Dear Diary, I know, how cliche. I usually have a way with words but only in the chaos of my mind. Today I got up and made my daily OCD ritual of list making. You know, Monday: coffee, get ready for work, make lunch, etc. It's my version of ground hog day. Good morning, Punxsutawney Phil. Work is, you know, work, but today Jen and Travis had a lover's quarrel in the stairwell. Apparently, Jen gave Travis an ultimatum about coming clean to the wife.

They even used our church for a scene in the Agatha Christi...

I awoke that day feeling not quite myself, I couldn’t put my finger on it. I didn’t want my usual cup of coffee. But I did retrieve my newspaper from the front walkway, as I bent over, I realized I’m not hurting from my arthritis I suffer from especially the first thing in the morning. I feel great I thought, maybe that’s what that feeling was when I first woke up, I’m renewed? I waved to Mrs. Popik across the street, she mustn’t have seen me for she didn’t wave back. I was going to yell a greeting to her but thought do I really care? N...
