Well....

We have been in Sacramento for the past few days. Here for Thanksgiving and will have about twenty people at our house here if all invited come.

Spook is safely under cover here in Sacramento and will have an additional cover if the one I ordered ever gets here.

New grandson is thriving and getting better looking each day. (He is now seventeen days old.)

We will have to return to Reno pretty soon, if the snow and Caltrans allows. Have to get the snow off the sidewalk in front of our house there. (The homeowners' association is a bit touchy about this kind of thing.)

I really enjoyed the "BIG GAME" last night. Both teams deserved to win and played very well. Daughter, Stanford graduate, did not enjoy it much, but such are the vicissitudes of life.

Must wander on now. Y'all take care hear?

Pretty amazing!

Oh my! Look at the plight of the homeless! Sure, many are druggies; but the potential for an epidemic expands as their numbers expand.

Where do you suppose they use toilets, bathe, or even wash their hands and what is the potential for contamination if and when they do?

How long will it be until their problem becomes ours in our environ in the burbs?

It's raining! (AGAIN)

We have been dry for a few days, but they say that this combination of storms will last all this week. Thank goodness! We need the water.

Whoa! The coffee tastes particularly good this morning. Checked the obits before I made it. Didn't want to waste an entire day with fruitless actions. Once again, I did not make that list.

Spouse is flying back to Yorba Linda tonight, so the dogs and I will have to fend for ourselves until she returns on Friday. Not fun, but we will handle it and grumble. LOL!

Not much going on this coming week. Will probably attend the school board meeting on Tuesday. District will lay off a large group of teachers this year and we just might hear the results of the civil case the district has filed against former board members and former district level administrators of the old Grant District.

News is not good in areas close to us in Sacramento. It looks like we are growing foreclosure signs rather than trees, shrubs and flowers in out front yards.

We are not really affected yet, but our portfolios have shrunk considerably. Guess we shall just hang on and ponder.

Y'all take care hear?
