Sunday 16 - Monday 17

Sunday 16- I did my stretches.
I called family and friends that I missed calling yesterday. I assembled another exercise thingy but this time I know the name, it’s called the Heavy Bag Stand. And it does exactly what it says; holds a heavy bag! It seemed to take forever to assemble because I’d be interrupted by phone calls, but I got it together before sunset. Now all I had to do was lift the 50lbs bag up to the hook which took me four tries to do it- maybe the bag weighs more than 50lbs, I’ll have to check on that. I gave it only a few punches because I was dang tired by the time I had it all put together. By the way the other exercise machine I assembled last Friday is called a Multifunction Core Trainer.
I then read a few chapters of “Without Remorse” by Tom Clancy until really late.
I did my stretches, practiced my guitar, wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night.

Monday 17- I did my stretches and yoga, ran a mile, lifted weights, did the core trainer, punched the bag some, and rode my new bike; dang I did it all!
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 48 to 80 degrees, warm NNW winds at 10 to 15 MPH, humidity around 33 percent, nice sunny skies again.
According to the National Weather Service: “M.L.King Day: Sunny, with a high near 74. North northwest wind between 13 and 15 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph. Monday Night: Clear, with a low around 48. Northwest wind between 7 and 10 mph.”
I started writing my column for the Hi-Desert Star but I’ll have to finish it tomorrow. Also wrote a goodbye letter to the newspaper and sent it to the Editor.
I went for my evening walk; what a magnificent day!
Audrey called and we had a nice chat but we didn’t talk our usual two hours and kept it down to 30minutes.
I read a bunch more chapters of “Without Remorse” by Tom Clancy until really late again.
