We were up by about 7:30 a.m., and after breakfast, I did a treadmill session with resistance exercises, as usual. I'm thinking I might add a second treadmill session in the evenings to help knock these three extra pounds off.
Once I was ready for the day and took care of a few household chores, I settled in to (finally!) lose myself reading the narratives and studying the photos in the beautiful National Geographic book that Son and Daughter-in-Law gave me recently. I didn't get very far into the book by lunch, since I spent lots of time absorbing each photo. The photos cover a span of time from the 1800s to the 1990s, and they are remarkable and fascinating.
Mother came over after lunch, but we didn't accomplish much during the afternoon. This morning, she discovered that a large tree limb had snapped on a tree in her front yard, but is not completely broken off...it is sort of just dangling there, one end touching the ground, the other barely attached to the tree. Hubbie will need to prevail upon the young neighbor who lives behind us to bring equipment and help him saw the limb off. We're just glad it didn't land on the roof of Mother's house, or on one of us as we were walking under it.
At the eagle nest: when I checked, the baby was perched close to the edge of the nest, but did not attempt to fly, of course. Soon he (or maybe it's a she?) began fussing with the nesting materials, moving twigs and other stuff here and there, either practicing nest building, or housekeeping, I guess.
After a supper of leftover Spanish rice, coleslaw and green beans, Hubbie and I spent the evening, as usual, watching TV. Tonight's fare was a Lifetime Movie Network movie mystery called, "Blind Obsession." A cop is shot and becomes blind. His orientation and mobility specialist (a woman) becomes obsessed with him to the point of murder.
