I urgently needed to mail a letter, so I drove the scooter down to my mailbox on Border Ave. I was lucky the mailman was still there putting letters and advertisements in the boxes where I get my mail. I handed him my letter and was off on my way back home.

Saturday 05- a very sunny and clear day with a high of 47.
I did my stretches. I made a decision that I am going to start taking Saturdays as well as my Sundays off from exercising so that I will have two days to let my body rest and catch up. It will give me more time to do other work around my home that needs doing. My exercising takes around two hours a day to complete; that includes my evening walks and night runs along with my routine I do in the mornings.
I cleaned the kitchen very well. I also worked in the yard.
I worked on the Harley that won’t start, trying to figure out if I have a bad battery. I put the battery on a charger and will check it tomorrow to see if it will hold a charge.

I did my stretches.
Filled solar battery bank with distilled water and cleaned the connections.
Worked on the “Gross Polluter” (my truck)... It was having trouble starting and it turned out to be a loose wire to the battery.
It was supposed to rain this weekend but didn’t and I was holding off watering the plants; so they all got watered today.
I’m still not sure about the battery on the Harley. I’ll leave it on charge and check it again tomorrow; no rush on that.
I took a broom and dustpan and gave the whole house a once over.
Samsung finally came out with Android 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean) for my Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and I happily installed it. I can now use Google Now which is really cool!
