Sunday 01- mostly a cloudy day.

Lite exercises; I did my stretches, lifted weights, yoga, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for two minutes.

Worked on Christmas cards getting a bunch of them done.

I went for a short evening walk.

Practiced my guitar.

Monday 02- clouds here and there.

Lite exercises; I did my stretches, lifted weights, yoga, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for two minutes.

I drove the scooter to the mirror house and took some pictures. On the front of the house some of the mirrors have fallen off, but I think it was caused by some bad weather we've had. I almost feel like going over there to glue them back on, but I'd want permission from the artist first. They have a facebook page I left a message there https://www.facebook.com/events/664610246897445/ and you can also see its webpage and videos here: http://royaleprojects.com/lucid-stead The videos on the website are pretty cool to watch!

Worked on more Christmas cards.

I went for a short walk.

There was a planned power outage by Edison from 8pm to 8am affecting 11,000 customers and Kelly didn’t know and called to tell me her electric was out. I took her some candles and one of my Chromebooks that connects to the internet. The power came back up around 3am.

Tuesday 03- nice sunny day outside.

I did my stretches.

I tried to start the Harley these last couple of days but she won’t go. I guess I’ll dig into her to and have a look-see when it gets warmer.

I drove the Cougar down to get my mail at the Border Ave mailbox.

I went for a short walk.

Wednesday 04- very windy day.

I did my stretches. It is too windy to go exercise outside.

Mostly stayed inside to clean up the place a little and cleaned out the ashes from the wood stove. I tried to fix the controls on the electric blanket that failed yesterday. A resistor had come unsoldered and I soldered it back on. I found out that the resistor get really hot and the controller starts blinking and shuts down. Nothing much else I can do to fix it.

Thursday 05- dang cold today!

Lite exercises; I did my stretches, lifted weights, yoga, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for two minutes.

UPS delivered my Christmas Egg from Judy Jackson! The egg is really pretty and hangs from a golden holder. Thanks Judy!

Went for a short evening walk.

Friday 06- colder with clouds and wind.

I did my stretches.

My cement pond froze this morning, so I declare it to be officially winter.

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

I messed around with my computers and wrote more Christmas cards.

Saturday 07- colder still with a slim chance of snow. No snow, but it could it was so cold.

I did my stretches.

Sherry came by for a spell. We yapped about this and that and she brought me some lemon pudding cups.

It never got much over 40 degrees so I just stayed inside and messed around fixing a door that doesn’t shut right and a shelf that fell out of the wall because a screw I used when I first put it in missed the stud.

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

Sometimes I lose myself in myself to find a deeper meaning and I think I am a better person for it when I emerge <3

Dark skies are swollen heavy and thick, the storm approaches mighty quick, over steep waves our little boat must plow, beyond its crest bursts our bow, over the next wave and then the next, water floods heavy across her decks, our little boat shudders, sways and rolls, must right itself before she goes, to drift down deep into the sea’s murky depths, or sail further on to future quests.

Yes, we stumble, we fall, we laugh and make peace with ourselves and continue on with our journey through life's little obstacles. ~Robert DeLoyd
