Today was an excellent day for Susan and I. Of course, every weekend is fabulous. Yesterday we were tempted by Catholicism and EWTN, but early this Saturday morning while watching Ghost Whisperer, Susan turned to me on the couch and said that she was inspired by the occult and no longer interested in the "catholic" thing, and I immediately agreed because I was feeling that also, and so we went to Barnes and Nobles and bought a Tarot deck for my Queen and some other "out there" stuff, and we felt this tremendous feeling of liberation for not having to squeeze ourselves into a religious frame of mind that we didn't want to force ourselves into in the first place. I didn't want to pretend that "jesus is lord" and that I should feel some remorse for the pagan self that I am. Susan and I had a wonderful day. Also I should mention that she picked the MOON card in her Tarot deck, which is most auspicious, and I'm hoping that, finally, we WIN the Washington State Lotto drawing tonight!.

Susan and I have had a wonderful--as always--four day weekend. We were able to walk 3 out of the four days. We had to wear yak-tracs on Friday and Saturday, but today the morning temperature was near 40, and we were able to wear tennis shoes. This afternoon we also received via UPS our packages from Weight Watchers. Susan signed up for Weight Watchers online last week and order the scales, and the other great stuff. Tomorrow we will weigh ourselves thereby establishing a baseline.

I am very pleased that I have recovered from the illness that afflicted me last week. Susan had a very good day, also, and I am so pleased about that. We watched a DVD on Thailand that she got from the County Library, and then we continued watching a show that she recorded to the DVR (Dish Network) on Angkor. So beautiful!
