Today, it was lunch with CCS in Ossining. Given that I hadn't seen her in a month, I was hoping for a quiet time at a "Red Sauce Joint" in Ossining. That was not to be, given the loud table behind me making it hard for us to have a nice conversation.
But first...
I had some new clothes to wear today. So after shaving, showering, and applying makeup, I decided to wear them. First was the sports bra from Rainbeau Curves. That fit well. But the leggings were one size too small. (I'll save them for when I shrink a size - they were cheap enough to gamble on.) Over this was another tunic dress from J.C.Penney. I looked good when I drove to the restaurant.
CCS and I arrived at the same time. It was crowded for a change, and we ended up sitting too close to the group of friends/office workers (?) who were talking loudly. I couldn't hear CCS, and I had to ask her to repeat herself many a time. We talked about politics, health issues, family, and other things of note. At least, the Lasagna was as good as usual, and I had enough for leftovers. Yet, I could barely keep track of the chat due to the noise behind me. But the crowd left before we finished our meal, and we had a few quiet minutes before we, ourselves, had to leave.
After dinner, I went home to relax. I made a couple of appointments with friends - one for coffee with a co-op board member, and the other with a friend from Dover Plains that I haven't seen in ages. This will keep me busy for a while.
