7:01 |
I was up at 6:20, to a gray foggy morning, a lack of clarity, as all is black and white. It's 61º and we should have a nice couple of days, perhaps some rain on Sunday. Like most of recent week mornings, there's nothing stirring on the lake other than a few seagulls.

Kayak Morning |
Thursday went quickly, too quickly, like this summer, the past eight years of retirement. I started the day with a short, quick paddle because of breakfast at 8:00 with my friends. The Bemus Point Inn is a popular place and I could hardly find a place to park. I was home just after 9:00, in time to finish the blog and get ready for yoga. Class on Thursday was at 10:00, with a bit different emphasis, the neck, arms and finally, the back. I then stopped at Wegman's to pick up a few things; Evie forgot to update her Wegman's list, so I ended up buying things from last week's list. Idiot. When I got home, Evie was tearing apart her clothes closet, mine as well, as we are going to do a 'big ditch' of clothes we have not worn in years. It's going to be hard to get rid of my 15-year-old tee shirts. Why is it so hard to get rid of things of little value or use?

A Profusion Of Dahlias |
Evie had a hair appointment at 1:00 but had enough time to make me a couple of avocado and tomato sandwiches on Pepperidge Farm Bread. Yum. And I started an Australian series called THE CODE on Netflix and I like it so far. I then had the house to myself for a few hours and wasted it, as usual, reading and napping. Finally, just before Evie returned, I put on my hiking boots and pants and took a walk through the Woodlawn/Victoria woods for the first time in months. The path was overgrown as no one else seems to have been on it as well so I will have to take my weed wacker up there and clear parts. The deadfall, however, will need a chainsaw otherwise we will not be able to cross-country ski the path this winter.

Pretty In Pink |
About 6:00 we relaxed with drinks and appetizers on the front porch for a good hour. I made myself a bloody mary and Evie had a drink our Turkish friend Hasan made for us, Martini and Rossi's Bianco with seltzer water and a slice of lemon. For dinner, I had picked up a rotisserie chicken, so we had that with red potatoes and a salad for dinner. And we had enough time to watch two more episodes of The Handmaid's Tale and have one to go. I finished my Longmire and started the newest Daniel Silva novel, THE OTHER WOMAN. It's nice to always have a new book to read.
