Good 33º foggy morning. Supposed to be in the 70º's for the next few
days. Was absolutely beautiful yesterday!
My Bruiser headed off towards the trees yesterday afternoon when I left for
the market. He didn't come home all night. Worry worry worry. He hasn't done
this for a few months and it breaks my heart. :o( I HATE it when he takes
off!!! Then someone up there was listening to me and he came home at 6:45 this
morning. WHEW....... My baby boy is home! YES!
"10-14" ... no code for that.
I donate to Socks for Heroes, based in San Clemente. They send socks to our
Marines. Here is a picture of the latest shipment going to the post
office....

Saturday when the stump grinding guys were here, PJ came by with a pumpkin
and some mums for babysitting her cats while she and Dave were at the coast with
Patty and Cliff. Beautiful! Thank you PJ!!
She also gave me a darling dish towel...
....and she brought over some "gifts" that
Tom and Debbie had bought for me when they were in Alaska recently...
The one on the left is swizzle sticks with petrified moose poop on the
top... It says on the package "Do not eat and keep out of reach of children".
Hmmm.... The other is "Alaska Wilderness Perfume"... 'aromatic perfume
capsules'... moose poop! LOL. Thanks, I think, Debbie!!!!

Yesterday I went
shopping and found some interesting stuff... Oh boy, Blueberry Muffin and Jelly
Donut flavored coffees! Roasted Garlic Alfredo Sauce. AND... Roasted Honey Nut
peanut butter. OMG it's soooooooooooo good!!!
After I finished my
shopping I went over to Jennifer's house. Her friend Erika was there and Mike
showed up ... the two of them dug up a couple of Quaking Aspen trees for Erika
to take home. Jennifer has a big riverfront property and LOTS of trees! We
watched some of the 9er's game. Tried to help her with her computer, but she has
an Apple and it's Greek to me! So we had some wine and chatted. She gave me some
of her crockpot soup (chicken beans and other stuff) home and I had it for
dinner. YUMMMMMM!!!!! Awesome Jennie! Thanks!!! Sorry, no pictures, but Heaven
Moody and Keeper were their beautiful and charming selves. Next time!
Football yesterday:
The Lambs did well! Yes, the Raiders lost! Sorry Tootie, your Jets lost.
:o( Billy I see your Sea Chickens did good too, but your Bills didn't.
Jeannie's 9ers did great! AND my Patriots slid by! Whoa. Tonight Brian's Colts
and Cliff's Chargers play.
All I know. Happy Monday. Nuff said. Off to make some Jelly Donut coffee!
Ciao.
