Oh, yeah, okay. Now I know.

No Mass today.  Go figure.  I certainly hope it wasn't to celebrate a very poor Protestant's life?  I truly hope not.  In any case, I did get into the pool.  I did fairly well, not my best by far, but I plugged what I could.  Toward the end though, I was hardening.  My muscles were becoming solid.  But not in the good way.  It was more like I was turning into stone.  I do not believe I will be able to maintain swimming three days a week, not now, not yet maybe.  I am going to try for Mondays and Fridays though.

After I got out of the pool I was doing... poorly.  I don't mind that, really.  That itself will not keep me from going in.  But there was no amount of time that would have allowed me to be ready for pedaling, either.  Not there, in the gym.  I can't rest, really, in the men's locker or outside.  I'm simply not used to having people all around, coming and going.  And more, I am not sure I should push more and do pedaling, not now, not yet, but for certain.

Even after a couple of hours out of the pool I am still too tight.  If I could afford it, I would get a massage right after I got out of the pool, once a week or once every other week.  I am so very tight, internally, my bones hurt from it.  Could I possibly build that fast?  Is there something else peculiar to heart patients or diabetes that causes problems this way?  That I simply don't know.  I will continue, doing what I can, pushing for more.  What is it, two to three steps forward, one to two steps back?  Which is fine, if that is what I have to do.  I am pleased to be able to even give this a try.  And unless my health or physical ability completely crashes, at this point, this isn't a "try", I am not "planning" on anything, I am simply going forward with this to the best of my ability.

I forgot the refrigerator light, of course.  After I saw Mass was not happening, I headed right back home.  Yeah, yeah, but I really wasn't going to wait until Friday (or even Wednesday as I thought at the time).  I want light when I open up the refrigerator!  Plus, I didn't want to quit on that job.  I wanted it done, just for the purposes of having it done.  Inconvenient?  Sure.  But now it is done.  I also bought hangers and that one stuff D.C. suggested to clean the paint Brush.  I could have swore I had enough hangers, and then some, for my clothes.  Do... women eat those, along with toilet paper?  Or is that what they use to stuff the garbage pails?  Gah! 

I have some visitors coming this afternoon.  I wasn't sure when I would be back, or what I might do.  But being so tired I decided not to stop to see my friend.  I do hope to get there Friday though.  I would like to take a movie, but who knows.  I won't be up to a lot of store shopping, if today was any indication, but if he needs something, I could at least hit one store with or for him.  Ugh!  But I am well and truly shot.

With getting to town this week paired to two days, I will have more time to do a few things.  I need to, again, look for the instructions for the camera I gave my friend.  As well, I would like to reset the mini-computer for his use.  I would also like to put the seedling 'bookcase' together, and arrange things, figure out planting times, and such.  Hmm, I am sure there are some other things I could do, and would like to do, including maybe a little practice brazing to work up to setting up for the hot water heater installation.  That does make me a bit nervous.  On the good side the pipes I will be working with are all exposed and the water shut-off is right near the work.  It would only, mostly, probably, be my ego that was hurt by a failure.  And failures are rather easy to fix, for the most part.

Well, enough for now.  Good day.
