Today just flew by. Medical Appointments. Post Office visit. Drop off the recycling at the center. Return books to the library and get some more out (why do I do that? I review books for heaven sakes, why do I need even more? My life makes no sense.) Stop for coffee. Stop at Home Depot […]
I’d been putting off giving in but last night I had to admit that I had a cold — maybe flu but it feels more like a cold. This morning with a temp in the 100/101 range, I stayed in bed read, napped, and did the alka selzer thing along with orange juice. I feel […]

This morning I came across this article about Honda’s Wearable Walking Device. To use it you sit in the seat, put your feet in the shoes and turn it on. They seem to be marketing it toward factory workers who have to crouch, stand, crouch, over and over. It helps support the wearer and reduces […]
Today is one of those grey, blustery day with occasionally spatters of rain. Mostly it’s wind. I went out to check if we’d gotten any packages because I thought I heard a truck. It wasn’t anywhere near as cold out as I thought from the sound of the wind. Does anyone else associate sounds with […]
