Monday 28

Monday 28- I did my stretches.
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 33 and 52 degrees, slight breeze, humidity around 38 percent, overcast skies again.
According to the National Weather Service: “Tuesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 55. Northwest wind around 6 mph. Tuesday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 36. West southwest wind between 3 and 8 mph."
I’m going to keep this post short because I woke up with a sore throat and don’t feel so good.
I wrote my column for the newspaper and sent it in late last night after I completed my journal.
I sorted through old pictures most of the day trying to find all pictures related to Jimmy’s visits out here. It took me a few hours but I found 351 images and put them on a thumb drive for him to pick up when he leaves tomorrow morning. He had lost all his pictures when his hard drive took a dump last spring. Then I took a long nap with the woodstove fired up; it felt nice. Then I awoke and did some webwork for a while.
I did my stretches; practiced my guitar; wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night.

Tuesday 29

Tuesday 29- I did my stretches.
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 35 and 57 degrees, slight breeze, humidity around 37 percent, mostly clear skies.
According to the National Weather Service: “Wednesday: Partly sunny, with a high near 56. West wind between 6 and 13 mph, with gusts as high as 18 mph. Wednesday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 38. West wind around 8 mph."
I’m going to keep this post short again because of a sore throat and I don’t feel so good. My friend Kris on MySpace isn’t feeling all that great either and I hope she gets better, too!
I want to be well so I can go on my New Years Eve run that I’ve been doing the last few years (I’ll have to go back in my journal to see how many), so I just stayed inside today playing with my computers and staying warm. I think it’s great to end one year and bring in a new one running.
Jimmy and his family stopped by on their way back home to pick up that thumb drive that I put all the pictures I’ve taken of them throughout the years. They dropped off a pecan pie just for me, yum!
I went for a very short evening walk and watched the sunset. I was thinking of how many other people go outside to watch sunsets. I try to catch them every day. Watching a sunset kind of helps put things into perspective; living on a small planet circling the Sun.
That old girlfriend came into my dreams again last night. I told her that love is sometimes a sacrifice and to really love someone is being able to let them go. In my dream there were these ghostly white ethereal threads trailing over a long distance binding her to me; I cut them.
I watched “Nova: What Darwin Never Knew” that was very interesting to me.
I did my stretches and lifted weights; practiced my guitar; wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night. I hope I feel better tomorrow!
