You Don’t Look Sick – Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis: DAY 2 HAWAII
I woke up super early. I had difficulty sleeping. At first it was a bit warm and the fan is very noisy, but the main problems were 1) another guest was snoring and 2) someone was blaring pop music at 3am. It was one song from Judy, but it woke me up. Now back to the snoring. All quests have the windows open because it is hot and there is no air conditioning. A guest snores or snores so loudly that we can all hear it! It kept waking me up. It was loud! It sounded like someone said “ew.” I don’t know, but I hope it’s milder tonight.
Then I drove to the farmers market and met my friend. It started to rain very hard. I never found my umbrella, so all I had was my windbreaker. We walked around and saw all the little stalls. I bought someone a Christmas present. Then we got in our cars and went to another small market. Between the two markets I was given lettuce, a red pepper and a tomato so I can make sandwiches. The only thing I don’t have is vegan Mayo, but I’ll have to suffer through it.
Family drove to my friend’s house. It’s the first time I’ve seen it in real life and it’s beautiful. It’s the kind of house I’d like to live in. He’s doing some renovations and additions, but he gave me a full tour. We sat outside on his lanai for a few hours and talked.
Then I drove back to Hilo where I stopped at a vegan restaurant to get a sandwich. It started raining really hard and I wanted to eat outside, so I took my sandwich back to my hotel room. Since it was almost four in the afternoon, that’s both my lunch and dinner. I’m so tired and I’m not going to get up very late tonight.
See you tomorrow…
