Day to day stuff....a memoir without order. |
Whoops, missed a few days. That’s okay. I went to Book Club yesterday and had to take brownies so baking preempted blogging. I have walked at least 30 minutes for 7 days straight now. Yay! Feeling much better. And I am doing some arm and core strengthening exercises, getting ready for kayaking on Newnan’s next month…maybe. Book Club was very enjoyable..again. The Round House by Louise Erdrich was depressing to some but I thought it was interesting (Ojibwa), had characters with depth, an excellent plot and written well. The father reminded me of Atticus. Sallie and another lady brought cookies so we had plenty of snacks. Our membership is up to 31 now with 21 present yesterday. It is such a nice feeling that we all get along so well. We have a T.S. Arthur spinning off the east coast of Florida, expected to turn into a #1 hurricane as it travels northward later in the week. It’s very beautiful here this morning, though, hot but with a nice breeze. There is an equine encephalitis alert here in Alachua County. Mosquitoes are prolific. I use a repellent called “Buzz Away”. The active ingredient is citronella oil, but it is scented with cedarwood, peppermint, and lemongrass. I think it smells good and more importantly, it works for me. I got some wickable clothing for kayaking and I am wearing them for walking…so much cooler, who knew…love it. Not much happening here and I need to send out my critique group update requests so I had better get to it…. until next time...c |
