Currently Thursdays are
busy for me. I have the weekly Coffee Social followed later in the
day with the reading group out in South Jordan library. Both events
sadly, to some degree, are the high points of my week. So much so
that I think I have a difficult time sleeping Wednesday night with
anticipation of these events. Today I was even more blessed with a
busy Thursday when I was called by my old friend and boss Dave who
was passing through the state going up to visit family and home
stomping grounds Blackfoot Idaho. David's timing was perfect. I have
this huge break from the end of the coffee social to When I have to
travel south to South Jordan in the library. Truth be told, I did
have a difficult time sleeping or should I say going back to sleep
after I woke this morning around 4 AM. I just have to used to the
idea that I need to stay up later so I sleep tonight. In truth I was
going to actually think about laying down for an hour to before the
event at the library but of course that was not to be Dave's coming
to town.
It was great seeing Dave
looked good. I thought they looked much better than last time I saw
him. He was up and had color the cloud of depression that seemed to
hover over him last visit was gone which gave me hope. I'm still so
impressed that he'd been to Europe since last we spoke specifically
France specifically Paris. That would be a great trip. And Paris was
a great trip for David. Dave of course showed me the number of images
Taken during the trip it was great especially the Eiffel Tower. I
Have never really thought about Paris except the last couple years
watching the Bourne movie offerings were much of the film was taken
in Paris or Berlin. And then with Dave going to Europe makes me think
That if you're If ever given the opportunity I would do Paris.
Now bear in mind one of
the other things I had planned to do After coffee social was to
charge the battery on my power chair for an hour or so to make sure I
had ample power to make the trip to South Jordan. I believe I
lamented in the past recently that my batteries do not seem to keep
their charge as they once did which irritates me to no end but I
guess I've had these cores go to in here for now Over two years and
maybe it's time to consider new batteries. Casey my occupational
therapist and I planned this if we get authorization to do the
rehabilitation to my power chair. So now I'm doomed to carry my
battery charger why the chains of Scrooge. This is okay I have
carried the charger before.
By the time I got to the
library I was showing less than half the charge but that it was still
short green in it. But by the time the read a long started The
battery got yellow and that's a good sign. We finished the days
reading and I headed out straightforward the bus stop. The battery
was still somewhat visible but still short yellow by the time I got
the bus stop. Fortunately, this is Route 217 headed north wind starts
immediately in front of my backdoor almost just a matter of going to
the gate and even if the battery went to red I would have more than
enough juice to make it to the apartment– –Which I did the very
social yellow. It was nearly 4 o'clock time for my daily work out on
Saratoga Silver. I work out for an hour and a plug-in as soon as I
got to the Saratoga pretty much the end of a pretty great day. This
so good to see a friend it was so good to see David.
