fun fun fun

I'm playing all day.  resting from walking all over yesterday a new record home 8:45 pm.  

I puzzled then soaked, stretched and forgot my towel used face cloth.  I was more tired than I realized.  took longer and worked OK.  slowed me down naturally, peacefully.

Soul On Fire

 true story of John O'Leary.  most excellent.  5 stars.  

someone left 3 mini Ensure chocolate, s

Paul showed up after lunch I gave him his bag he was happy gave me 2.5 oz bag salt vinegar chips.  

white woman came to compete on puzzle.  after half hour she lays piece telling me "it goes over there."  I let it stay there.  I am astounded at the nerve.  I'm neither her mother or her servant.  I should have asked how much she'd pay me.  

I finished quickly w/o her "help".  

I went to Mission library Walter Cariel and college Safeway nothing thinking of central I went to Homestead Safeway corndog $2.49 and chocolate parfait $3.99.  I'm worth it.  Savers I bought roller and tiara $10.  Grocery Outlet Walter Cariel asked if I went to Savers.  when I told him what I bought he said he just donated his mom Leta's 90th tiara.

ready to go-found uncle Dickie dime-paid Bartolo, mailed life

 pain free today.  miracle.  and auntie Tomie.  TY.  

after seniors I went to college Safeway bought 2 clearance salads and realized I forgot to fill water bottles.  considered my options I went back to seniors, filled bottles and ate salad.  Paul Lloyd's friend was there I offered him one.  he accepted.  I opened it for him.  he was Very sad and inebriated.  he sat awhile then mumbled something and I guess went home.  he left his bag of alcohol.  I waited an hour and put it in the trunk so he doesn't get banned.  

home I ate the other salad.

FREE! to be

they loved the way they knew unwilling to learn better.  they chose not to be better.  I know better and do my best to be better, the only way to improve my life.  I've had it hard their way.  they prefer suffering I don't.  they insisted I suffer with them.  no thank you.

I decided to finally watch Life of Pi 2012 an artistic Ang Lee film.  book published 2001.  lots of buzz.  too tense for me then.  I'm catching up at my speed watching TV, listening to Louise, and reading Wodehouse.  

reading Coping With A Difficult Older Parent I realize Walter has become my dad.  

my TMJ and skull are so sore.  and the chrome charger cord has a short.  

I choose Golden Girls.   I never wanted to watch.  I'm suddenly interested.

so far so good

becoming normal takes discipline.  people spend their time escaping reality.  actors are our aristocracy because people choose to avoid their lives instead of making their life more in alignment w/their desires.  for whatever reason fear, ignorance, laziness etc.  I decided to live differently.  my family jealously guarded their complaints punishing me for solutions.

making this the best fourth ever-FREAK OUT-paid Citibank bill $100 July+Aug

an opportunity to make it better than ever.  I think my upset stomach is from mucus.  only mornings from pollen then I get better.  

I can do whatever I want.  seniors is a job of being of service whenever possible.  

tidied an hour.  I used to make it complicated.  now I just use a trash bag.  and it's lovely cool.  

The Great Race 1965 is on.  Aiko traded me for dates w/Roy's friends.  she had all night parties when the parents went to gamble weekends in Tahoe.  I was 13 when she decided to include me to clean up.  after two years he took me to Reno too cheap to get a room and we spent the weekend in the movie theater watching this movie all night.  we drove back the next morning.  they always ignored me I was surprised they were upset, too stupid to figure out it was all Aiko.  

WOW!!  I've survived a lot.  

I couldn't find the CITIBANK bill.  I checked to see if I'd paid NO.  then I calmed myself and remembered to call to find balance.  WHEW!!  the old me.  and I charged my phone.  

paid Citibank on the way to Carl's Cali XL added avocado.
