Mom just retired and is quickly returning to her
"old" ways - breakfast on the patio. Yes,
there will be food . .
. when the kids wake up!
|
Drove from
SF to home, unpacked their cars,
and now
to relax a little. The
"scoobie" was
hot
on I-5 and the air couldn't be turned on.
Plus,
the Bear took a little unplanned detour
into
Pasadena, with Doug on
cell: "Where are you GOING, Bear?"
|
A little tire and rim maintenance. Staying
connected by cell phone.Weather like this
just doesn't exist in SF!
|
Still talks better while pacing!
Connecting

a candidate for a NYC roommate.
|
A sweet
little kitty has taken up residence.
|
Kitty needs a name. Part Siamese. Blue
Eyes.
No
claws -- that's not fair! |
|
Legal
advice on transferring the
"Scoobie"
title which
is still in Doug's name, but is owned
by the Bear.
|
Doug and I went to OSH to scout
out "CLR" which he correctly advised
would take the haze off the glass on
my pole lamp. Yippee!!
|
Celebrating Mom's birthday at Pam and Craig's,
a day
after Robb's
trip from SF as part of
an astounding surprise party for Doug.
|
Doug
and Mary are everywhere!
The
garage is getting a new look!
|
Boxes are "growing" on the patio.
|
Doug has opened an "office" in the den . . .
|
. . .
and another office in a guest bedroom!
|
His bedroom is a mecca for sorting out.
|
And a guest room closet sports
some great looking suits!

Sunday brunch is shaping up . . . |
.
. al fresco? And all "scratch" stuff:
Doug's outrageous omelet
with the "works", Resort Fresh Fruit Salad with
special sauce,
Blueberry Butter Crumb Dessert with freshly-made blueberry
sauce, and the usual OJ, coffee, and nice warm weather...
|
Bubbles
floating out the back door!
|
Alli:
Instead of rice? Bubbles were used in
the
garden wedding last night. Mary says
it
was very effective.

On
pool watch . . .
|
Pool time with the kids!
|
Aug. 12,
leaving for LAX.
|
On
our way to LAX.
|
Mary will see you in 10 days, and Mom will
see you in
5 weeks. Have a WONDERFUL trip, Doug!
|
Happiness
is:
filling the house with family,
EACH TIME THERE'S AN
OPPORTUNITY !
