Again I went without the tape to do my weekly food shopping, and later on I prepared the mural panels for painting. Being able to do my own thing without having to depend on people to chauffeur me around is the best thing for me right now. I know I have to be patient, but at least I am living a more normal life. Some long-lost cousins came for lunch on Saturday. Still have my eye taped. Their nine-month old daughter gave me quizzical looks. During the week I transferred the fish to the mural panels and then helped some of the children with the painting. Some did well, others not.
