         The sun should be warm, but and it always a but, the wind is blowing and I am cold.  I had planned to stop turning on the heater in the morning. The heater is pushing out the cold air in the house.  My writing friends are coming over this morning to continue our years of weekly meetings to write with each other.

         Two close friends come by in the late afternoon.  As usual we talk about ourselves.  He is a hospital nurse and they both are artists. We share information about the medical world, from the patient’s point of view and nurse’s point of view.  Surprisingly different. It helps me accept being sick realizing how hard these nurses work.

         Started rereading another Paula Fox memoir, BORROWED FINERY. I still am interested in how other people have lived their life.  Is there some secret I can learn about life from these books?

         I am ready for a good mystery story now but I suspect I have read all of the good ones that are out there. At least all the popular ones.
