Just 4 Today, I’ll drink my fiber twice (done once), drink 2 liters of water (I’ve drunk about 1/2 liter), walk 5 miles (yesterday – 4.41), NOT eat between meals & NOT take seconds.

The photos out of Southern California are horrific (L.A.Times.) It’s hard to take comfort (although we do — we really do) in the knowledge that some of our friends (catdog) are fine, while we are in doubt over the fate & situation of other friends, like knucklehead.

You’d think the front page of the L.A. Times would say something about those winds.

Just 4 Today, I’ll be praying while I walk (I should probably do that everyday.)

What are you going to do today?

Several people have asked about catdog. She lives in Los Angeles but we weren’t sure if she’s been affected by the fires. So far, her neighborhood is safe. But things are bad in Southern California. The headline in the Los Angeles Times says that 500,000 have been told to evacuate. And an LA Fire Marshall said (on the radio) that because of the winds, no one in Southern California is safe.

The community at DailyKos has some resources — diaries for people in the area needing emergency information — diaries for volunteers (who are desperately needed) — and diaries for those of us who are far away and worried about those in danger. They are all linked from California Wildfires Mothership – Liveblog.

Today I’m praying for the people of Southern California.

Just 4 Today, I’ll drink my fiber twice (done once), drink 2 liters of water (I’ve drunk about 1/2 liter), walk 5 miles (yesterday – .45.  But that’s because spent so much time on our feet looking at stuff at the store), NOT eat between meals & NOT take seconds.
