Oops, missed a day. Was feeling subdued all day on Thursday, not sure why. Maybe thinking about one of my retiree pals who just died a week ago while traveling. She was such a lively, positive person...it was a shock. And my age...haha, that’s always sobering!
Did my usual zoom Circuit class and the Gentle Stretch. I had my cello lesson yesterday afternoon. I have been practicing a lot, to do justice to the ensemble. Did lots of paperwork chores, took a short neighborhood walk at sunset.
Friday possibilities
—abs & knees✅
—Tap classes ✅✅
—car to shop ✅
—diner breakfast ✅
—pick up new glasses ✅ wore them on a trail walk this afternoon, to start getting used to the new lenses
—grocery run for dinner ✅
—pick up car ✅
—trip planning - started making lists, did a load of laundry
—evening routine ✅
Be well!
Carol

Hi Carol, hope you are ok. Losing a friend is very sad. I made a coconut cake (I wanted to make a German chocolate but I am still learning how to bake so I didn't want to go through the whole cocoa part. However, as I was putting the cakes in the oven my husband said "hey, what's this extra egg out for". Ugh. Cake tasted good but a little dry and crumbly. He said he liked it. However, during dinner he started to choke and got something lodged in his throat. This has happened before because he has a problem with a narrowing of his wind pipe. I thought I was going to lose him, he wasn't breathing. I called 911 but he started to respond so I cancelled the ambulance but it took him another 45 mins to totally get over it all.
Work was busy as always so tonight is just relax, relax, relax.
