5.009 quiet

Sunday 12/10/2023

Quiet day, which is good as tomorrow is a “full-value day” as Bill Pawek used to say. After watering the plants and doing the puzzle, I drove down to FOPAL to put my shelves in order. I haven’t been doing this lately, tidying up after the first day of a book sale weekend. Some other volunteer goes around doing it, but without any feeling for the subject matter, so just moves books around to make the shelves look balanced.

With that out of the way I had a large cinnamon roll for breakfast and headed home again. During the day I practiced some guitar and fiddled with the 240Z.

Some time ago one of my neighbors tried to get some penpal relations going between CH residents and some students at St. Ignatius HS in the City. I had one note from a Joelle, and replied to it, and then nothing for a long time. But finally the first reply has come just today. And it is very chatty and asks lots of questions about what I had said. What fun, an opportunity to talk about myself. No, I won’t give her the URL to this blog. Hah, if she’s any good she can find it herself, if she thinks of it.

At dinner I sat with Mary R., the person putting together the music show on 12/27 that I have committed to performing in. And I learned the very good news that she wants only two songs from me, not three as I had thought. Keep it under 7 minutes, she says. That’s dandy.
