Constitutional around Gramercy Park
What used to take me twenty minutes now takes two hours, accompanied by my cane.
A Second Encounter with "Lost Lady"
This time no bus was involved. I reminded her we met yesterday. It didn't seem to register
but she asked where Lexington Avenue was. I took her hand and as we
walked, asked her where she sleeps. Without hesitation she said "I sleep
with Jesus." So we walked on hand in hand to the end of the block. She
asked where we were and I told her Lexington Avenue. Then she wanted to
know where the post office was so we crossed to the other side when she
asked again. I pointed down the block and realized she had no idea where she was going really. I was shaky then, running low on stamina, and so I left her to ply her way 'wherever', and turned back.

Home Again
Teddy sits in the light while I heat up my left leg poultice, and strap on the ice pack for my swollen right ankle. He's considering what it means to be a lost thing I think.
