glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- pure psychic automatism It is 3:10 PM Monday afternoon here in south west Michigan. It is a cloudy partly sunny day. I would not say it is warm, but it is not that cold either. I am tired so this will be short and sweet. Why go into great details when all days are basically the same. This morning I got up at 7:30 AM, I immediately got dressed because I had an appointment to have our car's oil changed at 8 o'clock AM. So I went to that changed oil in car appointment and when I came home Carol suggested we take a drive to Grand Haven and visit their central library used books store Cheap Stacks and then on the way home afterwards stop for lunch at Carver's.
