Muscles are a little tense today. It's surprising how only a 1 mile bike ride and a 5 minute row can introduce muscles that have laid peacefully dormant for months. Jim and I both ate healthy stuff all day. While I did my bike ride and row, Jim went to the gym. He prefers that to the bike and I prefer the bike and rower at home. The gym is full of leering old men and smells funny. The fact that this is a retirement community explains that I suppose. A few women brave the walking tract, but I rarely see one using the other equipment. My plan is to increase my time on the bike and rower by a minute each day until I can do at least 15 minutes on each piece of equipment.
Yesterday was full of laundry and household chores. We either have to be the cleanest or dirtiest people I know. I did 4 loads of laundry and still have two more to do today. Got our Christmas cactus transplanted. Poor thing was so root bound I'm surprised it even lived. In the process I broke off a huge chunk of it. I'll pot that today. A few pieces that the cats broke off a few months ago are doing nicely, so I have hopes for this piece. I need to do some work with our African Violets. They need a deep watering and fertilizing.
Solar installation has been delayed at least a day. It was supposed to be installed today, but has been delayed until Friday. And...wouldn't you know...it's probably going to rain.
To our surprise, Kathy was released from the hospital last night. She called about 5 pm and said they were sending her home in a taxi. I guess the insurance company was not willing to pay for a nursing facility. Had they given us a little notice, we could have driven into Vallejo to get her. She's doing fine. When I talked to her on the phone this morning, she sounded good and Jim is there visiting her now. I'm sure I'll get the full report when he gets home.
Costco is on the schedule for the afternoon...maybe even an early dinner out.
