Good 48º (summer?) foggy morning. 15º warmer than
it's been in the morning. Must be the cloud cover keeping the heat in. Or as Al
Bore said, global warming. Or... as PJ says "globalwarmingmyass" ~!!
LOL
So far I've taken 1000 pictures with my new camera.
There are still so many things I don't know about it yet. Complicated and lots
to read in the instruction book. Just found out how to change the time... and
how to take rapid photos of action. Still working on the lighting.
PICTURE of the day (Just for you Linda Nantz! Her bucket
list travel spot)
Machu Picchu Peru...
Notice the llamas resting on the grass...
http://umpquaoats.com/index.php I
thought it was a local product, as we have Umpqua Oregon, Umpqua River, Umpqua
Bank and Umpqua National Forest... it's an Indian word. But, this company was
started in Las Vegas! You shake the box, add hot water, put on the lid, and let
it steep for 2-3 minutes. YUMMMMY!!! I had some this morning with my Greek
yogurt w/spinach & kale on a rice cake, and coffee.
For a quick and easy 270 calorie breakfast, the oats are
great. Check your Costco or... Amazon.com
LOL..... (thanks Ron Wisberger ... LASD ret. for
this)
Then................. Lynn Helbing (ret LASD) sent this.
What a riot. I watched, sang along, and am still chuckling.. "long in the
tooth", eh Lynn?
"Enjoy this to the max, even though El Presidente may
not! Little did the Platters know in 1955 that this song would be so popular and
appropriate in 2013, 58 years later. You folks of longer tooth will remember the
words and will probably be singing along with the Platters.
Jeannie and I were talking about run-ins with critters
that make us cringe or scream. She had a mouse climb up on the bed in a motel
once. SCREAM! When I first moved here I kept my bread in a bottom drawer in the
kitchen. Not knowing anything about country living or critters and didn't know
they can get inside your house......well, I opened the drawer and there was a
mouse eating on a hamburger bun, INSIDE the bag! SCREAM! I think he screamed
too. He ran. I picked up the bun and sprayed it with a clear polyurethane
coating. Still have it. (19 years!)
Jeannie thinks I'm weird. Probably so. It was just one
of those things I kept! I can still see the little mouse munching
away!
Today is my high school pal's hubby's birthday.... Tom
