madgravity Monday 14- very cold and windy. Temps from 11 to 39 degrees.
I did my stretches, yoga, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for two minutes; too dang cold to do any running.
I got all cleaned up and ready to got to the Neighborhood Watch meeting at the community center, but when I went to start the my truck the battery was dead. That put a damper on my plans for tonight and I let Peggy know I wasn’t coming.
I watched season 5 episode 10 of “Castle”; Castle’s ex wife comes to take care of Alexus.
I watched season 2 episode 5 of “Voyager”; Chakotay meets up with his tribe’s Sky People.
Tuesday 15- still cold with a low of 19 and a high of 47; things are warming up.
I did my stretches, yoga, I ran up the hill with two 5 LBS dumbbells, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for three minutes.
I took the battery out of the truck and put it inside to charge on one of my solar panels.
I spent the better part of the day working on my first book “A Little Desert Home” getting it ready for the final printing.
I watched season 5 episode 11 of “Castle”; a DJ is found shot after leaving a party where a cell phone is stolen.
I watched a movie called “District B13” (2004); had a lot of action with guys jumping around trying to recover a neutron bomb stolen by gang members.
Wednesday 16- a little bit warmer still, but windy and cold.
I did my stretches.
Worked on book.
Messed with computers.
Thursday 17- temps almost to 60 degrees!
I did my stretches, yoga, ran a mile and a half with 1.5lbs around each wrists, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for five minutes. Finally warm enough to get out to do my running... really missed that!
I did some cleaning around the house.
I drove the scooter down to Border to collect my mail.
I did my stretches, lifted 10lb dumbbells and went for my evening walk with my backpack.
I worked on my book throughout most of the day spending perhaps about five hours editing. I have four chapters done.
I did my stretches, lifted 20lb dumbbells, and went for a night run.
I watched season 2 episode 6 of “Voyager”; Kes meets some of her kin on a space station that belongs to the companion of the caretaker who brought them it this part of the galaxy in the delta quadrant.
Friday 18- temps finally into 60 degrees, yay!

I updated the Copper Mountain Mesa Website and sent out the Newsletter.
I rode my scooter to Lear Ave to get my mail.

I did my stretches, lifted 20lb dumbbells, and went for a night run.
I worked on the book throughout the day again and finished all the way up to chapter 8.
The end of Microsoft’s discount Win8 is January 31 and it goes from $39.99 to $199. So I thought I’d give it a try... I bought it around 10:30pm and it was finally fully installed by 4:30am... I was too darn tired to mess with it and went to sleep.
Saturday 19- another fine day with temps in the very low 60s.
I did my stretches and went for a short walk.
I worked on Windows 8 getting the feel for it. I do believe that it is really a social media GUI laying on top of Windows 7... I don’t see any anti-virus program running...
I called family and friends.
I finished editing chapter 8... very slow process.
I watched an season 5 episode 10 of “Fringe” called “The boy must live.”
Sunday 20- temps still in the 60s with lows into the high 30s.
I did my stretches and went for a short walk.
I worked on the truck cleaning all the battery cables and fittings and re-installing the battery; works really fine now! I also cleaned up the shop area and tools while I was out there.
I finished editing chapter 9... I think...
I watched season 2 episode 7 of “Voyager” Seska lure Voyager into a trap to steal its technology.
