Sunday 24- cloudy day.

I did my stretches. I am still sick but feeling better.

I tried to get caught up on some house chores that have went undone for a week.

I mostly watched a few movies “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” subtitles but I don’t mind. I saw it before but liked it so much I’ll probably watch all three of them. I watched two episodes of “Inspector Lynley” (I like Sharon Small) and one episode of “Enterprise”.

Monday 25- sunny but cooler.

I am still sick dang it.

I forgot what I did this day; I found this blank on the Saturday 30th when I do an update. I need to keep better track and write down what I do every day, but then I ought to do a lot of things.

Tuesday 26- very overcast but warm.

I did my stretches, but still feeling ill.

I rode my scooter to collect my mail on Lear Ave but it looks like someone stuck their hand in there to remove anything that was in there because the safety lip was bent really wide... BUMMER... A good friend had sent me a video and now it is gone.

Wednesday 27- cloudy with sprinkles and lite rain.

I did my stretches.

Kelly and I went shopping and to pick up pre-cooked turkey dinner I decided to order last week from Von’s instead of cooking it all day.

Thursday 28- cloudy with some sprinkles here and there.

I did my stretches.

I went over to my good desert friend Kelly’s house to have Thanksgiving dinner. She still found something to cook up besides the pre-cooked dinner (long story). We ended up eating at 11pm; I was very hungry. We did had a great time and watched more episodes of “Merlin”, I am really liking the show.

Friday 29- it rained a small itty bitty teeny tiny weeny bit last night on my way to Kelly’s at 6pm.

I called Bonnie about the sample of a cover she is doing for book two; she is very talented.

Woke up late and cleaned up some around the house before I left to have leftovers from Thanksgiving at Kelly’s. We watched several episodes of “Merlin”.

Saturday 30- sunny and warm.

I did my stretches; can’t wait to get feeling better and going for my runs and doing my exercises again. I guess I needed to rest for a spell and get feeling better.

I just was kicking back around the house catching up on my FaceBook Friends and writing a few things. I started on Christmas cards which is really a thrill... but hey it is once a year and it is nice to touch base with friends and family.

***** Stuff I Wrote this Week******

I don't have pets; I have fur folk who show up from time to time at my doorstep to live with me. I don't go looking for them, they just come into my life and stay for a spell. I treat them as family and not something to be owned or mistreated. They are much more intelligent than some humans give them credit for. They are to be shown the respect and trust that they give to us. I know many of you feel the same as I; this is only for those who have forgotten. ~Robert DeLoyd

There's a big house at the end of the road all painted white and covered in snow. Multicolored Christmas lights hang from the eaves. You can see where the snow has melted around a chimney smoking a gray stream of  fumes from the roof above. The closer we get the smell of burning logs gets bolder and fills the cold air we breathe with the warmth that awaits us inside. A red barn in the back with four feet of snow on the ground barely covers the tractor and other farm equipment lying there. From inside the barn there’s a horse's whinny and the sounds of stirring animals as we approach. This alerts a collie who on guard runs down the road to greet us. It’s not a road to nowhere if you have an imagination.  ~Robert DeLoyd

Pack lite but carry lots of good memories on your journey. ~Robert DeLoyd

Remnants of great love resonates across our minds in waves reflecting voices, touching, feeling, longing for, losing to and winning of. These, our memories left to us, drawn together like multicolored threads woven into a tapestry of our existence, brings a smile, tears of joy to a life lived and a love shared. ~Robert DeLoyd

It has always bugged me how some folks can preach and believe in one thing and then totally turn around and do something different to what they preach and believe in; it's better they be left alone and not to be trusted. ~Robert DeLoyd
