Travel
I fixed a big bowl of my usual breakfast fruit and carried it into the living room. I was balancing the bowl on my lap and trying to open my laptop when the bowl somehow jumped and tipped most of the fruit on the floor. Not being one to waste, and since I keep the floor area relatively clean in this part of the room, I quickly picked it up and put it back into the bowl. It tasted fine and I didn't waste. Most of it went under my chair where no one walks around anyway.
I figured I might as well dust mop in every room and am glad that's done. I'm starting to get things together for travel but have a long way to go before I'm ready. I'll no doubt be scrambling on the last day before I leave.
About my walking routine and to answer Phil's comment, yes I have been thinking about the trail in back of my house. It goes all the way over to the American River and connects with the downtown-to- Folsom bike trail. That is the same trail that goes past Cal Expo and where I walked Lady and Mandy when I stayed there in my RV for several months.
I'm pretty sure that a few homeless people live in the area behind me, although probably on the other side of the trail. I used to meet them now and then while walking Lady, and they were mostly shy but friendly. I have no problem with them living there - where else are they going to stay? Maybe the likelihood of problems occurs with the larger encampments, but not here in my experience.
As for walking on it now, I might do it - I could walk down to the river and then if it is getting dark I can return along Sunrise Blvd. I've been starting out at 8pm as it is cooling down by then, so I could make it back before total darkness even if I can manage 3 or 4 miles. I think I walk about 4 mph.
I just received an odd email - it starts out, "We are one of the best digital images retouching/editing professionals located in China."

The weather, that is. My desktop weather thingy predicted 58 for a high today, and at almost 5 pm it's already up to 66! I'm certainly okay with that, although my house is cold enough that I've had my little electric heater...

The day has been a little overcast at times, but it's 65 degrees so I won't complain. I went to get a few birthday cards at Target, and also dropped by the library where I checked out four books on quilting. Target could have been...

I parked my car at a lot a few miles further along the trail and walked about 2-1/2 miles, which is 5 miles round trip. My legs are hurting, and I can't understand why they should since I walk a lot to begin with. The sun was...
