In the 1990s when I was on the park board (for six years) we fought to keep pools open, especially in the underserved neighborhoods. Today all but one of those pools aren't just closed, they're bulldozed away. Heartbreaking.

I have to look into what classes will be offered. To start, I'll just swim a few laps.

Waiting on the return of my son and his partner from a wedding reception they came down for (a bit of a reunion with high school friends also). I'm headed to bed once the turkey is in the brine, and expect a full day of activity tomorrow. The ex came over today and we made pie crust for the two pies he'll bake tomorrow morning to bring over for our dinner. I made the first one, showing how, then he made the second one, getting his hands on the dough to see how it feels just as it comes together. He took home two waxed paper parcels to roll out.

Cat sitting is finished for now, it was nice to earn the cash. I am usually pretty good at making any particular trip out add up to several stops to make the gas used go farther, but not always this week with coming home to do stuff with family. I was last to the gym on Tuesday. I need to do my exercises at home for now, in the mornings once I'm up and before I'm busy or too tired later on.
