We actually have the windows open now!!!!

Oh, the fresh air! It rained a little today and the fires are more in the distance now. We actually had some nice air to breathe- Whew!!! What a complete relief!!! All of you, please, appreciate the fresh air that you have- wherever it may be... Nanaroo Sign in to see full entry.

it's just like when the Wizard of Oz went from black and white to color!!!

Well, today I drove home about 3pm and I noticed a couple of things.. first, that acrid sour awful smell of smoke wasn't in the air and second, I was seeing blue sky, the first in about a week! YAY!!! That means that at least, the fire situation, in our area, has improved considerably! I arranged... Sign in to see full entry.

Talk about second hand smoke!

I am pretty tired of the smoky air here but am glad to still have our home! As you probably know, Southern California is a mess right now, with fires all over the place. The smoke in the sky isn't letting the sunshine through and it is difficult to be outside much. Mister Cat is really glad we... Sign in to see full entry.

The hills are alive...

with fire! The Orange County (California) fire started right across the street from us last night. The smoke in the air is blocking out the sun and it's pretty scary around here. We were watching the fire run up the hills and wow- can fire ever move fast- I had no idea! I had the suitcases packed... Sign in to see full entry.

Almost the weekend...

... except I have to work on Saturday! Oh nooooo-- thoughts of getting out on the motorcycle were creeping into my mind and then I remembered- I have to do a conference on Saturday, darn. How are you bloggers doing? Happy Thursday to you! Sign in to see full entry.

We went to a drive through flu shot clinic!

Have you had your flu shot yet? Last weekend we went to a drive-through flu shot clinic- yep, 'just stick your arm out the window'! They had traffic directors, clearly marked lanes, it was amazing. Hubby asked for a burger and fries but no deal. Everyone was in a good mood and it completely... Sign in to see full entry.

Why not get old 'with a vengence'???!

I don't know what really happened with this recent birthday but somehow, I decided to 'get old with a vengence'!!! What that means for me is that I've decided to just quit... 'fini' 'end' 'stop' everything having to do with my former endeavor to 'look younger'! Enough! It is a worthless effort- it... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm going to build in some 'quiet-just-for-me time...'

My days have been missing a very important ingredient- that quiet, 'just for me' time! No wonder I can't sleep, am stressed out, and am anxiously seeking out any seconds of peace and quiet that I can hoard in my daily life. This has to be fixed... pronto!!!!! Either my job, hubby, or M.Cat- wants my... Sign in to see full entry.

Why is it getting so darn hard to get a good nights' sleep???

...just call me the Zombie of the Night! I'm awake so much now, at night. It is not uncommon at all for me to see the clock at 1:30am, 3am, 3:30am - any time of night. Is this part of getting older? Are any of you who are over 50 sleeping well at night??? Geez. It's a good thing I like my job- that... Sign in to see full entry.

No eyebrows...

We saw the new "Elizabeth..." movie today. Not as great a movie as I thought it would be but I can't say why exactly. Clive Owen was his usual sexy intense self, Geoffrey Rush was up to his usual standards, but the whole thing seemed to have some emotional gaps. Cate Blanchett is such a great...
