The local tv stations are making the cable company remove the Spokane network tv stations. (Since the local stations are broadcasting on mountain time and the Spokane stations broadcast on pacific time, having both gave us two different times to watch every network show.) (Oh well, once again the lives of human beings are diminished to benefit corporations.)
Another sign of getting older is that my skin is drying out more in the winter. (I will have to start buying skin lotion this year.)
I like getting up early most days. (There isn’t much reason to stay up late. (Someday I will have money for a social life and I will get back to staying up late.))
I had been writing a letter to Carrie since September, and I shipped it out Saturday. (Twas 16 pages.) (Tis nice to be patching up that friendship!) (I talked about the last two years and about finally figuring out my problem and the therapy.) (She perceived me as being lonely, but I don’t experience that much anymore.) (She wants me to start therapy now, but I am still going to wait for money. (When I have had money I did go out, but maybe the money is just an excuse to not start now)) (It sounds like she is really into the idea of becoming a mom. (She will be good at it!))-(I pray everything goes ok!) (Twas weird to hear about sex again! (I tend to forget that part of life exists. (It seems like an alien concept now.))) (She has a new beau. (I am glad she has someone to help her through this time!))
(9pm) Erica stopped by for a bowl and a brew. (Neat!)
I feel good!

(8am) It looks like a beautiful day outside!
(2pm) Time to do the laundry routine again.
I have added an apple to my breakfast routine.
I suppose none of the vegetables I eat have much nutritional value. (I boil everything too long.)
I suppose I should cut the fried chicken from my menu too. (Actually, I am pretty sick of it after all these years, but it’s cheap and easy to cook.)
(10pm) Monica stopped by with some tapes and a list of the music she wants. (Tis nice doing things to brighten the lives of others.)
12-17-89
(Midnite) I am sleepy!
(5pm) Mellow day!
I finished the tapes that Monica wanted and took them down to her. (She had company so I didn’t hang around.)
