Was a crazy day! Rained last night quite a bit. Then people were up at dawn (even though it was Saturday) getting ready for a party in the tiny recreation area "outside my front door."

I did my Qigong, ate breakfast and did a walk (while the sun was breaking through). Then I took off and went to get a new pair of tennis shoes, stopped by library and printed my completed tax forms, and dropped by L's. We walked to Starbucks and I had a chai latte, which was tasty.

We looked in at the new Afgan coffee place that's in midtown. Looks like another good food place. I returned home to find a carpet cleaning rig working on the place below me. The noise from the rig was deafening. It probably added some ambiance to the party, which looked like it was ending about then.

I'd gotten some correspondence from an old friend, Bernie DeKoven. I went to his website (www.deepfun.com) and got hooked into playing with an online puzzle (www.planarity.net). It's a simple puzzle structure with very complex solutions after you get through the first few levels.

Between the latte and the puzzle, I've burnt a few hours. It's fun and challenging!

Tomorrow morning will head to the healing meditation group, in my new tennis shoes. They're like walking on clouds! A big improvement over my old ones with worn down heels. The better to walk with, my dear! Getting late! Will read some from a book of stories I picked up at the library. After the fiesta, I take a siesta!
