I got myself on the road this morning thinking I'd go to Costco; about halfway there I changed my mind and decided I'd try Target (I always spend more than I plan on at Costco), so I started circling over there. Then I realized that much of what I wanted was in the food department, and I like to shop for groceries at grocery stores, when possible, so I just about completed the circle to drive to Bel Air. Is that why women have the reputation for changing their minds so often? Nothing like being flexible, is the way I see it.
I filled another RX for post surgery and now I have taken care of all the items on that list.
Jeannie won't be going to the gym this evening as they are having Autumn's birthday party tomorrow - this is the kiddie party, but her actual birthday is on the 18th. I decided to go to the gym closest to me and at least walk on the treadmill since that is probably one of the few things I'll be able to do for a while after my surgery.
I don't know what it is, but no matter what speed I set it at, I can't walk on one of those things without holding on. I tried to act nonchalant and hold on with only one hand at a time, and tried to let go a few times and swing my arms, but I get dizzy, disoriented, and am afraid I'll keel over. Maybe in time it will get better. I walked most of a mile at 3mph, and a little slower on the warm up and cool down. I'm really tired now - it's more work than you'd think. I also walked around and looked at some of the machines - some are familiar, but I feel more comfortable at the other gym. I'm lucky to have one so close though.
This morning I got around to making Carolyn's egg muffins, which are so good. I just used sausage, egg, milk, and chopped fresh spinach. Next time I'll try a few different veggies in it.
Sherry asked about a picture of my haircut. I didn't take my camera to the hairdresser so I took about 20 "selfies" this morning most of which I immediately sent to the trash. I think my hair looks much better - fuller and more poufy in reality than on this picture. I also think I look like 20 miles of bad road, but I'm sorry, it's the best I can do right now.
- Distraction
I must be pretty distracted this morning. I washed my hair in the shower and decided to use a drop of conditioner, which I don't do very often. It is made from hemp and I love the way it makes my hair glisten. But this morning I...

I drove over to Jeannie's this morning for coffee and some tasty cookies. We sat around and worked the NY Times crossword puzzle, and talked about getting an assembly line together to make tamales. It would be so much easier than one person...

I just went outside to get my mail and walked into a beautiful sunny afternoon! Though we desperately need rain, I am happy to see the sun, especially right now. This morning was very chilly, and I hurried to the kitchen to start my coffee maker. ...
- Get A Move On!
That's what I keep telling myself. I plan to leave in about 10-12 days from now, and will just get there the easiest way possible, hopefully not over I-80. I had vowed I would never again drive through Bakersfield or Barstow, but I may...

Going in Circles!

While the thermometer only reads 55 right now, it is delightfully warm outside in the sun - a beautiful day.
