I made it back home at who knows what time. It was around 5, I think, but I didn’t really notice. I had to get the car unloaded before dark because my outside light is burned out.

I did all of my exercises except for BodyFlex. I’d failed to take my timer with me so the routine for vision therapy was winging it and watching the clock.

I had a kiwi, some dates, and a banana smoothie for breakfast.

My brother-in-law and two of my sisters met my DIL, my granddaughter, and me at the grocery store on the university campus. My nephew, his wife, and one of their daughters came a little later. My sisters and I were conferring about Mother’s grave stone. We had a hard time finding a spot that was in the sun. The buildings were too cool for comfort so we were outside to get warm.

The local eatery was closing soon and everyone but me was wanting to go in and get something for lunch. I went to the store and got four small bananas. When I got back, everyone was sitting down and some were already chowing down. I peeled the nanners one by one and ate them.

My next to the oldest sister had brought me some things that had belonged to Mother. We transferred them from her car to mine.

Then it was back to the store to get supplies. I bought quite a bit of fresh stuff and they stocked up on fake steak, phony baloney, and not chicken. I’m glad I was already over my addiction to that before I decided to go on the raw food lifestyle.

I took my DIL and my granddaughter back home and loaded the car. I was headed for Wal*Mart next. I got some more fresh stuff and some things for my costume tomorrow.

It was time to head out to the cemetery and then on home.

I was feeling pretty hollow by the time I got here. I got everything into the house and then went into the “cool” room and unpacked the tomatoes I got Friday. I put the box for my office-mate in the car. Then it was time to eat. I killed the first persimmon and took pictures of the process. I won’t take time to post them tonight but I’ll get it done sometime. Next, it was a bowl of tomatoes, then I started in to make my salad. The phone rang and it was my sister wanting my oldest sister’s phone number. I don’t have it written down anywhere (shame on me) since I have it set up with a two number code on OneSuite. I told her that I would have to go online to get it. When I did, I got the BSOD. I called her back and told her to call my DIL and have her look it up on Switchboard. I was still feeling hungry and wasn’t inclined to call her back to see if she had gotten it.

My salad was leaf lettuce, romaine, Boston, parsley, cucumber, onion, avocado, tomato, and lime juice. It was the best salad I’d had for days and I was able to sit down and really enjoy it.

My calorie count for the day was 1325 with 14% fat and 7% protein.

By the way, if anyone wants to comment on anything that I do or say, feel free. There’s a “comment” button at the bottom of each post. There’s a verification process that has to be followed but don’t be put off by it. It’s to keep spammers away.

Pictures tomorrow, I hope! I’ll post them with today’s entry. Good night!
