Day 165 - 2

Many folks missing from the regular crowd this morning... wonder if they've gone for the week?

I did 10 minutes on the treadmill and 10 minutes on the rowing machine and the bike. 

Jerome was there and asked after my progress.  I assured him I was doing good and I am.  I feel good and energetic.  I do what I want to do and go where I want to go without the previous fear of getting too worn out to make it home.  And I'm still engaged in the workouts.  It's second nature to me now. 

Wake up, coffee and paper, LJFriends page and a quick check for any flash fire work emails.  Then roll out of bed into my workout clothes and out the door.  It's all autopilot now.

And so it my sticker!!!

Looking up dead people

albadger had a think in his journal this morning about a data base to look and see if someone's dead.  He was kind enough to share the URL http://stevemorse.org/ssdi/ssdi.html.  And I was on hold waiting for a conference call.

My ex husband is, apparently, not dead yet - he'll be 80 in March. 

My Mom who has not been heard from since March of 2005 is also, apparently, not dead yet.

Daddy made the cut. He's dead.

My friend, John, has a name that is way too common and I'm too lazy to dig out his social security number.

I need to think of more people who I really am curious about.

Brownie Bones

Sherry, of Sherry and Lee (neighbors), loves to make brownies.  And she is very good about sharing.  Not long ago I was down there and there was a fresh batch and she gave me one.  I had just seen that new brownie pan that makes all the brownies in the pan edge brownies.  I was trying to explain the pan and I was getting two blank faces.  It took some conversation but finally we figured out that they don't think the edges are the best!  I was shocked.  I thought everyone thought the edges were the best.  You don't see anyone making a brownie pan with NO edges...

Anyway, I just got a note from them and they said new batch of brownies coming this week.  Lee adds 'we'll get the meat and you can have the bones!'

I know about pizza bones but brownie bones is a new one on me.
