Wednesday, May 7, 2025

Last night I went to bed at 10pm, got up once during the night (it was still raining), finally waking/getting up at 6:30am.

It’s a dark and gloomy morning but at the moment the sky is just dripping a little.

The plan for today is Teresa will go to her gym class in Mayorca then we’ll meet there for lunch in Crepes & Waffles before she goes to her crafts.

My Amazon Firestick 4K Max has arrived at my brother's house.

By 8:30 it had stopped raining and I left the apt and found the gym a little busier than usual. I completed my workout, today increasing the treadmill for the first time to 16 minutes. By the time I finished my workout, it was pouring outside. I waited inside for the pedestrian light at the stop light to turn green then hustled back to the apt of course I was drenched as I entered the apt. Teresa was still there so I guess the downpour started before she was able to leave for her gym class. I could hear her talking to Esmeralda on her cellphone as I stripped and headed to the shower.

The weather was so cold and depressing I returned to bed and slept for an hour. (I had a dream where I surprisingly met some woman dressed in Chicago Bears clothing.) When I woke up, the rain had stopped but it was still pretty overcast.

Let me set the scene: The owner of the apt below us puts food & water out for the birds on his balcony, at least twice a day. If I lean out over the balcony I can just see part of the plate and bowl of water but from our master bedroom it’s easy to see everything. He even has some type of fruit, can’t tell if its papaya or banana, nailed to the wall for the birds. So, I was leaning out the bedroom window and I saw a small bird at the empty plate fly directly up toward me only turning when it was a foot from my face. The birds are getting to inured (used to) humans.

I left at 1:30 and placed another peanut at the usual tree in the park (Calle la Buena Mesa), noticing several peanut shells at the base. I had a latte in Los Portenos while reading more of my new Kindle book. Another example of birds getting close and begging for food.




I left at 3:30 and moved to Eduardo Madrid bakery. I had a latte there until Teresa arrived at 5:30. She’s working on another bracelet; I thought she had given up on them and was back to purses. She’s planning on selling them in the US through Laura. We shared a chicken sandwich and we each had a latte. That third latte was a mistake as you’ll learn tomorrow.  We left at 6:30 and returned to the apt.

I watched some news, part of The Equalizer 3 and read some in my book before going to bed at 10pm,

 

FUNNY
