Finally got an appointment next week for my gas furnace to be serviced by a reputable company. Needs a new filter and the system checked out.  It has been a couple of years and winter is coming.

 A friend came by in the morning and brought me a chocolate donut.  I now have had my fill of donuts and am searching for some other special treat. Nothing comes to mind.  In the past it has been butter salted popcorn and then Trader Joes tiny ice cream cones.  I don’t know what I want.

I am finishing Ruth Ozeki’s latest book. It has taken me awhile.  It is interesting and different from her previous work.

Flocks of birds still hanging around my neighborhood. All sizes. Feelings of sadness have moved on. The problem with surgeries and medical treatments is that I become hyper aware of parts of my body that used to function without much thought.
