Nothing new to write about, and I'm determined to write mostly positive things. It's easy enough to find things to complain about and I'm too happy to be complaining, although what I'm happy about I couldn't tell you. Being alive, I guess, is a good reason.
I have picture frames and photos spread from one end of my living room to another, on every surface. I don't know where to start - most of the photos were removed from frames when I sold my house. I did save a bunch of frames, but wish I had kept all of them. I donated about 30 of them to Kiwanis and kept the rest in storage. I hope I can get Jeannie to come over and help me one of these days - she has a good eye for placing pictures on the wall. I don't.
I know it's a peronal choice that everyone makes who sells their house and belongings to enter the full-time RVing life style. I'm referring to downsizing, getting rid of "stuff", and whether or not to rent storage space for at least a while. I have always been a little sorry that I didn't store some of my furniture and furnishings, things like the pictures, my TV and DVD player, and the many things that make a house a home. Back to the storage question, I was only living in the RV for about 2-1/2 years, and would probably have been better off if I had kept more of my furniture and belongings. But hindsight is 20/20, and I just want to present the downsizing point of view from my own experience.
Jeannie and Donald are going with Autumn's kindergarten class tomorrow on a field trip, so I will go over and stay with Arianna. I need to be there around 7:30 a.m., which is early for me these days so I will have to go to bed a little earlier tonight.
I think we are going to have sunny 70F weather the next 3 days, and then the temps will drop and rain might appear a few days after that. It's hard to know what to wear because it's cold in the morning hours, and again when the sun starts to go down. I'll probably just wear sweat pants and a T shirt, and a sweatshirt over that. I'm glad I bought 3 sets of sweats while Target still had them in stock. I'll take them to Lassen for wearing in the evenings spent by the campfire. I don't drink a beer while I'm wearing the uniform, so changing into something comfortable and popping the top on a can of Miller Hi Life after dinner is a Hi point of my day!
- Hot-hot-hot!!!
I never did like Sacramento during the summer, and the older I get the more I hate it. Triple digits for at least the next week are not healthy for me. I've been out twice today - early this morning I went to buy strawberries at the farmers'...

I just went outside to get my mail and walked into a beautiful sunny afternoon! Though we desperately need rain, I am happy to see the sun, especially right now. This morning was very chilly, and I hurried to the kitchen to start my coffee maker. ...

It was a cold 25 degrees this morning so I sat back and watched Animal Cops Houston until noon. Picked up a few items from Target and then walked a few stores over to Barnes & Noble. I had a list of books I was interested in buying, but...

Not really, not me at least, but I am going to a birthday party for my granddaughter Autumn, who will be 6 yrs old in a couple of days. Last night Donald was doing the cake and needed to get his 4 girls out of the house for a while, so Jeannie,...
