Tuesday, March 2

We were up around 8 a.m., and I did a treadmill session and resistance exercises after breakfast. Guess tomorrow morning, I'll return to water aerobics (hope the pool won't be too cold).

Mother came over while I was on the treadmill. Once I was ready for the day, we all worked to spruce the house a little for the weekend.

After lunch, Hubbie ran errands, Mother worked puzzle books, and I occupied myself in my office. I received an e-mail from a teacher at a local school...we are working out details for my week-long photography residency there, where I will work with third graders and fifth graders in April.

Then I struggled writing a brief biography, at the request of one of my high school classmates. A committee organizing a May reunion is putting together a booklet of our life journeys as part of the 50-year celebration.

Later, we had a supper of leftovers from Sunday lunch. Mother went home afterwards, and Hubbie and I ran to a grocery store to pick up ten packages of on-sale frozen onion/bell peppers. Back home, we watched a rather long movie called " The Baader Meinhof Complex," a 2008 R-rated (for language and nudity) subtitled film that takes place mainly in Germany. It's a story about students in the 1970s, who according to the product description, decide to fight what they perceive as American Imperialism supported by the German establishment, with the aim of creating a more human society. But as the years roll on, they become terrorists who lose sight of their original goal, and their humanity.
