I started the morning with the loving kindness meditation again. I had a good cry, but it was still hard to get out of the bed. I ended up doing a smoothie for breakfast because my gut has been giving me problems. Lots of bubbles and time on the toilet.
But I got to work and made a good deal of progress on testing. I got some instructions recorded and answered some emails.
I had a dentist appointment in the afternoon, and I decided to walk rather than ask a neighbor for a ride since my 90 day suspension started today. It was a nice walk. As I was walking by a neighbor’s place, I got waved over and re-met one of my near neighbors and met another neighbor as well as a visitor. And a very lovey dog, who would have licked me all over if I’d allowed.
I had to talk a bit about Ambrose’s death since it was related to my health history update. That was tough, but I got two hugs which was good.
I realized that I’d forgotten to get more bread yesterday at the grocery store, so on the way back from my cleaning I stopped at the general store. And then I stopped at Windy Acres Design Shop to pick up a card. I ended up getting a couple of soaps that smelled really nice as well.
The walk back was a bit colder than the walk down, as the sun had disappeared. But I actually took my coat off going up my hill because I was so hot from exertion. I should be getting my etrike on Monday. I hope it can take the hill.
Overall not a bad day. I cooked macaroni and cheese for dinner, and fried up some spam. I was really hungry after I got home from the walk around 4. Evenings always feel better. There was a spectacular sunset this evening. Clouds painted with shades of pink and orange, gilded with golden light from the east.
