So on the morning I visited, Eleanor came downstairs, poured herself a cup of coffee, sat in a reclining chair, and she sat there, kind of amiably talking to each of her children as one after the other they came downstairs, checked the list, made themselves breakfast, checked the list again, put the dishes in the dishwasher, rechecked the list, fed the pets or whatever chores they had, checked the list once more, gathered their belongings, and made their way to the bus.
Jadi pada pagi saya berkunjung, Eleanor turun tangga, menuangkan secangkir kopi untuknya sendiri, duduk di kursi malas, dan dia duduk di sana, berbicara dengan ramah kepada setiap anaknya ketika mereka satu per satu turun ke bawah, menandai daftar, membuat sarapan mereka sendiri, menandai daftar lagi, menaruh piring di pencuci piring, menandai list lagi, memberi makan hewan peliharaan atau apapun tugas yang mereka lakukan, menandai daftar sekali lagi, mengumpulkan barang milik mereka, dan berjalan menuju bus.
