck's access. Meanwhile, the two men took the piano back to the truck and then drove around the garden and came in that way. No problem! I played a little easy Christmas music and Ray sang along. Elisa was excited when she got home and spent several hours there, while talking to a friend in Germany.
My Dad came in the afternoon and we spent some time outdoors. I did some weeding.
We had an early supper (refried beans, tortillas, a little garden lettuce), because Elisa had to be at school at 5:30. Her "exam" for Drama Class was a play. She and another student were directors.
Ray and I went to Catherine Kleiner's house to sing Christmas carols with some of our choir mates. It was fun. Then we went to see the play. It was pretty funny, although many of the actors had never been on stage before. It was about speed dating. One of the characters kept talking on her phone while she was on a date. One pretended he could speak other languages...dicaprio...gesundheit...
I was really sleepy and went to bed when we got home. We stopped on our way and picked up some eggs, so I could make muffins this morning for Elisa to take to school. Then I kept waking up all night, maybe because I knew I had to get up early and bake them: 2:30, 3:15, 5:15...then finally 6:30.
