Around Hayward

Change before you have to.

Dad went to exercise this morning.  I went to the post office and picked up, "The McDougall Program, 12 Days to Dynamic Health".  Came home and made a salad.  Took dad to Kaiser for his toe.  They scheduled an appointment with the podiatrist for Friday morning to have his nail removed.  It's curved in and ingrown.  She said it would not make him uncomfortable. 

Then we went for lunch at the little chinese restaurant on Industrial - $4.95 - all you can eat buffet.  Wow!  What a spread.  So much food.  All delicious.  The place got packed right after we sat down.  Perfect timing.  We really loved it.  Brought dad home. 

Went to Starbucks and picked up the Burt Bacharach CD with "Alfie" by Barbra Streisand.  They said they redid the same version.  I couldn't honestly tell the difference.  At some point, I'll have to get the original out and this one and compare them.

Went over to Twin Bridges and took a nice long barefoot walk.  Aaaahhhhh.  I do LOVE being barefoot.  Came back to the park.  Turned on the jacuzzi trying to get the jets to work. 

Finally, for the first time, I took the walk over on Industrial where they put in the new flood control.  Great walk.  Could even do it barefoot.  It's asphalt, so maybe not in the hot afternoon sun.  Luigi would really enjoy going with me.  Bill and Sadie were taking a walk there.  Bill said that Maxine fell and broke her hip this morning and the ambulance came and got her.

Tonight, we are going to Carmen Glocksen's memorial.
