Goodbye Doug, We'll miss you


Today was the memorial for Doug. Got to meet his daughter, Emma, who looks so much like my niece it was almost odd. She was very sweet and I was glad to tell her how much I was going to miss her father. The chorus sang "Let the River Run" and "The Prayer" at the service. I had a Bloody Mary in Doug's honor, although I don't care much for tomato juice. It was a very nice tribute to Doug and I'm so glad I was a part of it.
I got home around 1:30 and decided to make some lunch. I ended up dropping a jar of spicy carrot bits on the floor, causing glass to go everywhere. I cleaned it up, and then threw out the carrots 'cause there was no way to be sure that all the glass bits were gone. I hate wasting stuff, especially food.
I have been to the gym in a week, and my stomach is looking the smallest I can remember in recent weeks. Funny how that can work. But I really need to add some muscle to my torso, sometimes I can see what can be and it can be inspiring. Sigh...
I tackled the bump master and was able to get past the 8th one. Other than the base, that's as far as on can go. I guess I'm ready now...
Started chatting with Jed on A4A. He is an interline guy that I know from the counter at work. He recently updated his pictures on A4A and they are quite nice. But already I have a strange feeling about him. Very long delays between mail. Will have to see...
