I have racked up a lot of things I need to follow up on, make phone calls or write emails on, etc. Today I really made a dent in my list, and I feel positively virtuous about it! Are there readers out there who do the same thing - procrastinate until the eleventh hour?
The only time I left the house today was a trip to Costco. I believe I went up and down every single aisle, but bought very little. The only treat I got myself was a package of little sweet cakes with raspberry filling! I ate two of them after lunch and they are ok. They are very small - about two bites worth each. There are berries and other fruit I like better than raspberry, but they will do. I was still able to get strawberries from California, but the blueberries were from South America so I didn't buy them. I'm a "buy local" person to the extent I can."
This is "Space Week" on the Science channel, and I'm recording everything that sounds interesting to me. I prefer to watch and be able to fast forward through the stupid, monotonous commercials. For not having a scientific mind I am really interested in scientific subjects. I doubt if it would have made a difference for me, but when I was in high school I could count on one hand the number of girls who did well in science (I went to an all girls' high school). It was really pathetic the way girls were limited to feminine pursuits in those days. Home Economics was always a large class. I managed to escape it!
We might get some rain tonight. It is badly needed, but I doubt there will be enough to make a dent in the drought.
- What A Bummer!
After months of feeling increasingly better I now feel like crap. Hopefully this will only last a few more days and I can get back to life again. The wind is blowing today and I'm not sure if it is blowing more allergens and...
- Go California!
It was a great day for the Ky Derby winner, California Chrome. I thought the pre-race chatter reminded me of a football game with all the boring commentary, but when it got down to it, there were some beautiful horses in this race, especially the...
- Waiting
The AT&T installer was scheduled to be here between 11 and 1:00, and it's now 1pm. I just got a call from him saying he'd be here in about 20 minutes. But I didn't have anything else to do today, did I. So now he has been here...
- Worn Out By Noon!
I started early (for me) this morning and got two pre-op tests out of the way, the chest xray and blood draw. The local clinic doesn't do EKG's so I will probably have to go downtown to my doctor's office for it. I bought another muffin...

My youngest son stopped by with his two girls this morning, and it was great to see them. They went to Disneyland last week and the girls had a lot to tell me about the rides they went on. Joe starts back to school next Tuesday. I spent a...
