The morning started out dark, windy and cold. The sky was dark blue to black, clear sky, Northern Star was visible but not the moon. Labrona and her two juvenile rabbits were grazing by the basketball court. As the morning progressed, the dawn sky was filled with red, orange, light blue and dark blue colors. The colors got lighter, the was only a whiff of cloud over the Sierras and clear sky. before the sun rise, the cloud were illuminated with a yellow peach color and the edges were tinted in gold. As the big yellow orange sphere appeared, the colors brighten up, lightened the sky and warmed the air. Finished walking 6 miles at 8:00 AM, in 1 hour 13 minutes and 48 seconds. Average walking times were: 12 minutes and 10 seconds per mile (milla) or 2 minutes and 2 seconds per lap (vuelta). the walk felt good in the cool morning sun.

She walked 7523 steps, 15.5 inches step length and symmetry was 83%. She watched the GSW / Maverick game. She was waiting for my call but I did not, as I was busy working on my ACE Class Report – Stress And Your Body. I was too involved that I forgot to call her. yesterday was the 52nd day she closed the ring on her iPhone. Had a nutty bar, crackers and an apple for snacks. Took a shower at 9:10 AM and changed to BOP uniform. Called Doris at 9:30 AM: Doris is well but did not have a good night rest as she was ruminating because I did not call her last night.

She walked 7523 steps, 15.5 Inches step length and symmetry was 83%. yesterday was the 52 nd consecutive days she closed the ring on the iPhone. The dogs barked all night. I asked Doris to change the battery on the debarker. Francis will help her change it soon. Coleman is painting and remodeling his house, possibly he might sell the house. Doris will work on her new inventory and design for spring. I told her to get some sleep if needed. She will close the ring again today. I told her I will be busy with ACE Classes, GED/ ESL tutoring and my ACE Class report – Stress and Your Body. I told her this report applies to her. I told Doris I will try to call once a day to conserve the telephone minutes and will let her know when I call and if I don’t call by 7:00 PM, then I won’t be calling. I will look forward to her email notifying me that she closed the ring. The dogs are well except they barked all night. I told her I might call tonight. Went to sewing room to repair uniforms.
