     Being engaged with facebook improves my life. I read the complaints about the social media but for me there are lots of benefits.  Keeping up with local news, being a part of the bladder cancer support groups, hearing from community members and friends, seeing interesting art, etc. So many ways to curate my experience with facebook.

     An old vegan friend from Santa Cruz visits in the afternoon. He speaks at Brown Bag Zen. I give him an apple, a banana and some nuts. I see him once or twice a year.  We immediately jump into the middle of our life long conversation. Two hours later he hits the road back to Santa Cruz.

     I pace on my deck several times a day. Now I am including walking without my cane. I am so afraid of falling.  I want to be stronger. From the deck I see Mount toro, the airport and a lot of Monterey.

     I started watching THE PIT on Max.  A new series based on a hospital’s emergency room. I am surprised that I am still interested in these medical dramas.
