Fun

I finally have a free moment. One of my not-so-nice traits is that chaos makes me crazy. I hate mess. And that is how I live now. A mess!

I decided that before the Fourth, I work SO much better under a deadline, that I would have a room not filled with boxes. Tonight I have such a room. Don't open any cabinet with doors or a closet, you may be killed with falling stuff, but at least from where I sit, no boxes are in my line of vision.

This has been a hard fought war. The kid has no qualms about chaos, bring it on, I'm good to go! So we comprise, he picks up lunch and drives to Home Depot. I putter. He brings me lattes. I put away. He goes to his room to watch tv. I clean. It works.

The dogs have been a giant pain in the butt. The fenced yard, not so tight, both dogs can escape at will. Herbie is the instigator in this endeavor but Olive is right fine with the plan. We have bought a lot of chicken wire. I have no idea if they can still bolt for freedom but I do know we can now raise poultry if we desire.

This morning I had coffee on the back deck. The whales were out and frolicking. The pelicans showed up and for a moment I really thought I was on the nature channel. It was simply wonderful. And I am no nature girl, so you know it was something!

My kind of food is hard to find down here. People drive very SLOW, add in a bicyclist and we were almost at a dead stop. I have not been to a book store in a whole week and the donut shop ran out of donuts. Little quirky things. All in all, fun.

P.S. - I just did spell check and one of my words was misspelled and the only choice I had was "bestiality" the coast, it is changing me.
