The Weekend

I finished a book called Shamans of the World . . .  a book from my brother because I have some interest in the field. I then registered it in GOODREADS that I had finished it so now I have read 7 books out of my GOODREADS 79 Book Challenge. I then registered it in Librarything. I also have a small book where I enter the books I read. Title, Author and number of pages. There is some sense of satisfaction in what took a good part of my day. My goal every year is one book more than the previous year.

I unfriended a relative on Facebook because she annoys me. I ignore all her texts and comments on Facebook. But for some reason, I was more than irritated by her Comment: Since when have you been doing this sort of thing . . .  which points to my Candy Crush activity. I have played over 110 levels in 2 weeks . . . pretty much beating all my friends. (I now give away Lives and Moves because I am stuck at a level and someone else might as well enjoy the game.)  It's not a totally random game of luck . . . there's some tactical ways of beating the game but it is sadly addictive and eating into my reading time. But I still was offended by the remark and I unfriended her.

My cousin is one of those boring people who thinks that if you don't eat out at restaurants or see a movie . . . then you yourself have no life. (Which is probably true to 99% of the population.) My method of unwinding is reading, puttering in the garden and now . . .  since I got my IPAD, watching all the episodes of FRINGE.

Another annoying cousin visited us to look at Dad's car . . .  to buy it. 10 year old Honda with 20,000 miles on it. Blue Books says about $7,000 which I think is a marvelous deal since it is in impeccable condition. The house was, as usual, a terrible mess since I have no interest in cleaning. Books scattered everywhere, newspapers on the floor to catch the dog's bounty, old clothes on the couch for the dog's lie-in and more of my clothes draped on chairs.

So I shall now sign off to drink some more pomegranate juice and ride the stationary bike because I would like a decent showing for my Coumadin blood test tomorrow. The clinic opens at 7:00 so I wake up at 5:30am (instead of the usual 4:30am). And I am there by 6:30 because sometimes the nurses mercifully start a little early. I will be probably be eating fish tonight . . . the theory is that pom juice and fish thins the blood.

Ah well . . .
