Say

Saturday. Lights out by nine-thirty, perhaps too early, as I awoke at least once during the night and then had trouble getting back to sleep, awakening then at six-thirty running a little late. Drove to breakfast, some very light rain on the way, to arrive with the restaurant dark, but the kitchen light on, and so entered, turned the dining area lights on and sat down with the papers.

The Eggs Benedict, country potatoes, fruit cup and coffee, finishing by eight-thirty and heading out the door, the day still overcast driving home, taking another selfie in the buidling lobby and then finishing and posting yesterday's entry before heading to the barber shop for the haircut. A picture on the way home, running into a light shower before reaching the apartment. So there, all tasks for the day completed before eleven, most of the day still ahead.

Later. The weather looked alright and so out the door and over to the lake thinking I'd see if once underway I'd find a picture or two or the energy to head on to the ATM on Lakeshore and maybe get something to eat at the bagel shop, their yogurt parfait coming to mind.

Nothing going on at the lake other than the usual birds and so on to the Lakeshore ATM, stopping at Noah's Bagels to have that yogurt parfait and a small coffee on the way back, finishing up and walking home, a sign in the window of the Dreyer's ice cream shop that said it had closed for good after thirty years at that location. Lots of turnover in the retail spaces in all the neighborhoods.

Evening. The usual nothing on television and so spent the time with the tablet, turning the lights out after nine. Not a bad day, no ocular anythings now for a long while, the attitude lethargic, but good. I'd say.
