Thursday

Didn't get to go back to bed this morning after letting Hiker outside because I had to get up and take my Corolla over to the Toyota dealer for a recall on the car. It was very foggy this morning as I drove over to the dealer and was still overcast and chilly when the customer shuttle brought me home. They said the car should be ready around noon so I just hung out at home with Hiker until they called me. I heard that Northern California might get some rain, but SoCal probably won't. So far we are having a strange spring. It will be in the 80's one day and only in the 60's the next. Got a call from the Toyota dealer around 10:30 that my car was done, so they sent the shuttle to come and get me. Sure glad I didn't have to pay for the recall repair because it would have cost me $276.45. Had something to do with the air bags. Didn't get to see all the Y&R today because the local news broke in to tell that they had found the second of 2 lost hikers in Orange County. I'll have to try to catch the last half of Y&R on Soap.net tonight. Took Hiker for an afternoon walk. It was still a little cloudy but the sun came out and making it a little humid. I really need to stop eating so much. I am starting to get a pot belly again. I had gotten rid of it in 2005 when I lost 50 lbs and then I lost it again when I lost the 25 lbs while Ben was in the hospital and right after he died, but now, I'm eating too much again and gaining weight again.
