At M's apt. Was up early as usual. Both us went down and had a look around the area outside the apt. complex at Addison. Bought tissue roll at the nearby convenience store. R had hurt his leg a bit, so he sat on a park bench while i walked in circles around the dog park. Went back to apt. at 8.30. Madhu left to the gym. I got ready and did some packing work. Madhu was back by 10.45. Left at 11.45 and went to Madhu's friend Rekha's house for lunch as planned. After lunch came back to Rajesh's house and took a nap. It was Narmana's birthday. Played croquet for a while and then 'Now What', a new game which she had received as a gift. Hardly played a round..it was time to leave for Chuy's, a Mexican restaurant. Madhu went to do some grocery shopping and joined us later at the restaurant. The restaurant was crowded, so took a token and went to Ross dress store within the same complex. Returned to Chuy's half an hour later. Had to wait for over an hour to get a table for eight of us. After dinner, back home, decorated the chocolate cake that rajesh had made and cut the cake. Played a few rounds of 56. Madhu left at 10.30. Talked with Divya and Rajesh for a while and retired to bed.
