Gave Instead Of Lent 38-41

March 29: Gave my legs and body a few extra minutes of rest as they recovered from their soccer exploits.

March 30: Spent the morning and early afternoon at the beach with some staycationing friends and their children. Then gave American Airlines as much time as they needed to deliver passengers to the island. Poor people had had to be transferred from another carrier after missing their initial connection, so were glad to be here, however. Anyway, what's a few extra hours waiting for friends?

March 31: Gave our American visitors a little tour of the islands central and eastern sides and helped them try to connect with those who could help them locate the birthplace of grandparents

April 1: Gave a rib tickle to my little daughter who looked hard enough to see the rabbit coming through her ceiling.
