I guess most of us suffer from a bit of insomnia now and
then but I have been getting up early also. If I run my errands before 9 a.m. I don't get so hot. I am trying to
walk again and the earlier the better.

Today I went to the grocery store, to Kohls to spend my twenty dollars in Kohls cash which I got for buying Ted two new pairs of jeans and then to the bank. I did well at Kohls getting a Ralph Lauren shirt for Bobby and two designer sweaters for myself. I only had to spend l5.00 of
my own money. Kohls is now opening at eight a. m. to get
early birds into the store.

Ellie and I had a complicated financial transaction and I was able to tend to and then walk in my front door at 9a.m.
I forgot to say that I watered before I went.

Ellie's school in Moore starts August 16 and it is almost upon us. I am looking forward because I have missed them
especially Adrienne. She is letting her hair grow long and
she is getting prettier every day.

Ted has been working in the yard a lot because it is helping him get his strength back. The only thing I
have against exercise is that it requires a lot of work and
is productive only in an esthetic sense.
