Went to the sport's center close to noon today. I now can bicycle 20 minutes at one time. I struggle with boredom as I sit on the machine with my legs going around and around.
Lately I have been trying to be inspired to buy real gym clothes but I find no role models that I like. This is not a fancy place.
I have found lots of tattoos that I like. Maybe that is the right direction.

Bought myself a box of see's candy this morning. Had a difficult meeting on Sunday and was feeling down. Noticed this huge Brink's armored truck stopping at the stores to pick up something. I suspect money. Del Monte Shopping Center must of had a good retail weekend after thanksgiving.
the chocolates taste wonderful.

Went to a memorial service for a person I have known for many years. I have reached age of funerals and memorial service. Friends and acquaintances are dying and at some point my time will be up and everyone will gather to talk about me. I hope they will have some funny things to say and everyone will laugh. this memorial was full of tears and laughter.

I did it. I went up to my son's house by passing the 40 steps. It was good to spend thanksgiving with them. I had a quiet morning. I sat outside in the sun wearing a warm jacket. It still is very cold here.
Now there are left overs in my refrigerator for tomorrow. Turkey, potatoes, cranberry sauce, pie, gravy, all waiting for tomorrow.

Met my friend at the Alternative Cafe this morning to write together. I had never been there before. It is so strange, just two tables, a couple of chairs, a not busy coffee maker, an art gallery, a business office. A couple of guys on their computers.
what is their business mode?. How do they make money. My perennial question.
I am definitely missing something.
They sold three cups of coffee during the hour an half we were there and two of them were to us.
I am going to have to stop asking people about their business plans. They get uncomfortable trying to explain how they make money.

Went to see the movie FAIR GAME at the Osio this afternoon. Very well done movie and I left so sad thinking about the corruption in the white house and the Iraq war.
Then my friends and I went to the Full Moon restaurant and had a great meal in spite of the sadness of it all.
Maybe sadness is the wrong word, I feel helpless about our country being at war.

It's cold and dark outside and I am bored with TV and reading and it's too early to go to bed and it's cold and dark. Every year I am surprised by the darkness and have to redesign my life to fit into the life in the dark.
I think it must be colder and darker in Minnesota where my siste is staying the winter.

Had a leisurely phone conversation with my sister in Minnesota. She was sitting in front of a fire watching the snow come down. I was sitting in my living room with the door wide open to let in the warm sunlight,
Went to the sports center this afternoon to do my bicycle riding. I wonder if it helps. I can't tell if I am getting better. I am enjoying my handicap card for my car.

I am still reluctant to watch the news hour. the political news bores me maybe because my guys didn't win. It would be a relief to just stop caring.
Spent the morning at a workshop on Alzheimer's disease. Now that is another sad topic. It doesn't seem to run in our family yet.
Sun is out and the ocean is wonderful.

Went to see the new Woody Allen movie yesterday. YOU WILL MEET A TALL DARK STRANGER. I think that was the name. The vusals were wonderful but the story was too sad, beautiful people fighting and betraying each other. I am tired of that theme. Surely there is something else besides a romance gone sour.

This morning at the sports center I started looking around to see what the women were wearing. No one but me had on jeans, they all wore some shinny pants. Suddenly I became self conscious and wondered where I could buy the right outfit. I no longer feel invisible now that I am going 3 times a week.

Another warm fall day. It is so deceptive. We need rain but we aqre being seduced by warm sunshine.
Met my friend Tasha at coffee this morning at the Paris Bakery. My son and two grandchildren showed up and we all talked and laughed. They are at a delightful age and I guess Tasha and I are at delightful age..

the bifg contest this week was the Giants vs the Rangers. the Giants won. It's hard to get excited about the elections. I think the tea party is winning and who wants that. The baseball game seemed so much clearer and to the point.
Maybe we should have giant games for our elections rather then all the mail and advertisements and sound bites and rally's. Surely there has to be a better way.
