Talked to the person who does the big work at our apt bldg and since I reported a "short" in my bathroom outlet, he called me and told me to trip the circuiit breaker for that room and it worked, my electrical is working....He may still have to do some work on it. Makes me feel good.

Living here in Michigan at this time of the year I only birdwatch from my kitchen window. All the warm weather birds are gone but we have a lot of chickadees, nuthatches, titmice, cardinals, blue jays and a variety of woodpeckers so there are a lot of birds to watch!:):wave:

Yes I still send Christmas cards but a lot fewer than I used to. A lot of my friend's and relatives have stopped sending them. I keep a record of who has sent and to those who haven't in a few years I don't send them cards anymore. My list has shrunk from about 50 to 20 now days. I like getting cards but I am seriously thinking that this might be my last card giving year except to those whom I never see anymore or who live far away.:santa:

I first went to Target to buy a few things, a sweater and some socks.

Both stores were MOBBED, and the traffic was horrible! c'est la vie

The roads were a sheet of ice so our Christmas dinner at my daughter's house was cancelled. I made a hamburger for lunch and then watched a cheesy movie then took a nap. This was totally a weird non-Christmas for me. Especially since Dave is gone. But my daughter and grand daughter will be coming over on Thursday. Then we will exchange gifts and probably go out for lunch.
It has been so freezing cold that the salt on the roads isn't doing any good. This is the first Christmas in my life that never happened:( But I still love my Michigan!:snowman3::wave:

I don't care what any one says weather and climate have so much to do with where we llive.

And all the travelers at airports, planes cancelled, for shortage of pilots, weather, and hearing a huge increase in fuel....I'm so so happy to stay home.

I just got in the mood to call my friend back in PA who lives in a Senior Highrise and has no clue what the high costs of living in larger cities is all about. She still lives in the little town we were both born in and she is very happy and appreciates it all. Her living space is about 500 sq ft, little less and she knows she needs no more. I feel the same way in my 700 sq ft but my rent is 2 times her's...... She's a good egg and calls what is going on the work of satan, the satan she believes in. I believe so many people destroying our universe are the satans....at least we can laugh and understand each other....

Back in 1986 we experienced a mild quake here in Michigan. I felt it here in Mid- Michigan but that's the only one that I know of in my area. There have been a couple of quakes since but in different areas of the state. I think that they originated along a fault line down South somewhere.

I should put this in the: What Did You Do Yesterday category.


I drove around my town looking at all the flowers and plants. The Bottlebrush trees/scrubs are thriving (so much scarlet!). Also, I saw a ton of gorgeous Loquat Japanese Plums:)

Unfortunately, I was disappointed, none of the Jacaranda trees are in bloom. Not one single flower. Which is highly unusual for the month of May. Normally Jacaranda are filled with their stunning purple blossoms.

in California, you don't see them because of drought. I don't know.

I feel the same way about those HOLIDAY grapes, that are only available certain times of the year. The grape is so round and juicy, each one is like a little drink of water! :) They're pricey but worth it, too.

We had a very wet and a cold winter, and I think that is the reason why the Jacarandas are not blooming. The weather here has been weird, and unseasonably cool.



Japanese Cherry Trees are stunning. I would love to see one in person:wave:
