Good 27º burrrrrrrr frozen cloudy morning. Again.
Pretty day yesterday.... warmed to 61º. SUN~!!!!!!
Went to Dave and PJ's to feed fish and a couple other
things ... Dude was so not interested in the fish!
The fish were happy to see me.... the "food

Our mode of transportation to Dave and PJ's is my golf cart.... I ride and Dude runs along side... as you can see I have my "official" LASD decal....
Came home and the Bruise was napping in his bed on the side of my desk...
in the sunshine!
This came from my friend Pat Kelly (Greece traveling friend)

OK, today is the big football day. My team isn't playing, so
boo hoo boo hoo. Neither are a lot of teams you guys love. So, I'm rooting for
the Broncos. I like and respect Peyton Manning. He's a good guy. Not fond of the
SeaChickens. So, we'll see.... Making taquitos and a guacamole dip ..... deviled
eggs. Will have pictures tomorrow.
"They" say one glass a day is good for you. "They" never said how many
times you fill it.
Today is a special anniversary of two special people... John (ret LASD Lt

Bill saw her yesterday and said she looked great .... for going through a big

February 2nd
Candlemas, The Feast of Purification
On
the Modern calendar - February 2nd
On
the Julian calendar - February 15th
Candlemas
is the last holiday of the Christmas season. Candlemas is a Christian
celebration, or festival, of the Feast of Purification of the Virgin Mary. It
also celebrates the annual blessing of candles used by the church.
According
to Jewish customs, women were considered "unclean" after the birth of a child.
The unclean period lasted 40 days after the birth of a son, and 60 days after
the birth of a daughter. During this period, they were not allowed into the
temple to worship. At the end of this time, the woman was brought to the temple
and "purified" in a ceremony. After the birth of Christ, the Virgin Mary was
purified on Candlemas or the Feast of Purification.
On
Candlemas, candles used during the year are blessed. In Christian churches,
candles represent Jesus Christ as the light, the truth and the way.

AWWWWW What a lovely tribute to John and me on our 51st anniversary! Thank you so much for that!! What a nice thing to wake up to today! HUGS!!
Loved Farrah and how fun that you took her photo. I am still laughing about the woman on the balcony! Do you think that really happened or she was just being silly?
I also love watching the Barefoot Contessa. She and her hubby are so cute together. You can tell they are crazy about each other.
I watch when Eric is home.
Best wishes to Dee for a quick recovery.
We are also rooting for the Broncos today!
Hugs and thank you again!
XO Trisha
You are so welcome!!! I hope you have a super day!!!
As for the Broncos, John Elway is now their executive vice president and has helped rebuild the Broncos... got Peyton Manning to join the team and aside from that he is a Republican, supported Romney for President, gives of his time and money to the Elway Foundation for abused children. A GOOD GUY!!! xo
