Resistance training felt good! Room was a bit overheated but the movement and effort felt good! I went downtown to pick up mail and ended up at the downtown library. I'd not been there in a while. The place has been renovated and the DVDs are on a large open shelf. Got an email from MF up in Washington state. EF her partner has Alzheimer's and is fading. He's lost his voice and is exhibiting signs of dementia. He also was cursed with severe hearing loss (for most of his life) which must now add to his isolation. MF is taking care of him which has to be an enormous task. Blessings of them as they make their way!

Bumped into LS, ex-wife of RS, when I went out for dinner. She is amazingly thin! She's retired from her teaching job and is fending for herself on her SS, etc. I also saw II in the Trader Joe's parking lot. She was in a hurry so we didn't talk. Made me think that all I have to do is park myself in one of the more busy parking lots and I would encounter everyone I know. I came back from dinner and fell asleep for a few hours. I'm getting accustomed to nodding off in the late afternoons. I guess I could have a worse habit! All of the stuff about MF/EF reminded me that I saw a person yesterday who had been coming to classes. She was at the Institute (probably to see a doctor). She looked awful! I almost didn't recognize her. She had lost a lot of weight, seemed really frail, and looked like she may have suffered a fall.

I dreamed last night but nothing stuck onto the dream board. Didn't watch a movie this evening--I napped instead. Have a G&B class tomorrow! And the beat goes on...
