A month has gone!!! (Sunday 28 February 2010)

Hi everyone,

It's unbelievable that a month has gone by since my last blog entry.

I did manage to get in one nice long bike ride and a couple of precious hours in the hot winter sun before more weeks of rain, rain, rain started.

Things have been very busy while I'm getting control of the new post at the college and doing lots of homework for it in the evenings at home. I've also been working additional hours, as Cathy, one of the other supervisors, is home in Taiwan for vacation. Vacation! - what a nice thought - no chance of that for me in this economy.

A couple of weeks ago I had an enjoyable dinner with my friend Suesan W. and then when she went to Las Vegas to visit family I stopped by her place a couple of days to be company for Bear, her beautiful black cat - even arranging for Bear to send her an email and picture of himself!

Last Saturday I went with my 3 course supervisor friends, Marie H, Christine M. and Joe L., to the Author Services Showcase Theater and watched the audio enactment of L. Ron Hubbard's exciting story, On the Trail of the Red Diamonds! I met up with some other old friends. The four of us then had good eats and a lot of fun afterward too.

I've done my usual shopping trips to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Nature Mart and Vons and
I've done some student tutoring and a stress interview for a friend recently.

Saturday after noon (yesterday) after work I was so tired I didn't do any of the chores I had though I might do, but just had a very mellow time watching a DVD of 3 episodes of the old TV show, The Dukes of Hazard (Duke family from the town of Hazard.) It was useless, senseless and highly enjoyable fun - I don't get much time for that sort of thing.

Today we had a meeting with some of the members of New Era Seniors International to determine or future involvement - there are going to be some changes.

That's about what I can remember of the past month aside from the continuing good communication from all my friends.

I'll write again soon.

Love to all,
Barry
