Friday

Yesterday, Thanksgiving, Susan and I walked downtown, returning books to the library. However, our main reason for going downtown was to watch the new Twilight movie Breaking Dawn, Part 1, and the AMC movie theater. It was rather loud, but the movie was fabulous. Then we had delicious vegetarian nachos in the food court at Taco Del Mar. We walked home to read in bed and sip white wine. (Mother called on Susan's cell. She was having thanksgiving dinner at her place with Kim, CJ and someone else. She admitted that she was disappointed that her strength was not returning like she'd thought.) We have salad at 3:00 and watched Eclipse. We had a lovely day. The weather, by the way, was in the 40s with moments of blue sky.

Thursday Thanksgiving

We are truly thankful for all that we have, and all that we will have: Increased wealth, restored health and greater happiness.

Tuesday

Yesterday morning we decided to take the #42 bus and when it picked up more passengers at 6th and Adams--mostly of ethnic and loser-types--Susan aptly named it the ghetto bus. We caught the #23 home and got downtown at 5:15. The outbound #42 wasn't scheduled until 5:35. Susan suggested that we walk home, figuring that we would get home earlier. In fact we did: 5:35 PM! Amazing. We jumped on the #2 which left at 5:20; took it up to Deaconess; took the short-cut through the Medical Building and it was brilliant. Anyway, this morning Susan declared to me that she felt great; had good sleep and it's raining and 38 degrees, so she can drive to work as she hoped, and that way go to the store on her lunch. I really feel that we will be winning tonight.

Monday's Card-of-the-Day

Susan's Four of Pentacles. (As if my magic....)
Daniel's Queen of Wands. Susan is a "a strong, sensual woman...she knows what she wants."
Susan is in--predictably--a sour mood. She didn't get enough sleep; her weight was up, the weather is "fucked," and she has to go back to work. It's 29 but there is a large light blue blob coming towards Spokane. But Tuesday and Wednesday look as if she could drive: the low will be above freezing.

Sunday's Card-of-the-Day

Susan's Page of Pentacles
Daniel's The Tower
Susan has gotten over her cold. 'Tis a good thing: doesn't want to be sick tomorrow. We have a little snow on the ground and the temperature is around 25. Yesterday Susan started off making cookies but the the dough when mixed looked more like cake batter, so she made a cake from it, and it was really good. She also made a loaf without recipes and it turned out fantastic, and most delicious. We juiced in the morning and will again this morning. We went for a walk to Rosauer's on 14th yesterday. Wore Yak-Traks and didn't fall down, thank goodness. We are seriously into fashion. Watched Sense and Sensibility last night. 'Twas a wonderful movie.

Thursday's Card-of-the-Day

Susan's Knight of Wands
Daniel's Ten of Cups
Susan's cold has set in. Yesterday afternoon she was feeling pretty good and considered that she might go to work, but this morning she sounds and feels like she definitely has a cold. She will be staying home again, and I am happy about that. It's my four hour day so I will be home sooner at about 1:30.

Wednesday's Card-of-the-Day

Susan's Ten of Wands
Daniel's The Hermit
Susan's has come down with a cold and is staying home. It's 17 degrees and it predicted to snow today and then rain in the afternoon.
