Back in the saddle again





I got up at 5 and went to swim at 7, swam 15 crawl laps and one back then did an hour of aqua aerobics. burr! Getting out I had my pareo and 2 towels and flip flops. Couldn't wait to get under that warm shower. I need 4 towels and a pareo because?It's a lot to carry. I smell the chlorine again...boo! it gets in your skin.
I need to find my lock.

Do those car fobs you press need new batteries? Mine won't beep anymore. Fortunately it had a little key but one you click and everything is a button and smart system we get spoiled and it's hard to go back.

I deep conditioned my hair worried about the pool and recent chemicals. I need to get a cap like the swimmers use and put conditioner on and use ear plugs. I still think it's too light. I blew it a bit need rollers and everything...goop for heat and gel and then to aid insult to injury rollers and heat.

Afterwards I hit the grocery store for a calendar for the library batteries and some veggies. Cereal was on sale I think for 4.50 a box. I hate the auto checkouts. Reduce my bill if I do your work.

Then I drove to Sunnyvale about 20 miles N to have brunch with a teacher from school. I've been concerned about her. She's out on disability with a brain aneurysm and is scheduled for surgery. She's been out since October on full pay covered with disability and catastrophic illness.

We had a nice breakfast. I don't know her very well but I like her very much.

I went to the drug store to get another calendar for my office and turn in a prescription.

I pulled the poncho mom made for me and took out the aqua knit suit she knit and a sweater, I bought in Italy for Gwen at 3, now to pass on to Clare; packed them up to mail to Gwen. I found a nice skirt, twin sweater set too I wanted to pass on. I'm reluctant. When she was here at 18 I offered her some and she wasn't interested. Maybe it's time for some grown up clothes now though she's 32.

I got into my boots and got them zipped and unzipped by myself today. If I sit in the drivers set and put a boot up I can reach the zipper and eventually pull them on and it up.

I want to see the movie
Slum Dog Millionaire
. Gwen would like it's set in Delhai or Bombay, India where she was.
