Another Wonder Woman!

On my morning walk today, I met another Wonder Woman; her name is Kavita. She lives near the bottom of Wilhelmina Rise and walks up to the top, then back down again! Sometimes she takes a different loop off Sierra Drive; today she said she went up Lurline, she highly recommends it as a nice scenic walk that is not too steep. Lurline is the street I almost ran in to the bus on; it is close by. Perhaps, as I get stronger I will try that. Although I am thinking I might want to start with Maunalani Circle first since the parking lot enters on to it & if I get too tired it's mainly downhill from the circle to the parking lot. For Lurline I would have to walk back up a hill.

My phone is still dying; it is still at 1%. This morning I got an e-mail saying the replacement phone was shipped via FedEx; I started up the tracking app. This replacement phone is coming from Fort Worth, TX, & is scheduled to arrive by Monday at 5 pm. I have signed up to get status updates via e-mail; hopefully it will be like the Columbia PFG shirt & arrive earlier than originally expected.

Lunch today was Pork yakisoba, Seasoned broccoli florets, Tossed salad, Fresh pineapple, & Potato chowder. I have not yet figured out the difference between the "tossed" salad & the "green" salad; they appear to be the same to me.

I did a walk at mid-morning when Dad was at the Namaste massage and then one in the afternoon at shift change. The afternoon walk was the best! I felt very energized when I ended the walk, and very strong. I did not feel sluggish at all. I will have to see if this continues to be the pattern. When I can feel energized at the end of every walk that is where I want to be with my weight loss program. 

I have not exchanged the new laptop yet; I have 14 days from the date of purchase to do that. So I am waiting until this Sunday when Kahala Mall has a special Hawaiian Miles event; for each dollar purchased you get 5 times miles added to your Hawaiian Miles account, up to $400 dollars in purchases. The new laptop will meet the minimum purchase amount but also exceed the maximum; might as well get some airmiles while I am upgrading the new laptop.

Lois, Jackie, & I went to Restaurant XO for dinner before we went to see the play, "The Princess & the Iso Peanut". The play is a retelling of the well known fairy tale "The Princess & the Pea" with local overtones & is hilarious.  It would not be understood elsewhere because of the use of pidgin English. Both dinner and the play were very enjoyable.

When we had dinner with Sheryl & Randy, he was telling us about his vintage Corvette that he takes to car shows. Tonight Sheryl sent me some photos of Randy's car.
