Ten

Wednesday. To sleep soon enough last night to awaken then at five-thirty pretty much for good and so took the blood pressure (which was OK), but decided to put off taking the morning med until later when I'd returned home. Listened to Democracy Now! before getting up to walk to breakfast under clear skies, the weather people saying it was not going to be nearly as warm as it had been yesterday when was well into the mid-eighties. Arrived a little early and settled in at my table. No other customers arrived to sit inside before I'd finished.

The plain waffle with sliced bananas and strawberries, fruit cup and coffee, the weight behaving nicely on the scale this morning, finishing before nine to set out walking home deciding to take fewer pictures after pretty much burning out yesterday and not starting, let alone finishing Tuesday's entry. Tired after getting one of the longest night's rest I've had in a while? Who knows? I was fried.

Home to take the selfie in the lobby and settle in here at the computer to paste together what I could of Monday's entry before posting. Somewhat surprised I've gotten this far this morning without quitting.

You're babbling.

Indeed.

Later. Watched some of the Toronto Blue Jays/Tampa Bay Rays game, the Rays stomping the Blue Jays. Watched the first six episodes of a moderately interesting Netflix series on the tablet. So far it's been “moderately interesting” anyway. Watched the usual news programs and that's been the afternoon. The blood pressure seems to be behaving and I'm clear headed enough to sit down and write this today in the afternoon instead of putting it off until tomorrow.

Evening. Watched an hour of Midsomer Murders at eight. I'd seen it before, but had no idea who'd done it or why and almost stayed up to watch its last thirty minutes to find out, but decided sleep was more important and so to bed, lights out by ten.

The photo up top was taken in 2015 at the ‘Vigil for Mike Brown and All Our Fallen’ with a Nikon D4s mounted with a 70-200mm f 2.8 VR II Nikkor lens.
