Day 1719

 We got up relatively early, but stayed in bed to play games for quite a while.  Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.  When we were finished I called Hooch to see if he was open for business.  He said to come about 1:30, so we packed up and left.

Because we were early we stopped at John and Patty's.  We gave them the cream cheese we bought for them last time and I returned the electric bicycle books.  We stayed about an hour.

The chest pain started while we were at John and Patty's.  It was pretty bad, so I called Hooch and said we weren't coming.  It got steadily better as we drove south.  By the time we got to Woodburn I was feeling pretty good and was hungry.  We stopped for happy meals and then I sat outside with Lucy while Ellen went to Safeway.

We went over to the club to dump garbage and get Ellen's new earplugs.  The pain started up again by the time we got home.  I sat in the recliner and watched TV until I fell asleep.  I woke up about 5, still in pain.  Dinner was right out.

I went outside to drain the tanks.  Sitting in the sun seemed to help some.  When that was finished I laid down on the bed and went to sleep.  It seemed that the pain would recede if I didn't move.  While I was asleep I dreamed that Ellen was outside chasing Cooper.  When I woke up she had been doing that.

I laid down again and played games.  Suddenly I had the urge to vomit.  I made it to the can and barfed up what was left of the happy meal.  That actually made me feel better.  After that I took a shower and went to sleep.
