Snow Flurries Today. Yuck!

Got up to cold temps this morning. Noticed some flurries in the air. Here comes winter, much to my dismay!

My friend Phyllis and I met at Plainfield's Rec Center this morning to walk some laps together. I am a new member. She has belonged for several years. There are lots of machines to use, most of which have to do with strength training. I am going more for endurance and cardiac benefits. In any case, we walked almost one-and-a-half miles before I decided I needed to stop. If we can keep up a schedule, this should be very good for me. Judging by the way I felt when we stopped, I got more of a workout today than when in rehab. Hope that's not a bad thing.

My daughter called last evening in distress. She wanted the number of our AAA membership. I asked if she was having trouble and where she was. She had a flat tire and was somewhere in Tennessee, on her way home from Florda! I had no clue. She is so totally sure that I am a bad guy in her life that it must have been difficult for her to call for my help. I gave her the number and called later to see how she was doing. At that time, she was in a Walmart, waiting for the job to be done...and, at my request, she DID call me when she got safely back to Terre Haute, so I could sleep. It wasn't a very good night to be on the road anywhere.

Getting ready for Christmas this year doesn't hold much fascination for me. I'm doing the best I can, under the circumstances. I have some shopping done, but no decorating yet. My radio club's Christmas dinner is tonight. When I get back from that, I will try to do some decorating. The operative word is TRY.

Blessings.
