🙂 Saturday, love the break from work and being able to sleep in a little bit. It’ll be a day broken up by DMV studies, off and on, and possibly dealing still a little bit with the la school board uproar I wrote about this week as the circumstances are still evolving. I also need to pick up some groceries, but not too many as they’re so expensive. And I still paid over $5 a gallon for gas the other day.
I am finishing up Brian Kilmeade’s Teddy and Booker T. It is very interesting.
:( My friend’s death. :( That the family was broken up years ago, leaving so much sadness for so many. Almost 32 yrs. of marriage before that happened.
:( My eye issue. Another appointment on Monday. Not sure if this is combined with some other health concerns.
:) So much joy from grandchildren even when they are not around.
I saw a photo on FB of a free little front-yard library, but for dogs — filled with fetch sticks. 🙂 A joke, I’m sure, but that idea could have legs …
🙂 Listened to part one of the church podcast interviewing my good British friend at church, a former travel journalist who at one time was on 3 LA radio stations. So fun and it did my heart good as he spoke of how he (still) has such a love for the United States, he was smitten as a child during WWII in Britain as Americans flooded in. When he was in his 20s he made it over here and never looked back.
😦 I miss my kitty.
🙂 Watered Charlie Brown 2 in the back, it’s been 2 years since that was planted by an arborist (I believe it was 10 feet tall, the mid-range choice for their canary pines); now it must be 20+ feet tall but still thin and needing more branches (but arborist says it looks good, as it should, and will fill out going forward). I hope I can see it when it gets full. Guess I should have calculated my age and years I have a little better, lol, maybe I should have bought the bigger tree. haha
🙂 God willing I’ll still get to see a fair number of branches sprouting in my day.
🙂 (Church friend is a master interviewer and now does all our podcasts so it was fun to have the tables turned and listen to him being interviewed instead — by the deacon I once interviewed for a story as he is a former soap opera actor who had a call-back that year for their reunion special episode).

I remember the Jan Karon books, they were fun.

So, my prison ministry friends no longer take books. I’ve been thinking about mailing of box full that group you recommended before, Janice.
I have so many that aren’t picked up through my little library, it makes sense to send them where someone may read them.
