Good 43ยบ cloudy morning. 80% chance of rain today. What a
relief from being in the teens and twentys!
Yesterday stayed drizzly until afternoon.
FedEx came by with an order. Nice gal. She was driving an SUV.
I asked about that, she said she had the choice of the regular FedEx truck or a
4 wheel drive SUV. Good choice. Much more comfortable! Then the UPS guy came by.
Dude was disappointed...not his 'Dad' and no cookies! THEN.... the gate guy,
from Quality Fence came by and fixed the gate.. new battery. He came back to the
house to tell me and he gave Dude a cookie! Happy dog.
Had to work on calendars yesterday. Today is pay bills day.
Joy.
Throw Back Thursday....
Sandy (Todoran) Beck and me 1989:
The shootings in San Bernardino yesterday were
horrible. My pal Trish's daughter-in-law, Becky, works at that location. She is
ok. Locked herself in with a bunch of people until they were told by police to
come out. That started at 11am. Then they were transported to another location
for questioning. She didn't get out of there until almost 5pm! Long frightening
day. The suspects, a man and wife. So tragic with no explanation. He born here
in US and he met her on line and went to Saudia Arabia to get her. They married
and have a 6 month old child she left with her mother. Wednesday Thursday
Friday????
