six months in the Sandwich Islands
It is in the blood flow 1:29 PM Monday afternoon. The sky has turned gray this afternoon.
I did find the courage to leave my hermit hut this morning. I got coffee beans and then took Rudy for a walk at Kollen Park. On the way home I stopped at our Credit Union to get money and then visited two thrift stores. I found these used books this morning to throw on the heap-
"Washington" a memoir by Meg Greenfield
"Death In Belmont" true crime journalism by Sebastian Junger
"Reappraisals: Reflections Of The Forgotten Twentieth Century" essays by Tony Judt
"Six Months in the Sandwich Islands" a Victorian travel book by Isabella L. Bird (first printing 1881)
"Franklin & Lucy: President Roosevelt, Mrs. Rutherfurd, and the Other Remarkable Women in His Life" biography by Joseph E. Persico
When I got home I ate lunch, messed with our main computer and wrote in my paper diary. I have been reading this afternoon "Laura Worholic or, The Sexual Intellectual" by Alexander Theroux.
Before I left the house this morning I called Carol to see how her night went taking care of little Josie our granddaughter.
Well not much else to report so I will close to drift aimlessly in the flow of divine Providence.
