Friday Early Afternoon:
For years I have seen a gent in his mid-80's riding a mountain bike about town. Our paths finally crossed just now. What a delightful man. He told me of how decades ago he fell twenty feet, broke several vertebra, and was told that he would never walk again. He said that he didn't accept the diagnosis, pulled himself together, and purchased his first bicycle.
"God is good. I've been riding every day since. Most days at least 20 miles."
Never give up! ❤
Saturday:
Stayed in and hid from the 100°F heat, exercised vigorously out of boredom.
Friday Late Afternoon:
For an hour and a half I have been walking about with my fly down. Dang, people, see somethin', say somethin'! 🙄
Sunday Early Afternoon:
I forgot to bring water on my walk in this 90°F heat. I stopped at a gas station for a bottle. Embarrassingly, the two one dollar bills that I gave the cashier were damp. "Ewwww, are you a dancer, he asked?" "Flatterer," I responded.
It went right over his head. 😛
Sunday Late Afternoon:
On my walk home, three different strangers offered me cold water, and gentle warnings about the heat. There is far more goodness than hate in this country regardless of what They want us to believe.
Sunday 8:00p.m.:
It's still 92° and I am afraid if I move I will catch fire. Not really, but it is a great excuse to not do laundry. 😛
