Another day and I'm just exhausted. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't my birthday but the day I turned 74 but you knew that if you'd read yesterday's diet tribe about growing older. But today is not been too bad at all. We didn't do breakfast because we were going to have a steak dinner at some restaurant not far from me easily reachable by bus on Redwood Road. This is to be at 12:00 and so after I was up and ready I had time to kill so I decided I would go a little bit early and get off at Starbucks and have coffee and maybe mess around with one of my sketchbooks if I get that far. The time went a lot quicker than I anticipated at the coffee shop and soon it was time to head over to the steakhouse. J&J were already there when I pulled into the front of the steakhouse they came out and got me and took me in Mark was just getting there as well. They first put us in the waiting room which was really quite a bizarre little place but not big enough for a real waiting room but we got by. Visiting for a little while then it was time for the meal. Else have a difficult time staying in my chair this chair is getting more and more difficult for me to try to live in I just can't seem to get myself straight enough in the chair to be comfortable. Today it felt like I was laying down in my chair trying to feed myself off the table and such. But it was a good meal Jasmine has really taken into taking care of me and I appreciate that a lot. Mark helps a lot too there's always Jackson to do follow-up he does a great job. I of course let them talk me into a giant steak which they paid for so I didn't feel too guilty but still with a lot of money and their meals were a bit more minimal but I think everybody enjoyed the time. Following the steak dinner we all met at my place for cake. I should have gotten some ice cream but I thought maybe they would bring it but they didn't so no ice cream but we had great cake and great milk and great communication it was a good day. Finally the people got out leaving me at the apartment which was great I watched one of the Thor movies wow trying to answer phone calls from family and friends had a great conversation with my friend John Cantrell it was super too old guys talking about the old days nothing's better than that. Then spoke with my daughter for a while that was encouragingly fun too there are other colors that I did not get back to no time and no energy for such a thing but it was a great day for me and my birthday. It was pretty warm outside for February I found the 60° very pleasant if I had to be out in it. I didn't take the bus back I just drove the chair back on the side of the sidewalk and it was all good
