Sunday morning in New Diary

Didn’t write anything yesterday I had a very off day. I woke up at 12:30 Saturday morning. I couldn’t get back to sleep. Grrr. I was very tired and miserable am0ost all day long. Consequently I didn’t do too much reading. I sat around mg apartment all day feeling like a jerk. I did end up buying two books. I bought War and Remembrance by Herman Wouk and East of Eden by John Steinbeck. Read both of them a long time ago and it will be nice reading them again,

I have not been bothered by arthritis for three or four days. I feel a little stiff in the morning and it is hard to walk around. But I have been pain free It has been a blessing. Life is good.

Had some disturbing news. There was a murder right down the street from where I live. There was some sort of domestic altercation. A man and a woman were arguing. A woman called her husband to break up the fight. When he came to the door he was shot in the chest. He died in the hospital, This was too closer for comfort
