Short Entry with Music

These days I am doing a lot of thinking about various things in my life and it just occurred to me this morning that I am no longer afraid of what people think about me.  {A brief pause here to mention I am listening to "The 59th Bridge St. Song –Feeling Groovy" and humming and smiling all the way through it!} Well, perhaps "afraid" is the wrong word. At this time in my life, I basically don’t care what people think of me. This is a huge change from how I used to be. In the past, I agonized over this. Now, I can’t imagining anything sillier! What does it matter what strangers think of me? Or, actually, most of the people I know. The only person whose opinion I need to be concerned about is Patricia. {The music now is "Slip Slidin’ Away"}

Total change of subject. My plans for the day include a quick trip to the grocery store mostly to buy fruit.  And milk.  And potatoes. And some veggies… Hmmm, maybe I need a list. I am trying to go to the store more frequently so I can avoid a huge number of bags to be carried from the car to my apartment.  {The music is now Art Garfunkel and others singing "Morning Has Broken."}

OK, on with the  day.
