      I had salmon for dinner last night. The last time I made it, it was perfect. Tonight, not so much. I set the toaster oven for twenty minutes and headed for my evening walk. It was more than twenty minutes before I got back. The salmon continued to cook as the oven cooled down. The fish was dry and tasteless.  

     I weighed 146 this morning after scarfing down twenty-two nuggets yesterday. I hoped accounting would help inhibit my urges, but it doesn't work.  

   Unfortunately, I shared some of the defrosted salmon juice with Elsa. I gave her less this time because of the results last time, but I can't resist giving her some because she loves it so much. There were results today, too. She didn't have diarrhea, but I found stains on the sheets on her side of the bed this morning. I think she had gas.  

   I did an online yoga session this morning. I have been doing it more frequently. I signed up for Yoga Go a while ago. The original sessions were much too hard for me. When I scrolled down, I discovered they had easier versions, Chair Yoga and Yoga for Beginners. I have done several chair yoga sessions. I did one today. Anything helps; anything is better than nothing. Just watching a video helps stimulate the muscles. Besides doing an easy one, I could watch one of the more challenging sessions daily.

      I had problems with my printer. It wouldn't print. It said it was offline. I connected it to the Wifi, and it still said it was offline. I called Judy to see if she could print something out for me. She was having the same problem. Brian installed her Internet service as well as mine. Scott and I even tried to hardwire the connection between the printer and the computer. That didn't work, either. Brian tried to fix Judy's but couldn't. He told her she needed a new printer. My printer worked just fine when I took it to Bailey. There's nothing wrong with my printer. Bailey said the problem was we needed to select the correct printer. I may return to Bailey to see what he can do with this problem. 

    I got up-to-date on my updates. This is a rare place to be. I did some house cleaning. Everything was gentle and easy. I did more research on Hawaiikidscan. They link their name with Air Tutoring and with 50can. Air Tutoring pays tutors; 50 Can tutors are volunteers. There was nothing clear about the application process.   Found a number for Air Tutoring. I got a general message. "If you want to work for us, send an email." Nothing about what was supposed to be in that email. Most people would assume that there is an online application. Why did they want an email? I got an acknowledgment email saying they received mine; they would evaluate my credentials and let me know if I qualified. I sent a second email with my resume, the short version. School is over; no one has called to hire me for tutoring. My current clients are taking off for the summer. It doesn't look good.
