The fires are mostly contained, but under a tornado watch until 1PM. 60+ mph winds are predicted to reignite some of the hot spots. I have the items on front porch and the Carolina room on the pond put away/battened down. Mahjongg was fun last night. The 2025 cards come out 04.01.25, so we are all trying to play some of the 2024 hands we haven't tried yet. Be safe, everyone !

Sounds like that stylist is a keeper! I'm getting color and cut Friday, and I can't wait.

SNOW DAY! Well technically a flex day. We post online assignments for the students to complete and we need to be available via email for any questions. I'm doing this under the covers, in my jammies while watching the local news and drinking tea.

We got 10 inches, and now a stiff wind is blowing the snow around. Definitely a day to stay off the roads. I have everything I need here, so I will stay put.

120.2 - I think steak raises my weight a bit as the last time I went up this much in a night was also after steak.

I had my hair highlighted (and slightly low lighted in a few places) and cut by the new stylist yesterday. Half the price of the last time I went to a place here. That salon was located in a posh area on the river. This one is in a more relaxed town just north of here in a strip mall on Route 1. Regardless, she probably did the best cut and color I ever remember having - I told her what I wanted in basic terms and she made some suggestions. Wow does she know her stuff! My friend *****commended her described her as an artist. And so nice - early 40's with 2 small children and very family oriented. She is originally from a small town in Massachusetts near where DH grew up.

By the time I was home it was after noon so DH and I went to a restaurant on the river and split a sandwich, then took a walk on the edge of the river and onto a small peninsula dedicated as a Veteran's memorial. Very beautiful and peaceful. We will have to take Justice for that walk next time.

It is actually nice but warm here this morning. It is supposed to be windy (as always these days), quite warm and thunderstorms in the afternoon. A front just before my next golf tournament tomorrow morning when it will be 60 and windy. I swear I have been cold every week when I have played but thought that since it was 2 weeks since last time it would be warmer. Nope!

Today DH has golf so I will walk Justice around that timing and Water Aerobics. We have a wine dinner tonight with seafood and paella on the menu.

Have a warming Wednesday!

Always dangerous to go into a food store when hungry (or without a list for me).

Greetings all

Overcast today. Scrabble was fun even though I lost two and one one. All very close. We discuss the events of the day including local stuff. One guy knows all the live entertainment options. Good to know. After that I stopped at the store for a few things and made a few deli impulse purchases. I need to remember not to go to store hungry.

DH is at our new dentist. It will be interesting to see how he likes her. I have a lot of work scheduled so I will be interested. I asked him this morning what was going to be done and he did not know. Geez. Well Bonnie I am pretty sure he did not swallow a crown. What a fright for you!

Liz glad that appointment is scheduled and fairly soon. Sending good vibes.

So Ann, you are now living in Motel Hell? Sorry for that. Sounds icky plus sick. If you do eat worms at least add sour cream or bbq sauce. Or better yet get well and go home. Once I stayed at a pretty cruddy biker motel while at a dog show. My dog went under the bed and found a greasy steak bone....

Jeepers Peps are you really thinking about dual citizenship? What is the world coming to? Wise of you to count your blessings. We all have a lot.

Finally got the final gallery lease doc. This started last June. These people are nuts.

DD sorry to hear you are getting one of the famous midwestern storms. Stinging rain! Hope they call the whole day. But freedom is close!

Well time to do something useful such as go to gym. Two little eaglets are hatched in Big Bear and they are priceless.
