POST 687: 09/04/12; SALVO - COLUMBIA, N.C.

Finally, I am back up. My computer has been down for over two weeks. Sent it to my personal guru in Belligham for rework. All seems to be OK now, but was loaded with virus, requiring considerable updating.

Before I get started on updating my activities on OBX (Outer Banks), I wish to make a couple comments about my health. No, no big problem; however, I have been increasingly bothered by arthritis in both hands the past few weeks. I am devoted to better health through stimulation of my Lymphatic System...in my opinion, second only to the blood circulatory system for a healthy body. I am thoroughly convinced that my walking has brought my Lymphatic System to the peak of functioning. I therefore decided to use Reflexology on my increasingly arthritic fingers; i.e., message of each finger/thumb for 1/2 hour each day. Would you believe...tho the pain has not fully gone away, full functioning has returned.

I have been quite reluctant to pursue discussion on Politics, Religion, or health matters. I will, however, be discussing the Lymphatic System in the future.

My new home is coming along quite nicely. Pictures are hung; a daily routine is coming along.

Primary to my activities is the Food Bank. The building has been emptied out, bombed to rid creepy crawlies, scrubbed with disinfectant, painted, and fully cleaned daily. Some folks think it looks rather nice.

Pastor Steve's food bank program is a bit complicated...more so than I had been previously introduced to. Still have much to discover in obtaining food items from various sources. Summer is coming to a close out here on OBX, which, I am informed, will result in a significant increase in food bank customers...this because work opportunities disappear with vacationers, reducing $$ incomes. Will, therefore, be increasingly busy.

In the interim, I have taken it upon myself to pursue gardening for Pastor Steve's home, in addition to sprucing up some properties of my landlady, Linda.

Many local residents are still without permanent homes, having lost theirs to Hurricane Irene.

Drove to Columbia, N.C., where I spent three restful nights visiting with Karen, Craig, and the boys - and some friends.

My camera battery charger has been misplaced the last three weeks. I do have some photographs which will be uploaded in my next blog.

The new trailer I used to move from Bellingham has been sold. Now have only the MPV and Motorcycle to get around...both of which are working just fine.

I have not been walking as I wish...only a couple times a week, which has resulted in moving back into size 38 waist.

Have not yet gone to the beach, but was invited to an evening of fishing from the Rodanthe Pier, where I caught a smallish Blue Fish. Have been an avid fisherman most of my life, so look forward to drowning some more bait. The Atlantic Ocean beaches are only a block away from my home.

In two weeks, my 60th High School Reunion is on in Kennewick, Washington. I am vacillating as to whether I should fly out to attend. Must decide within the next couple days. I would very much like to be there.

Does anyone know where the Planet NIBIRU is at the moment ?
