Wednesday and Friday, February 11 and 13, 2009

Wednesday
Today was walking with my senior group.  Since it snowed so much yesterday, I brought my ice cleats with me.  Also, since it takes so much more energy slogging through the snow, I decide to only take the half-walk.  When I get there, all the snow is already cleared away!  Oh, well!

I see Rosemary, and walk with her to the halfway point.  Everyone touches the dirt (!), and then hangs around chatting for a few minutes.  On the way back, Rosemary introduces me to a woman who is in the archeology club.  I ask a lot of questions, and then we got onto other topics.  She is going through a lot of family stress reminiscent of my family ordeals when my Mom was in the nursing home, and all the trouble I had with my brothers.  It brought back bad memories, but I didn't let it get to me.

Thursday
I leave early for my daily walk, and run into Rosemary.  It's always nice walking with her and having a pleasant conversation.  Except, Rosemary walks so much faster than I do, and sometimes I have a hard time walking and talking, cause I can't catch my breath!  It's good for a change, though, and good practice for me.
