Spring 2026

Happy Spring Solstice! White flowering pear trees, yellow daffodils and red tulips greet me here in Denver. Slept well. Did some laundry. Walked to the Rec Center. Temps were hot – 81 degrees. Recumbent bike felt good, but three of my usual machines were not there. I walked home, blogged, had lunch and a lay-down.…

Restless night. Fun day yesterday was probably too busy for me and my limited energy. I did meditation with my Pittsburgh group. Good attendance. I’ll be more regular here since my cleaning people come in the afternoon. Walked to the gym. My toe was very sore, strange, as well as my arthritis. After the recumbent…

Slept well. After early exercises I made meatballs and sauce for dinner tonight. Family recipe — my husband’s mother’s. My family love them. I didn’t need a recipe. I’v made this dish so many times. But it tired me out. I took a rest afterwards. After lunch and lay-down, I walked the neighborhood. Purple plum…

Slept well. After my shake and early exercises, I walked to the Rec Center. Surprise — my son and daughter-in-law were working out there. I did the machines, then the recumbent bike, and walked home. I had lunch and a lay-down. Then had a text from my grandson. If I were interested, he would one…

Happy April Fool’s Day. I remembered as a kid, growing up in a small PA town, my father raised chickens. On April 1, my siblings and I would tell him, first thing in the morning, that the chickens got out. He should go through fake distress, swearing in Polish. We laughed. Slept well. My daughter-in-law…

Slept well. Going over emails, there was one from customer service USPS. I still have not received any forwarded mail. My 2 on-line tries did not work. I called to complain. I took a Lyft to the postoffice, and, as instructed, filled out a forward mail card, gave it to the associate with my ID.…

Happy Easter! I slept in, missed my first church service. Streamed the Pittsburgh service (mostly Bible oriented). I also missed the Denver sermon because they switched to 2 services and streamed only at the first one. I showered and did my usual early morning activities. I dressed for Easter Brunch at the Red Rocks Country…

My alarm went off at 6:30 AM. I did an abbreviated early morning routine so I could log on for my meditation group at 7:30. Attendance was good. I really liked the reading and being with my sangha. Afterwards I showered, thinking I might be going to my son’s house for dinner. I went grocery…

Slept well and late. After my shake and exercises, I did laundry. Then spent time on my hundred e-mails . Plans were to have lunch with my daughter-in-law’s mother, first time this trip. She picked me up in her red BMW at 11:30 AM and we decided to go to our nearby Indian restaurant. Surprise.…
