Life, Death & Computer Malfunctions



This month is flying by, a rapid succession of adventures as days that I can barely keep up with. Since last I wrote here, I have turned another year older, a good friend has departed and my computer has completely broken down.

The laptop is fixed. I wish everything was as easy to repair as making an appointment at the Mac store. As for the rest of us, we will keep moving forward, keep having birthdays, keep getting older, keep breaking down. Until one day we won't. So it goes.

And on that note... have a fully wonderful Memorial Weekend friends. It's a long one, but it goes fast.

the levees melted like sugar...



This old footage of the Great Mississippi flood is amazing. It's wild to think of 700,000 refugees being sheltered in those little old fashioned tents.

Happy Cinco de Mayo



Happy Cinco de Mayo friends. I'm raising my margarita to you!

boy, are my arms tired




Well, I just flew in from Portland and boy...

I had the window seat this time. Oooh I just love the window seat. Everything looks so dreamy when you see it from high above.


I am missing my loved ones in the Pacific Northwest like crazy today. But the sun is shining and Ventura is absolutely glorious. And it's hard to beat spending the day in the garden, getting dirty with my honey.

What did you all do this weekend? I'd love to hear of your adventures.
