Election

Sunday. To sleep early enough. I'd had enough time on the tablet and there was nothing I wanted to listen to on the radio and so lights out not long after nine to awaken then at ten minutes to six. Not bad. Took my time getting up, the weight under one-fifty on the scale, the pollution index reading in the one-eighties again and so out the door to drive to breakfast under clear smoke colored skies, arriving five minutes before the first restaurant workers arrived.

The two strips of bacon, scrambled eggs, country potatoes, toast, fruit cup and coffee over the papers for breakfast, the reading not finished until just after nine, the sun bright heading to the car for the drive home. What to do on a Save the Air Day Sunday? Something that doesn't involve inhaling this air while running, but then we're pretty safe from running. Those two years in the army cured us many years ago from doing any running before (or after) breakfast.

Later. A walk over to the lake and back, short enough to not really qualify as a walk, well, exercise, at least. Otherwise tablet and television, not particularly happy with either. Still, it's a Sunday, a day of rest. Or, in this case, restlessness.

Evening. And thus the day has gone, adding this the next morning when I don't quite remember exactly what I did other than retire to bed early, attempt to get interested in one or two things on the tablet and turn the lights out at nine-thirty after listening to a PBS discussion of (what else?) last Tuesday's mid-term election.
