Tuesday 22
Mar. 23rd, 2011 01:03 amTuesday 22- I did my stretches, ran a mile, lifted weights, did the core trainer, punched the bag some, and rode my bike.
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 38 to 59 degrees, SW winds at 10 to 12 MPH, humidity around 40 percent, mostly clear skies.
According to the National Weather Service: “Wednesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 61. Calm wind becoming south between 17 and 20 mph. Winds could gust as high as 28 mph. Wednesday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 40. Breezy, with a west southwest wind 22 to 25 mph decreasing to between 14 and 17 mph. Winds could gust as high as 34 mph.”
I’ve been moping around the house these last few days and haven’t written in my journal since Saturday. I’ve been keeping up with my exercises but other than that I haven’t done much. It started to hit me on Sunday that I won’t be seeing my friend Ron ever again and I just need time to come to terms with that. I helped Linda get collect Ron’s clothes and take them down to the Hospice Thrift Shop in Joshua Tree and then we had lunch at this health food place; the food was actually not that bad. I guess this is all part of dealing with a friend’s passing. Linda found a friend who will be staying at her house and keeping an eye on things until she gets back this summer.
Earlier in the day a neighbor called to tell me that he was woken by two men outside his house going through his storage shed. He yelled out the window “Shoot them Tom, shoot them, shoot them Tom” and these would be thieves dropped everything and ran to their white truck and sped off down the road. My neighbor lives alone and there was no Tom! I thought that was some quick and smart thinking on his part.
I must have talked to Kelly for the better part of the evening or maybe I should say most of the night.
I wrote to my journal, posted it to the web and called it a night.
