Day 131



Minnie is distressed by the fireworks and crawled under the covers. She is inconsolable  even with the herbal remedy. Tomorrow will be worse.  I do what I can for her and it’s not enough. At least I’m home for the night noise. I wasted most of yesterday and regretted it in the evening. I wanted activity with others and instead sat, ate, and watched reruns on TV. I did not reach out or find an interesting place to use my energy. 

POH
When Eileen Evermore had her jewelry and art gallery next to the Triplicate office, I would go once a week to sit so she could out and do errands during business hours. Sometimes she would even get a lunch with friends. Her giant German shepherd, Timber, would sit with me in the front window. I had my journal on my lap and would write and watch people. The passing people would often do a double take when I moved or the dog stood up. I guess we looked like art work! If I sat there long enough I would see everyone I know as it is a busy intersection. Friends would come in and visit and that gave me the chance to show them around. I learned a lot about our local artists. It was a pleasant
experience.
