Today I left the house early and then ended up having to wait 45 minutes to do the paperwork for the fasting blood work I wanted to get out of the way. By the time I got out of there, I was running late, but grabbed some quick McFill on the way to the post office to get a copy of Tom's CD and copy of Dave Hallowell's "Tom Hall - Musical Life, Musical Community" off to his classmates for their 50th reunion of their Bates College class of '64.

Called my friend and said I'd probably be late, but actually made it there on time. Dove into the T-shirt quilt project that had been on hiatus for 5 years...since Tom's vocal cord cancer diagnosis. Spent a bit of time trying to remember my system for cutting out the squares, but got them all cut out today.

Grocery shopping on the way home.

I'm beat. I have trouble standing for that length of time, even leaning on the work table. Between that and the work I did yesterday, I ache and am physically very very tired. But that's probably good...that much closer to getting into shape.

Retiring now with a book and a cat...and a gin & tonic. I think it will be an early night tonight. Got another jam packed day tomorrow.
