Tuesday, February 7
It is nice to have the daylight hours getting longer. I might make it to spring.
I didn't hear the girls until 7:00 this a.m. and I don't think Jim even heard them at that time. Of course after their trip outside they joined us on the bed - then Jim knew they were alive. He planned on getting up in a few minutes and the next thing I knew - it was 8:45 and he was just waking up again.
Jim's doctor appointment was to be at 11:00 this a.m., but we had a call a little before 10:00 wondering if he wanted to come on in - which of course was agreeable. Afterwards, we did a few errands. We ended up having sandwiches at the little restaurant at the bowling alley (will have soup for supper as a result).
Jim has been on the bicycle (off and on) much of the rest of the day. I think he is spending too much time, but he is happy with the endurance he is building up - even at the expense of being exhausted. I spent about 9 minutes on it last night and evidently over did the arm work as my arms/shoulders are tender today. I'll get on this evening, but do a little less arm work.
There were five of us at dessert this afternoon - Helen, Mary W., Peggy, Sue Jones, and yours truly. Of course we had a lot to visit about and the time went much too swiftly.
Jim has breakfast with the "old fogies" as well as the second group in the morning. I don't have much planned for Wednesday, but should set aside some time to do some vacuuming and dusting.
Be safe.

Arm work? Barbara, you're supposed to put your FEET on the pedals.
An occasional good-natured "barb" added to the mix really spices your blog, Barbara. Good one, Margaret! By the way, Barbara, I know that the "old fogies" expression, which you use with such relish, renders a major writer's rush; but some in your audience find the characterization deeply offensive--and maybe a little redundant. Save "old fogies" and "geezers" for yucks at breakfast with the "girls."

P.S. I hope that you know that I'm kidding.
