Last night I went to bed at 10pm, got up once during the night, again around 6am, did my Kegel exercises, fell back asleep, finally waking/getting up at 8am.

Today is another holiday, Sagrado Corazon (Sacred Heart).

I completed my usual routine in Smartfit and noted a number of exercises where I will be increasing the weight in 2 weeks. On the seated leg curl machine I didn’t feel any discomfort over my right knee which means either I’m subconsciously cheating by letting my left leg do most of the work or my tendon/ligament is getting used to the movement. I also didn’t notice any leaking today so that’s another good thing.

Just found out the cruise I thought was leaving from the port Pireaus is leaving from a port named Lavrio which is 48 kilometers away. I’ll be changing our room reservation for Wednesday, September 6^th thru Friday, September 8^th to something closer.

About 2pm (it was 84 degrees on our balcony) I put on my new (bought months ago) H&M stretch shorts with a sleeveless t-shirt and walked to Los Porteños where I had a latte and completed a few chess puzzles. I felt much more comfortable the way I was dressed; I think that might be my new afternoon uniform until we hit the rainy season again.  Often I am the only one at this restaurant in the afternoon but because today is a holiday they were quite busy. At one point I saw a small bird land in front of a door entrance next to me. It looked like a dove and since it didn’t move from there I figured it was a baby. A man came, caught it and put it on a branch of a tree. When I left, I took this quick photo of it

but when it hopped to a different branch further from me I figured it was best to leave it alone.

I returned to the apt and Teresa informed me that Kelly didn’t show up.

Online I booked a haircut with Daniel for Saturday, July 1^st at 9am.

I requested Booking.com to cancel my Wednesday, September 6^th to Friday, September 8^th reservation at Athina Apartments in the Piraeus port area.

I don’t know what I did but I don’t see any of my yahoo emails on my laptop, only my cellphone. ☹

I ordered a fancy set of cookware from Jeannie & Jacob’s registry for their wedding gift, but forgot to sign the card. ☹
