Tuesday, April 13, 2021

Yesterday was recovery day for me, a rainy day that gave me an excuse for not leaving the house except for short walks with Frisco.

I had a nice Duo conversation with Tom in the evening and we talked about his upcoming trip here on Thursday.  While we were chatting, our conversation was interrupted by an Amber Alert announcing a curfew from 7pm until 8am the next morning. After we hung up, I learned that there was another police shooting in the cities yesterday - another young, black man was shot and killed by a female cop in Brooklyn Center. She mistakenly drew her gun instead of a stun gun and realized immediately the severity of her error.  Again, people are protesting and making their statements.

Ben offered to share the Tortilla Soup that he made, so we arranged to meet up for a walk and I brought home soup and several ingredients to add to it - cheese, tortilla chips, cilantro, and avocado.  Tasty stuff!  I sure do enjoy our walks, they give us an opportunity to have some good, one-on-one conversation. Today, we had a bit of sleet and snow flurries - a chilly 37° day. Brrrrrr!
