Got to Dr. at 7:30 AM this morning for physical. No breakfast, just one expresso and a pot of green tea, no honey or lime.

One of the perks of being of a certain age is discounts. Free parking at St. David's.

Nothing unusual from exam. Blood pressure still down. Gain a couple pounds: italy. Lab test results later.

Then a big omelet at Kerby Lane central at a 15% discount. Age pays again.

Back to studio by 10AM and worked on two paintings.

Started rereading Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood 'cause it's the first book listed as being read on the new schedule for reading group. Have hard copy having read it before. Think I nominated it and definitely voted it high on my list. Ordered five other top books and two others by Simon Schama: Landscape And Memory and The Embarrassment of Riches : An Interpretation of Dutch Culture in the Golden Age Book geek.

Mowed the lawn and the leaves on it.

90º and time for a swim at Barton.

May get back and start a new water color.

Full day, classes and graduate stuff over lunch hours tomorrow.
