Wednesday

 Today was a sad day.  How we treat each other seems to make it that way.  I'm tired of sad days.  When the commercials asking for dog food when our children go hungry seems a little off.  When bullets instead of communication take precedence just seems a bit screwed. When health concerns with few or bad solutions become the norm. There are so many more examples of a world in disarray, off center, out of control. I'm tired.  I think the tired group is growing but must not give in.  

So what else is new.  At the Y today I met a North friend living with Parkinsons.  I was amazed at watching him do so many things well.  I shared with him at my first wake up at 4, I discovered my left knee was really, really sore.  Why?  Not a clue.  So, it was cane time for sure today.  The response from my friend was be ready for our bodies to surprise us with new things. That seems to be something to depend on now.  

So the morning was slow and easy.  And knitting was slow and easy.  And yes, the afternoon brought a trip to the Y using the Nu Stepper with sitting down exercises. I skipped the treadmill.  Easy was the word on the stepper for 20 minutes.  Then to Kroger's for Better Than Bullion Ham flavored. There was none.  Then on to Needlers and there was HAM flavored.  

The supper menu was filled with split pea soup with a lot of ham from Christmas.  More is stored in the refrigerator but should hit the freezer at some point.  

Tonight, not much is happening.  There might be a Pacer game, but the guys just don't have it together.  They can have a good start and then loose it at the end.  The loosing streak is LONG.  They are really, really good at that.  Tomorrow is a new beginning.  Let's pray for better days.  Sometimes I feel like I'm in a black hole. The sun might come out...tomorrow! 

No pictures today.  You guessed correctly.
