Wednesday 01- a nice sunny day again.

I did my stretches, lifted weights, yoga, ran up and down the hill carrying 5lbs in each hand, core trainer, and punched the heavybag for five minutes.

My friend Kelly’s dog Taya passed on New Years Eve and she is really distraught so I won’t be going over to celebrate at her house.

I called Friends and Family. I am getting mixed signals from Tucson about the health of a family member and may have to make the trip out there.

Thursday 02- nice day but cold at night.

I did my stretches, yoga, deep knee bends and ran a mile and a half with 1.5lbs around each wrists.

I am still getting mixed signals from Tucson on the health of my biological Dad so I got everything thrown in the car that I may need; I even took a load of dirty laundry with me to wash while I was at it cause I had no clean clothes while I was there.

Friday 03- I woke up at 8am and was on the road to Tucson arriving there six and a half hours later. My brother, who the hospital has a bed for him and lets him stay there, picked me up to take me to see my biological father who is in poor condition at the hospital. He was sleeping and we decided to come back later the next day. We had our traditional hamburgers at Carl’s Jr. and ate most of the ice cream in the fridge at home.

Saturday 04- Kevin picked me up and we went to see Dad at the hospital. He was awake this time and in good humor. Paula and her husband Mark were also there. We spent a few hours talking to Dad and then went down to the basement restaurant for lunch which tasted lousy and was expensive. We went back up to his room to say goodbye. He had a good grip on my hand when we shook hands. I left with Paula and Mark and went to their house for a spell to yammer for a spell and then they drove me home. I was tired and took a nap for an hour or more. Paula called asking if I wanted to have dinner with them and I said Kevin and I had planned to do something. They then called Kevin who would pick me up and take me to some taco joint where we would all meet; it had mighty fine food there!

Kevin took me to the family home where we yapped and ate more ice cream.

I went to sleep at 10pm Az time and awoke at 4am Az time. I had the car already packed and climbed inside to drive the six and a half hours back to my home in the desert. I slept most of the day after eating oatmeal for lunch.

I watched the new season 3 episode 2 of “Sherlock”.....

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

I have drank deeply the whole night sky, taking in all the galaxies, planets and globular clusters; I stand in awe at the edge of infinity within the majestic starry veneer of our Milky Way to become one with the Universe and I have never felt alone since. ~Robert DeLoyd
