Well I had to go buy my nephew another book bag for school. I was spending some time with him and didn’t pay attention to making sure he grabbed his stuff off of the back of the truck. It was gone by the time we got to where we were going and we couldn’t find it when we drove back looking for it. Fortunately there wasn’t much in it at the time. He had his DS and phone in his pockets. Thank god. Those are expensive to replace.

Yoga
My wife took up yoga not that long ago and has drafted me into it as well. I had to buy some yoga supplies at yogadirect.com for the classes we will be taking. I am sure this will be difficult for me in the beginning, but as I loosen up, I will definitely be more limber. She thought I would enjoy it since I like to meditate. I hope that she is right.
My reads
So a few years ago, I decided that I needed to read as many of the “classics” as possible. Not as easy as you might think since some of those authors can be very tedious. ( Charles Dickens ) Too much detail can be a definite drawback. However, while at the library, I decided that I needed to get to work with it and checked out Bronte’s Jane Eyre. So this is my next adventure in literature ( not my usual style) , before I get to the Koontz, Conroy and Michener books I also checked out.
Thinking about some Shakespeare next…( although I have read a few of his plays) We shall see.

Sea slug
Hawaiian Sea Slug
It is a species of sea slug that grows to around 35 mm.
They float partially by means of an air bubble, which they swallow and store in their gastric cavity. They also have a rather unique defence mechanism – they store the nematocysts produced by jellyfish (their prey) in their own tissues to protect against predators. They are found in the waters off of the Big Island, Maui, Oahu and Kauai. They are rarely found on shore unless during periods of on-shore winds which bring them (and their prey) into coastal waters. Neat huh?
