Stay home for a change
I decided that today I would stay home and get some work done that I've been putting off doing. Three loads of laundry was at the top of my list. I pulled a clean bath towel from the linen cupboard this morning and it was line-dried, stiff as a board, the way I like it! With the cold dreary weather lately I've had to dry everything in the machine and this morning is the perfect weather for drying clothes outdoors. I had a problem at the laundry room with the lock on the door to the courtyard - the bolt was stuck and wouldn't slide. I came home and got a hammer to help it along, and got the door open but killed the lock! I snuck the hammer back home.Joe stopped by with Keira, who wanted to know about my clothespins - what I do with them and how, and where are my clothes hanging with the clothespins. So I took her across the street to show her and Joe came with us. I guess he doesn't ever remember me hanging clothes on a line. The kids love to play with the pins when they visit me, and do all sorts of clever things with them.Rvers, fire up those big engines because according to the news, the price of diesel is coming way down. Of course you know it won't last long, but it sure is nice to see fuel at an affordable price.I'm a little tired from a brisk walk on the treadmill a few hours ago. It is amazing at how the walking affects my heart rate - I don't reach the max advisable rate for a few minutes longer each time I walk. I am feeling so much better day by day, and hope the trend continues.I almost feel like taking a nap in my recliner but don't think I'll do that. I don't like the way napping keeps me up so much later at night.

I'll Try Again
I just finished hanging the 3rd load of wash on the lines (across the street), and all of the sudden it has become overcast. We're not supposed to get rain until tomorrow. The plane ride back from NY is what I'm blaming it on, but ever since...

For some reason I just didn't feel like doing a thing yesterday, and just sat around the house. I did get to the gym this afternoon and had a quick workout, which I really needed. Today (other than going to the gym) I have spent most of the...
