Good 50º cloudy morning.
Last night about 6pm :
It got wildly windy. Howling wind. Then apparently we got some
rain. Not much, but everything is wet out there. Surprise. The radar shows rain
north of us...
Jeannie said that it poured at her house (up in Grants Pass) and
lots of loud house-shaking thunder!

Yesterday I had a couple boneless skinless chicken
thighs I saved for me, instead of cooking them for Dude. I put them in the small crock*pot and added white wine,
Lawry's Garlic Salt, and a small can of tomato sauce. OMGOSH, it smelled
sooooooooooooo good cooking!
After they were done I dumped the cooking sauce and
I cooked some angel hair spaghetti. Mixed that with a jar of my homemade
marinara sauce (Patterson's tomatoes, garlic, chopped jalapeño, spinach,
chipotle olives, mushrooms, and cheesy Alfredo sauce)... and topped it with the
chicken. My gosh, that chicken was so moist tender and good. YUMMMM! Musta been
the wine, ya think?
My pal Berta called me Sunday and we chatted. She
had just seen the Bradley Cooper movie, Aloha.
Berta said she really enjoyed it. It's gotten some mixed
reviews, but sounds interesting. Romantic comedy.... What could be wrong with watching Bradley Cooper!!
There is one coming out on my birthday I want to see, starring
Robert Redford and Nick Nolte...A Walk In The Woods http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1178665/
Yesterday I ran "5 Miles". We took the trash out and put the can
on the road for pick up today. Then I trimmed a couple trees. One down by the
trash can that was taking over at ground level and one on my driveway that was
smacking my car side mirrors. Then the joy of it all... I paid bills! YUCK! Bad
as housework!
Then I had a call from a dear old friend, Brian Cook. He and his
brother Bruce both worked with Jerry at Temple Station. We had a great long
chat. Thanks for the call Brian! After that, a chat with Steve Voors (he wanted your phone number Brian), Jerry's radio car partner. Then with Jennifer and Mike and a chat with Jeannie ... then Linda. I was a busy phone gal last evening. Fun!!! Then it was TV time (boring) .... and a nap in my chair!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Monday. Ciao.
