Normally, I would consider getting up at 6am on a Saturday morning the beginning of wrong on many levels. However, we were invited to Delicious Irony's birthday brunch. Programmed the address into the GPS, and headed out. Funnily enough, the address we were supplied has two locations, depending on whether you're in Stirling/Inglewood, or or Vincent/Inglewood. We managed to find the correct one, after going to the 'wrong' one the first time.
The Brunch was wonderful. Good company, good food, music, and great atmosphere. I got some good photographs of the guests and the musicians, too. Bought a new basil and thyme plant. The outing was something aikidomayland needed. I know, and fully understand, he is still in mourning, and will be for quite some time, but he needed to get out and stop vegetating.
It was with some sadness what we had to say our farewells and head off for our weekly pillaging.
Meegan and Daggles came by this afternoon. Was asked if I would like to go visit Sue (Meegans' mother) and they hadn't even finished the question when I said yes. Sue has had a very rough time, the past few months. A melanoma was found on her leg, and it needed to be removed. The skin graft over the surgical area didn't take, the surgical staples ripped out and the area became infected. It seemed no antibiotic would work, so she was readmitted to the hospital for surgical removal of the infection and the surrounding tissues, leaving an even larger surgical wound. Another skin graft was performed, and this one seems to be healing properly.
Extremely tired now, either from full day of activity, or early rising. Hobsons' choice on that one.
