It never fails.
It never fails that as soon as I post an entry I realize that I’ve failed to mention a few happenings. It was last Saturday when Jassy decided that we all needed to go to George’s for lunch. Whe...
Busy.
Wednesday’s entry: I finished reading “I Am Radar” by Reif Larsen. A nice little novel. Liam Dog and I walked to the library on the square to return the book. I had picked him up and carried him ...
Catching up.
Sunday’s entry: The last day in the desert went as planned. After my bowl of cereal and one cup of coffee I walked over to the pool and took a long hot shower. When I returned I started a load of...
All good.
I finished reading “Stone Mattress” by Margaret Atwood. It was a very nice collection of nine “tales”. Very nice. Mom got the results yesterday from all these tests over the past month or so. She...
The Twilight Zone?
Mom got a call from my sis today so we headed off to Maricopa. Mom let me drive. Oh goody! Eastbound towards the city then south. Freeway all the way. Mom had wrote down the directions so of cour...
Impossible numbers.
I made it back to the pool yesterday. It was a fairly cool day, only in the mid nineties. It was Mom’s 78th birthday yesterday. She wanted to go to Olive Garden to eat. So we headed out about 4p...
Maybe.
I finally got the sarong http://www.amazon.com/Sarongs-Celtic-Sarong-Interlace-Knotwork/dp/B00IV54W8W/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1430581735&sr=8-7&keywords=men%27s+sarong from Amazon. And...
Umm yeah . . .
My darling daughter booked me a flight home for the 23rd of May. I’m ready. And more important, I believe Mom is ready. The first triple digit high temp is due this weekend. There was a really...
Stifled soundtrack.
Thursday morning was cardio. The machine I used was the recumbent stationary bike. There is all kinds of information on the screen but the only one I paid attention to was the heart rate. I kept ...
Thirty Days in the Forest.
Thirty Days in the Forest Day 1- March 6, 2015 Friday 6:10pm Everything went as planned after we had changed the original plan. Instead of hiking out to the center of a Federal Wilderness Area we...
A routine?
I was up and out by 6am again this morning. Today was strength. I had brought my reading glasses so I was able to decipher the instructions to the machine. I worked out for a half hour. I’ve nev...
First day.
I was out of the house at 6am this morning. I had put on a new white T-shirt, my old shorts I now sleep in because my pajama pants had disintegrated, a pair of new socks and my new shoes. I walke...
Handicap parking & NPR
We were up at 6am. Mom took a quick shower. “Do you need to use the bathroom before I get in there?” “Nah, I’m fine.” I realized after she got in there I should have gone for it. Good thing ther...
A productive day.
I spent over an hour this morning typing an entry. And lost it somewhere while copying and pasting. I then spent two hours trying to find where the fuck it went to. The Word program auto saves ev...
I'm here.
The flight was great. We flew off into a fairly clear sky right on time. I had nabbed the last seat on the flight and it turned out to be a window seat. And with the sky clear I was able to guess...
On my way, once again.
I’m sitting at the airport, two-and-a-half hours before my flight. I just had Jassy and Clayton drop me off before their class rather than be in a hurry to do it during their morning break. Less ...
A sign of life entry?
I’m still alive. Thirty days in the wild. Glorious. I kept my handwritten journal with an entry every day. Some day it’ll be transcribed and posted here. Trivia, really. Okay . . . The week befor...
Clock is ticking.
Saturday evening we went over to the student union to use the internet. I didn’t quite get caught up on everything. Sunday I spent the day sorting backpacking gear and repackaging food. The pile...

A cold walk coming.
Last Tuesday my brother and sis-in-law showed up, on their return from San Diego. Only they had detoured by way of Las Vegas. While in Vegas they got remarried by Elvis. Too cool. I remember tel...
Another book.
I finished reading “The Blind Assassin” by Margaret Atwood. I took it back to the RV park library and found a non-fiction book to read. Maybe I can finish this one up before I leave. It’s been ne...
Bad news.
My sis called a couple of days ago. She had been feeling puny for weeks and had went to a herbalist and then a doctor. The prognosis was kidney infection and something going on with adrenal gland...
Siblings.
I forgot to mention that my little sis came up from Maricopa last Saturday to visit for a few hours. I had made a roast with taters for supper and we played a couple of games of Aggravation. It w...
Lame game.
Friday it rained all day. A steady non-stop rain. By Saturday morning the rain had stopped but it remained cloudy all day. Yesterday it was sunny but somewhat cool. Mom and I watched the Superbo...
A sarong?
It rained yesterday morning. But by noon it was warm enough to go to the pool for a few hours. A good book, seventy-five degrees, and some very warm sun. Nice. Jassy called and we talked for a wh...
