Greetings!

Whoooooo I got the hippy hippy shakes! We just had a 7.0 earthquake and there is a tsunami warning. We are totally fine but the house did some serious wiggling. The ceiling fan was swinging and everything jiggling. We are not in the tsunami zone but the studio is and everyone has cleared out of there. No damage reports but I bet some of the little towns to the south have some. I had planned to go to the studio this afternoon but maybe will skip. The place is close to the bay and only about 10 feet above sea level.

So thats the excitement here. Sounds like Paula and DD are experiencing worse acts of Mother Nature with winter storms and snow. Snow is great until you have to go somewhere then it isn't. Stay warm friends. DD your thoughts on your DD's birth and related events are so touching. Amazing how life is knitted together.

White guy tacos! Thanks the only kind I knew as a kid. Then there are white girl tacos which are baloney sandwiches on white bread. Luckily there are good tacos here. Now I want some. But I bet the taco trucks were impacted by the shake.

Not much else - like that is not enough. I will check in later when I read more and know more.

145.9! 145 is a normal BMI! I?m getting so close! Yay! Took my 1/2 dose shot today.

Last night?s Bible study was done via Google Meets, much like we did during Covid. Roads were cleared enough to go to Woman?s Bible study this morning. DH already made the Costco run, so not sure I need to go out in the frigid temps again today. Feels like temps are -8 to 15 with windchill! Have I ever mentioned that I hate Wisconsin winters? Thank God the summers here are just about perfect!

Need to do some on-line shopping for outdoor Christmas decorations. Our deer family has seen better days. Mama deer?s lights don?t work anymore and all 3 of the deer?s bows are faded and looking ratty. I?m thinking of maybe getting a nativity set to replace the deer. And maybe those white lighted trees! We have lighted garland and wreathes and small lighted trees that adorn our front porch.

DH just came upstairs and wants to go out for sushi lunch. Guess I will be going out in the frigid weather!

I think I make white guy tacos too but I use salsa instead of a package.

I was numb for months after my DH passed away. And not fully conscious for the first year. IMHO, there are no right/wrong rules about any of this.

Yeah, that's a lot. I wish you were here. You could have my round table (with a leaf it's oval-shaped) that I can't use in KY (David's dining table and chairs are lovely family heirlooms). Therefore, I'm donating it to Habitat for Humanity. Not even the used furniture store would buy it. Maybe you could find a used furniture store somewhere in your neck of the woods?
