It is a beautiful day, and I have solved my problems.

1965

I got the highest mark in my class on my Geometry test - a 92. I had a 96, but Mr. B found another mistake. The next highest mark was 78 - B. (She's going to be the teacher in Geo. on student-faculty day.)

At rehearsal tonight guess who showed up? V! He was taking pictures for the "Chanticleer", the school newspaper. He was there when I played the piano. I hope he was impressed.

OK, so when I said I was going to "give up" V, I meant I was going to try to stop being so painfully obvious about having a crush on him. We are now at stage two of my non-relationship with him -- the cool, mature approach. Or something like that.

Today I go to the gyno and get off the Pill, after 13 years. It’s about time. I keep wondering what I would have done all those years if I had gotten pregnant. 

1997

I awoke in the middle of the night, worrying about getting things done. Then I got up after the daily poem and did my exercise right away. In doing that, I gave myself the gift of time. If only I could do that more often!

It is a beautiful day, and I have solved my problems.

2023

It is 10:30 a.m. I have been up and dressed since 8:30. Made my very pretty to-do list. Guess which things I have not done yet.

2024

A very spiritual weekend for a change. Saturday I attended a day of rest at our church from 10-3. Meditation, labyrinth walking, singing. I started composing mantra.

I  don’t have forever. I just have now. I don’t have tomorrow. I just have today. Sunday service the next day was playful and pie-full. (People brought and shared pie, anticipating Pi Day.) I visited my friends on the memorial quilts, since it had been a few weeks since I’d attended in person. Hi, Sandy. Hi, Larry. Hi, Janne. Hi, Dean. Hi, Beth. Hi, Jim. Miss you guys.
