I think the online solitaire game is rigged.  Sometimes it is easy to win and other times it is difficult. I have a long list of defeats.  Somewhere a young man is just laughing at us as we play the game. After hundreds of games I now have favorite cards, cards that are allies. Other cards are bad news. I can’t escape my human mind.

Each morning I read the NYT obituary articles.  First to see what caused their death and then to check out how they lived. I am seeing that death comes to all of us.  I have at least five more years. We always have at least five more years before we die until we don’t.

I wear my old torn shoes because they are comfortable. I have new ones exactly the same as the old ones but the new shoes are uncomfortable.

The tall man comes two days in a row for a visit and some licorice. He is preparing for his long walk in Spain starting in several weeks. Plans on walking 300 plus miles in 30 days. I feel successful when I can walk to my mailbox without my cane.
