A friend Hoo? Hoo's on first?

Currently 81F as of 2:15 PM PDT here in Gresham. Was 83F
yesterday and stayed sunny all day. But today there are some
clouds, and a sudden shower hit with big drops just as I was
coming over on the bus. But it had stopped by the time I got
off the bus.

Had a good lunch with Kim yesterday. But the Chinese Garden
Buffet should crank up their air conditioner! Gave Kim a cheat
sheet to help her pass the DMV eye exam.

Tried to help her with her new Verizon phone, but that phone is
a pain in the butt!

Like "Hi Hoo Rudy Valley Kim needs glasses.Best she not drive at
night.Cars kill more than guns. Cool and misty rain.Just about
clearing up.Still can't walk without a walker. X-rays show torn
legaments around hip down to knee.Bad twist when I fell.Seeking
good Jewish lawyer. Go figure TreBert


Kim may need glasses, but I'm sure as hell not paying for them! She
is not going to be driving for a long time anyway. No money for a
car. But she want it for ID.

Some puffed rice sheets soaked in corn sugar that Kim gave me set
off a dental emergency yesterday, and kept me home bound! I wasn't
sure if I was going to die from the pain, or from the overdoses of
aspirin I was taking to deal with it! But what choice? Today the
pain is gone and no ill effects except for a slightly swollen jaw!
I'll have to be careful what I eat for a while until the infection
clears.

I noticed the Gresham Farmers' Market has opened outside the library
today! Will soon have farm fresh vegetables again!

ID can be had in many ways.A picture and address.Library card.Bank
card etc.Cool and lots of rain at 1 AM . Still using the
walker.Trebert


Kim could easily get a DMV ID card. But I have been encouraging her to
renew her driver's license while she can, before she ends up in the same
boat I am in, having to go through the compete written and driving test
to get a license! Also she might have to produce more pieces of ID that
she no longer has. She has already had to get a replacement Social
Security card. Nowadays you need an official picture ID card just to
buy cigarettes!

Nice day here with sunshine and scattered clouds. It is 59F as of 1:15
PM PDT here in Gresham. Wind 5 mph out of the north. The gigantic Hill
Church complex next to the library has just let out, and well dressed
people are walking the streets of Gresham. Here at the library it's the
usual motley crew.

AA I had to have van tested by highway trooper.Next a written test to
pass.Next eye test. I had a Ma. drivers lic(up to date) to turn in.I asked
thge head man at DMV why the big hassle?He said we do not like 85 year
olds comining to drive on our free ways. You or Kim will not have the hard
time they gave me. Cold last night now its nice and sunny,but still using
the walker.Tomorrow seeing my heart Dr about that pacemaker. Just think it
might keep my heart beating when I'm long dead.That's scary. Trebert



After a certain age in some states you have to be driving tested every year!
It happened to my long lived great uncles in Wisconsin, until they finally
took away their licenses.

Another nice sunny day here in Gresham. A nice pleasant 67F with clear blue
sky! Breeze out of the northwest at 7 mph. Humidity 37%.

Yeah, in a few years Hagar won't be able to drive his house anymore. He'll
have no way to get to the gubmint cheese distribution site or the free
clinic. His 'rhoids will rage.



He hasn't had that thing down off the blocks in years! That's why he rides his motor scooter.
