 Fr 11/24/23- Brewer/ Brandenburgs 

640am (2-B). 930am (2-B). 810pm (2-B). 

Up 540am: Cloudy & breezy with temps only to about 40. Much cooler and the first prediction of snow for Sunday. 

Watched 'AMEND: The Fight For America' (Netflix). The 14th Amendment was passed in 1868 and this is the first time that 'Equality' is mentioned in the Constitution. Dred Scott is negated. Will Smith hosts a discussion on Frederick Douglass and his battle for citizenship to obtain the right of Citizenship for Black Americans. Shut it down half way through the second episode. 

805am: PC is 'Off' and I'm getting ready for Buddy's Office Visit. It's cold enough that I need to warm up the car before leaving. 1) Check his ear; 2) Ask about steroids for vomiting. 

830am- 910am: To Brewer. & home; lost one pound. Steroids once a day and after 5 days every other day. $ 

935am:  FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished 'WHO WE ARE'- A Chronicle of Racism in America' (Netflix)- Civil Rights lawyer Jeffery Robinson talks of the elephant in the room; more of 'AMEND: The Fight For America (Netflix)- as many as 4,000 blacks killed in Tulsa Race Riot. Actually, it was more 'genocide' than 'Riot'.

Weights:  3 sets/ 15 reps 

Reading 'TINSEL' 

***1255pm: A Republic truck picked up the leaf bags from the front lawn. I thought a city truck would do it.

150pm- 250pm: Added more leaves beneath the tulip tree in back & cleaned the area on Westview where the leaf bags were removed. 

Reading 'TINSEL'

410pm: To Brandenburgs. We waited for Jamie to arrive because he was at home fixing their shower. Near the end of the visit we played a game.  My 'word/ phrase' was 'Happy Trails' and I gave the clue of a 'Quicksilver album'. Nobody got it. Fun, but I left at about 715pm so that I could give Buddy his medicine.   

More 'DOWNTON ABBEY' (Amazon Prime). I shut it down 38 minutes into episode #7. 

Tired. Worn Out.

We 8/15/18

We 8/15/18 Up 820am; overcast, clammy, and threatening. Rain predicted all day and tomorrow- none so far; 915am. (All day and barely a sprinkle- it was happening all around us, but nothing here) Watched  'SUSPECT ZERO' (Amazon Prime) Aaron Eckhart/ Ben Kingsley/ Carrie Anne Moss.  Eckhart plays a disgraced FBI agent who is being fed information by a serial killer. Seems to be Ben Kingsley, but he's not the killer, he's an ex-agent who can do 'remote viewing'. Not bad, but close, however excellent and creative charcoal drawings as the 'hints' to Eckhart's character. Another episode of 'I'M DYING UP HERE', and then another 'GLOW'. 250PM- Drove to FitClub West, then after the workout to the County Market on south sixth for beer and some groceries- and a dependable can opener! (PS. This is a really clever design. '3-in-one design'; church key/ tuna opener/ pop top) 45" The Best Octane. 45" Recumbent Bike (b...

Finished 'SIGNS' (Netflix). Clearly the drama hasn't ended, and I hope there will be infinite new seasons. {No such luck. I couldn't find anything about a third season}. This was the quote at the end of the series: "I am the Lord who frustrates the omens of diviners and makes a mockery of magicians, who turns back the wise and turns their knowledge into folly"...Book of Isaiah. ***Phone had to be restarted because I 'was not connected to a network'.  ***925am: 'Diet Smoke' gummy order arrived on the front porch via FedEx; Watermelon/ Acapulco Gold Watched 'HOW TO HAVE SEX' (Netflix). Three high school age (?) girls take a summer holida...
