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 when I looked through them I just didn't get the buzz I sometimes do when I pick up a new book.
I browsed around the store for a while and then decided to just wait a few days before trying it again. I love books, but there are days when I'm not interested much in reading - probably my eyes just aren't working right.
Because of the cold I went out dressed warmly; coming out of Target a woman in front of me had on shorts, a short sleeve shirt, and flip-flops! But that isn't all that unusual in Sacramento - she might possibly wear a long sleeve blouse, skirt, and knee-high boots in July. That was one of the first things I noticed when I moved here in 1983 - people dress weird sometimes, and totally out of season. I get a kick out of seeing it, and wish I could be so unconcerned. My mom raised me with very strict ideas about how to dress for the seasons, wearing a coat or sweater in "pneumonia weather" (first days of spring when the temps pass 65 degrees). Now I wear a coat or sweater only when I'm cold, but never wear white before Memorial Day or after Labor Day. Some old habits die hard.
It's 45 now going up to a high of 48 for the day, and way too cold to put down something to kill the unwanted grass and weeds. I might as well tear up the whole yard and start all over when the weather warms up.
- Puzzle Time!
As always, there is a jigsaw puzzle being worked on the dining room table. This time it's as diabolical as always - a picture in the shape of a triangle, with pieces that are all triangular shaped. I placed a few of the pieces last night,...
- Calendar Error
My calendar shows that it's the 2nd Friday in February, but I'm sure there have been more than that. I seems to me that Friday comes along about every 3 or 4 days! And to add to the confusion, our temperatures will be in the...

This answers Nancy A.'s question yesterday about what brand of Turmeric I bought. Nature's Lab™ Turmeric Curcumin C3, 1,000 mg., 120 Vegetarian Capsules $28.99 Rated 4.2 out of 5 I ordered it online and...
- Friday, Already???
Yep, another short week gone by. I had to make a couple of short trips this morning, Costco and the grocery, and I couldn't believe the traffic. I wondered if there had been an accident or a lane closure somewhere, but it's...

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,...

No luck shopping
