Again I have to apologize for my journal being very boring... I am still into edit mode and remain totally focused.

Sunday 06- temps into the 90s.

I did my stretches, lifted weights, yoga, ran a mile and a half with 1.5lbs around each wrists, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for five minutes.

Edited book...

Even more editing....

Tuesday 08- beautiful day!

I did my stretches.

Linda H. came by with spaghetti and split pea soup. I gave her back her mailbox key and all her mail I collected for her. Lots of hers in that last sentence!

I worked on editing book all day and into the night.

Wednesday 09- blowing dust and sand with lots of rain in the evening.

I did my stretches. It is way too windy with all kinds of debris aloft in the air and decided to just stay inside today.

I had some problems with my WIFI antenna for the internet. I climbed to the roof and fiddled with it until the little red LED light went out.

I worked on book all day long!

It started raining pretty hard around 9pm and then settled down to a sprinkle for nice soaking.

Thursday 10-  nice but cool day; seems like autumn has finally fell upon us.

Friday 11- a warmer and very nice day.

I did my stretches.

I drove Kelly down to the lower desert for her doctor’s appointment. We left at 1:15pm, stopped to get her cat’s food at the pet store near Vons in Yucca, arrived at the doc’s at 2:30 for a 2:45 appointment where we sat for over an hour waiting. Last visit we waited over three hours; one to two hours is the norm. The nurse practitioners there are very rude and seems they really don’t give a damn not listening to patients’ complaints. Now I’ve had good experiences myself with nurse practitioners that I thought gave more caring and listened to my ills than the doctor, but these nurse practitioners here at this office seem incompetent to me; three times they have filled out the prescriptions wrong causing us much hardship getting Kelly’s meds before she ran out.

After the doctor visit we ate dinner at Carrows Restaurant in Yucca Valley. We made quick stops at Vons and WalMart to pick up a few items and got to Rite Aid a little after 8pm to get her prescriptions filled.

We arrived at her house and offloaded all her groceries and sat around and talked until 12:30.

I got home and was on FaceBook checking up on my friends when I fell asleep at my laptop and didn’t wake up until 11:30am.

Saturday 12- nice day that I remember of it.

I did my stretches, lifted weights, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for a spell.

I updated the Copper Mountain Mesa Website and sent out the Newsletter.

I worked editing the book all day...
