Going out out

Last night I went out out.

I had been invited for a meal in a friend's house. It was terribly exciting: I even put on mascara.

And we had a lovely time. There were three of us and we chatted and ate and admired and encouraged each other. And the time flew by.

Earlier in the day I'd looked after GrandDaughters1 and 2 for a short period and I was asking them about their friends in school. GrandDaughter1 started to list hers but she ran out of fingers. GrandDaughter2 said, "I'm friends with everyone in my class."

Not to be outdone I said, 'I'm going to a friend's house for dinner tonight. Yes, I have a friend!'

And now, good heavens, it's February. Just like that.

Oh and you'll find my latest article for The Bay magazine here. It's all about a donkey with a false leg.
