The weather has been mostly warm this week. It even got hot in the car one day! I moved the car to a shadier part of the parking lot. Rich was out of town last Thursday – the weekend but he got home in time for supper Monday night. Our favorite diner had Mahi Mahi… Continue reading

The problem with a Full Time Job (especially one outside the house) is that there's so little time left over for Real Life. Sigh. I make myself little notes throughout the day of things I want to remember to do that evening (or some evening) or the coming weekend. Then, when I get home, none… Continue reading

Rich has been out of town for much of this week, first visiting friends and then visiting his Dad. So the cats and I have been on our own. Much reading has been done along with much napping and cat snuggling. The weather has been sunny and warm in the middle of the day, bracketed… Continue reading

I like the Job. If I must work outside the house, this is a good job to have. Still, I'm happy to see Friday afternoon roll around! Time for myself is very important to my sanity and stability. Continue reading

We got up Monday morning and went down to Joes for breakfast, then to CitiBank (where I waited in line for 15 minutes and then took another 15 getting a bank check). Then over to Melody Toyota where Alex the salesman had put a big bow on our new car (awww) and a sales manager… Continue reading

The weather has been alternatingly damp, grey, drizzly, clear, cool, and slightly humid. That's summer in San Bruno. A "Sunny Express" Delivery truck was behind the Company earlier in the week (on one of the foggy days). As I walked by, I said to the driver "So, where's the Sun you're delivering?" He laughed.

The friend who sent me the pointer to this little gem used the phrase "It is a big world…." Continue reading

It's been a quiet week in Lake Woebegone… The weather has been mostly pleasant with the occasional morning or evening fog. There have been a couple of truly spectacular sunsets as well this week. We've placed an order for a Black Cherry Scion XB🙂 We ordered the fog lights and the cargo cover but no… Continue reading
