I pedalled to the markes as my sore foot isn't quite up to par. I almost wiped out on the way when I slid on the ice. Going back home I was really carefull walking the bike over the bricks on Main St. It was cold out when I took my father's dog for a walk. My father is home from the hospital until at least Monday. He checkrd himself out (probably went AWOL) but he's a civillian now so it's OK. I missed him and so did his dog. I'm off to sleep on my couch for the first time in eight days. I think Buddy, my budgie friend, missed me.
