I’m still wandering on the “train of thought” route, looking at blips and blops and not trying to make sense of anything. So don’t think you have to make sense either.
Today is both Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Inauguration Day. Much to solemnize. Much to watch on dawn to dusk television. Because of various commitments, such as the dentist, I saw only Beyonce sing the “Star Spangled Banner” and part of President Obama’s second inaugural speech. I’m not sure which hit the better note.
I took a nap, something I’m prone to lately, even if it’s only for sixty minutes. I find it refreshes and makes me want to use the remaining hours in a more productive fashion. As in reconciling our bank statements, paying bills, trying to find out if the cruise we’re taking in ten days has Internet access in the staterooms (So far, the verdict is out.).
I keep on top of my job with Fred Flare, checking company emails regularly day-in and day-out. Even on the days I’m not supposed to work. I guess it’s part of the New Society, the one where we’re connected 24/7 whether we like it or not.
Finally, I made popcorn. I’m in a weight loss club with two other long-time friends and tomorrow is weigh-in day. In fact, every Tuesday is weigh-in day. So popcorn is my go-to dinner on Monday nights. According to the FDA label, a cup of popped popcorn is only 30 calories. Which means a bunch of cups can’t be that much. Wish me luck!
