AWWW MONDAY - WEEKEND AUGUST 24

Linking to AWWW MONDAYS 

 

 ******

On Saturday it became very hot approaching 30°C, with a very strong wind which blow us nearly away while we were all sitting on the terrace and had a lot of fun, we laughed a lot and with our coffee we had wafels and everybody had a good appetite.


On Sunday the temperature had dropped again during night and it was rather cold and we couldn't sit outside ! No wonder that you catch a cold easily. One resident had fallen asleep in the sunshine on a bank and her face and decoltĂ© was red like lobster and the skin was burnt ! Of course it hurt a lot, hopefully she will feel better tomorrow. 

This time we had to find synonyms and then we were served a "merveilleux" with our café.

 

We can't say that we are starving here ! Fortunately I haven't put on weight but some others who probably didn't eat anymore alone in their apartments, look far better now.

The star of this afternoon, as so often, was our little Italian  woman, Rina, who always got everything wrong because her hearing aid doesn't work well. The funniest words come out. And every afternoon at four o'clock, she starts telling us that she has 5 children, lives in Waterloo and who can drive her home because it's time to feet them. We have to be careful not to contradict her otherwise she will get really angry. But she has lot of humor and is happy when we laugh at her. Otherwise she is completely normal during the day.

And another week will start tomorrow, my cold has disappeared I only still cough a bit.

  1. 30 degrees is too hot for me. I'm glad you're feeling better. Good company and laughter help.

    1. 30 is too hot for me, but we experience 40 degrees. I guess your castle is not airconditioned?

  4. Funny sight of the swans on the italian beach with tourists! Yes, it might be quite a problem to handle eating quantity and diversity , when in a protected living facility.
