...the size she wanted 2 B.



She bought some jeans that were much too small—just the size she wanted 2 B. She washed and ironed them and looked at them for 2 years until they would fit.

...he finished his sentence.



So there was a big earthquake & he just sat, meditating a protective shield around him. When the earth quieted down, he finished his sentence.

Now, a real diary...

Free Food Madness



I'm a sinner, eating another free meal like there was no 2morrow. And now I have 2 enter the calories on my iphone. It will collapse under its own weight. (I just entered the meal... was only 388 over for the week... and I have Sunday for redemption.)

ERROR: see drawing for 11/15... not yet done.

Hemingway crawled out of bed at 6 am to write until noon. He was always hung over, but wrote nevertheless.

Why? Why does it get late at night everyday? Why does art wait until I'm yawning? Why? Why?

Shark Eatin' Fish



I saw some kid's drawings and I was so jealous, & then my grandson drew a shark eatin' a fish and I gave up art making (for a few hours).

Good News, Bad News

I made it home with most of my walking route recorded on the map on my iphone. But I couldn't remember how to do a screenshot... and when I figured it out I had lost the map.

Tomorrow is another day.

The .lbs from the hefty bbq went away... now it is a matter of one day at a time.

Or one breathe.

Getting off the Boat in Sausalito



So I'm the person with the umbrella with the three people, getting off the boat in Sausalito.

Calories

So today I splurged and got a spiffy distance app for my iphone ($2.99). It even does a map of your walk... with 4 variations. Unfortunately I messed with my 128 calorie walk before I had a chance to download it for my blog. But tomorrow, I promise, I'll give you a visual.

Tonight going to have a big dinner... so I was super good all day. Salad for lunch. 10 almonds for a snack. Etc.

In the meantime, I've been thinking about an article, "Do Libertarians Believe their own Hype?" (http://tinyurl.com/ydm66fl) and disagreeing with the author believing that they do. Let me know what you think.
