This afternoon, it had looked dark to the west; but so far, it's evening now, the rains haven't visited us like last night.
One of the librarians told me she was on top of Pajarito Mountain yesterday with her Corgi dog when the storm broke. Getting down, amidst hail, thunder and lightning was an adventure.
I went to our dentist in Albuquerque Tuesday. Dentist took x-rays and said there wasn't any cavity or abscess. Digital dental x-rays are neat - very fast, less radiation and can see x-rays immediately! Dentist adjusted night splint so maybe that will help. I really can only chew on my left side and started having some pain on my right side which the dentist theorizes is from clamping down on that side at night.
On way back home, we ate at Buffalo Thunder's Painted Parrot Buffet. Almost from the first bite, my stomach felt bloated and rumbly. Maybe it's a bad idea to steal broccoli from the Asian stir fries, maybe the guacamole, green chile and salsa sundae is a bad idea? Next time we eat there, it's salad and fruit for me.
On Wednesday, I drove spouse up to Pajarito Mountain Ski Area to enjoy the aspen colors. He walked as far as Cañada Bonita meadow and then went back to eat at the café. I continued on to Pipeline Road. Met a puppy on the trail. So adorable! Looked like a black Labrador. I stopped and puppy - name's Molasses - nuzzled between my ankles so I bowed out my legs to let puppy step through!! Owner said everyone loves Molasses!
Walked downtown today. Forgot my umbrella at Metzger's and didn't realize I'd forgotten it until I got to Ashley Pond to feed the ducks and looked at the clouds over the mountains. Ducks didn't seem very hungry. Ravens were feeding on cracked corn at edge of pond.
I'm tired. Woke at 7 am for big tree trip in Valles Caldera National Preserve but it was canceled due to all the rain.
My lower right back was aching on downtown walk today. Still is. Discouraging.
