The gym was crowded this morning, almost off-putting. But the main thing is that I did my exercise class. I was guarding my step and just turned away for a second, only to find another lady about to take it over. Huh! Maddening.
In the afternoon, I baked some chicken breasts (boned, skins on) in some Jamaican jerk sauce. I made a fresh salad, some roasted broccoli, some baba ghanoush eggplant dip, and some rice. Then I peeled a couple of cantaloupes that my mom told me were sweet and in season. She was right. I also peeled some strips of sweet red peppers, mostly for myself as I think it's just me that likes them. Whew! that took at least 2 hours.
K tells me the new Harry Potter movie is opening today.
Here is some interesting news:
He was 85, she was 74. After 54 years of marriage, they decided to end their own lives at a suicide clinic in Zurich. He was almost blind, losing his hearing while she had been given weeks to live, stricken with terminal cancer. ''

There is something about ".....peacefully and under circumstances of their own choosing....." that has an appeal to it. But it's s tough call. I'd like to think I'd be that brave.
I love the idea. I wish I could have that luxury to choose my own passing. I believe it's right that people have that choice.
This is a No-Brainer for me.
If our animals have no quality of life we assist them by euthanasia.
I see no difference with humans.
I wonder when the law will change.
I guess it is down to us to make the change happen.
Regarding lifetime friends I feel with the internet opening up a whole new way of meeting people many more lifetime friends will come into our lives.
Take care mate

The thought of pre-planned suicides is an interesting idea.
One has to wonder if there are other family members involved and if they were consulted. The article doesn't mention that.
But if all these two had was themselves, it seems like the logical choice...
I think it's sad, the story about the couple :(
thanks for your thoughtful comments everyone...
Christine, do you make your own Jamaican jerk sauce? If yes, can you share the recipe?
I can't believe you made baba ghanoush. I love that and would love the recipe as well (especially if it's easy--LOL!).
Japra, here's the simple baba ghanoush recipe I used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRw67fsls7E
I try various bottled jerk sauces, I don't make my own, but I'll put a recipe I have that seems authentic in my next posting. It seems quite easy.
