FRIDAY's FAVE FIVE

Actually, I didn't want to do anything and rest from the weekend, but if I didn't want to starve to death I had to fill the fridge. Which I then did in the afternoon. Now I have my ready-made meals for at least 2 weeks. There is so much choice in this shop, so that I can eat every day a dish from another country. 

That was the first day of the week. 

The next day was Scrabble and for the first time in a long time I won. We drove home a bit earlier, I don't see well when it's dark and I can't find my glasses with which are made especially for the night, like sunglasses for the sun ! So I am not dazzled by the headlights.

With two friends we wanted to visit Mr G, and arrived in the middle of Halloween festivities of the Home ! There were a lot of witches and soft sweets and biscuits The entertainer a young woman read horror stories to the oldies and one lady told her not to complain if all residence screem for help because they all make nightmares.

It was really very nice to see that everybody had a lot of fun except two who slept peacefully without nightmares,  but soft snoring ! I was a bit surprised Halloween was never very much celebrated or not known at all, but times change ! For many of them it was the first time !

Unfortunately Mr. G. didn't feel well and preferred to sleep and stay in his room. I just brought him his laundry and water bottles and then  let him sleep.

This week we didn't go to a restaurant, because we were all not well and one has gone to France to visit her mother who is in a home. She is one of those people who absolutely do not want to be vaccinated. So she has to do a PCR (?) Test to get over the border, cannot go to a restaurant or hotel and has to do a second test to see her mother. 

At the beginning we laughed, but now we find it childish and nobody can really understand her. One day she will probably be vaccinated after all. More and more there is a discussion about making vaccination mandatory. 

Somehow the shadow of the coronavirus still hangs over everything. From November 1st we have to show our "safety ticket" if we want to go in a restaurant, cinema etc. like they do already in France. 

All of this and Mr. G's health condition doesn't exactly lift my mood, luckily I can take a variety of autumn pictures out of my living room window.

 It changes every day !

The only one who is always happy is cat Rosie who sleeps the whole day and flies through the apartment during night and plays and puts rugs in other places, while I have to sleep with earplugs. But that doesn't bother me.
