Beautiful tonight

 

Willard strollers

Probably 13 or 14 years since I went to SMCC or Willard Beach. So beautiful, I forgot and so close to the whole harbor unlike the Portland side.  We talked to a lovely lady and her tiny frail 18 year-old doodle extensively while I walked to the beach. I could not get down on the beach in a longer. The rocks are too treacherous, and the path I remembered was blocked. A very fine evening, all in all  

  I and I watched a terrific South Korean film til late in the day, “No Choice”. And I mentioned another called “Parasite” to get on demand before he leaves if we can.  I learned a lot from people, especially our children. 

Hey! This isn’t right!

Classic. See the headlight?

Good God

Live music. How rare

Thank you. But how awful to make an internet meds and waste countless hours fretting it. Pleasant though to go to Wbk Connect in cool evening shade with I and A and Red. We shared a tasty quesadilla as well as the

Vendors: flea market

Crabby

Unpleasant dreams every morning, dammit. Stress and anger apparently 

Lobster role today?

 

Yes indeed. And fried clams (mine)

A good day yesterday, all in all. I walk into town for lunch at Don’s  See throw past him happily talking on his phone  I didn’t see it so I don’t care  

  Pearls before Swine comic strip has been right on target regarding my mood lately: today Wise Ass on the hill Answers Rat’s question, what is the key to contentment?   Realizing that you can’t change other people. No, what are you gonna do?  Still try to change other people. Not sure why I do this  Good advice for me

    Monday just as appropriate for me:

Psych soc worker today

Monday sleepyhead

Not in a good mood so that might be a good mood to see this person in; woke up after 3 1/2 hours with CPAP and 4:40; nice back rub from A, but feel tired even though back to sleep till 7:30 from about 6:15; no exercise at all; beautiful day. I don’t like being responsible, in charge, denying that I am when I take it on intentionally.  Intentional suffering. Always making small plans and anticipating their outcomes.

I like the colors in these pics

First day of summer

Are power lines photogenic?

I read again, hedge knight, book 3.  Doctor appointment, nothing new. Goodwill bins visit first time, don’t like them; Gorham trail walk. L visit;  I participated so finely all day. Activities felt joyful, hopeful. 

Watched tv, first episode of house of dragon, with much enjoyment. 

  Just took a tick off Red;  showed  I the process  

I’d say yes

Father’s Day

 

Man at work

La la la

Another fine day, TYJ

 

Red on the trail, by I today

Didn’t seem to start out that way. Grocery shopping and the old folks crashed and burn for several hours in the early afternoon  I was bored out of his wits, I think, so I  him out for a downtown walk with three assignments: Take pics; Make eye contact and talk to somebody; ponder while walking, What do I want to do with my life?

    Got back just as Red and I were heading to schoolyard, so I asked him to drive us. We walked the short  fave Sac trail and encountered a fine young man with a skateboard he greeted me pleasantly. Back in the parking lot, he came over to speak and I got  out of the car and amiably joined the conversation. I love the smile for two young men  And the Lively, discussion of schools and film and theater. Very much hope to encounter B again.

Excellent weather

Red lounging around the corner today

Yesterday 

I snapping

A few more pics. I’m tired. Stormy weather yesterday sunny and windy today both beautiful days

     I feel like I am turning myself inside out and doing the same to I and the rest of the family. Planning and supervising daily events. Spending money 💰 more than freely, maybe foolishly ttbut not caring. I’m tired and and too much. I and Red seem so too. What am I trying to accomplish this month, with these people, my family?  I can’t name it. It doesn’t feel peaceful or internal or godly or maybe even goodly. Am I expecting something in return?  External considering or mistaking internal considering for that?

No more beans

 

Grandson’s photo yesterday across the bay

We walked back bay yesterday and this is ian’s picture of the new construction on the old B&M baked beans site. I wonder where they make that product now

Good Wednesday night webinar and some good feedback by email regarding my response to Stephen. The anxiety is going away today.

S got back safely from her dental appointment. Her poor mouth is full of silver stitches, which have to come out on -1.  Poor girl or maybe not so much since we have dental work that saves teeth
