Today is my "Heart Walk" day for the American Heart Assocation.  I raised over $600 in Gene's memory.  I'm really looking forward to it.  I hope it will encourage me to get back to walking again.  I used to walk everyday, 3 miles a day, but I haven't done that in quite a while.  Besides being good for me physically,  I think right now it would be good for me emotionally, too.  When I walk my mind tends to clear and I feel more relaxed.  Missed another day of work yesterday. My girlfriend came over and spent the afternoon with me.  It made me feel much better.  She has been my angel since Gene's death.  She has been here for me whenever I need her and I feel blessed to call her my friend.
