old age is a ceremony of losses

It is in the flow here in West Michigan 5:58 PM Saturday early evening. I stopped watching the Northwestern & Michigan college football game because it is certain that Michigan will win. I came down here in the lower level to write a few words in my online journals before this day comes to a close.

My wife and I are still very sick, but hanging in there.

This morning I volunteered at the Herrick District Public Library used books store from 10 AM till 1 PM. When I got home Carol was doing house work and had a college football game on the TV. We have been watching college football all afternoon.

Today at the library book nook I read when not helping people a book titled, "Essays After Eighty" by Donald Hall. I recently was reading Donald Hall's book titled, "Unpacking The Boxes: A Memoir of a Life in Poetry".

There is not much else to write this evening. I will close to cough and wait for Sunday to come. There is no way of escape.
