The morning started out with the dawn sky filled with dark clouds in the Eastern sky over the Sierras, and the Western sky. But the mid sky was clear and the half moon was bright. There were a few rabbits grazing on the field and Lebron was grazing by the basketball court. As the morning progressed, the clouds in the Eastern sky has its top illuminated in cream color whereas in the Western Sky, the underside of the clouds were lit up in yellow peach colors, the sky was blue and the half moon slowly faded away. All the rabbits in the field were gone, but Lebron was still grazing near the basketball court. The cloud started to move in and it started to drizzle. Went to Spanish lessons from 7:30 – 9:00 AM. The sky cleared up and I was able to finish my 6 miles walk at 9:30 AM, in 1 hour 10 minutes and 50 seconds.

She closed the ring yesterday for the 40th consecutive days. She walked 7246 steps, 14.9 Inches step length and symmetry was 86%. She felt good and it is a routine for her to close the ring. She will increase the threshold to 7500 steps to close the ring in a few weeks. She still feels wobbly when she tries to walk in a straight line. I recommended that she use her quad cane to brace herself if she needs to. Kein called and his cholesterol was high as he has been on a carnivorous diet of red meat. Th doctor asked him to drink more water to compensate for lack of water intake by avoiding vegetables. I 880 was closed due to Diesel truck overturned.
