Another Cold Shave and Shower

Got a good crisp, fresh reminder of last year's cold swim, shower and shave today. Again there've been problems with the high pressure hot water that feeds the HPER complex, so just like last March, there was an e-mail advisory about no hot water. Today's noon activity was indoor cycling, so I didn't check out the natatorium.

I'll admit I eased my way into the cold shower with a cold water shave. The cold water from the hot water tap wasn't as cold as the cold water from the cold water tap, and after that the shower didn't seem as cold as I remembered it last year.

Questioning the Way Forward

Attended the first 2005 meeting of the Zen Writer's Group and found I'm not alone in finding all the gray weather a bit of a challenge lately. But the fact is I usually get better photos in stormy weather. I know I also heard some great weather-inspired ideas and got some feedback on possible approaches in writing my dad's memoir.

Found while looking for something else: "If it is true that answers describe the present while questions define the future, perhaps we should be more inquisitive."
