I told Dad I would take him to the movies tonight. And now I don't want to go. (Nebraska, btw, with Bruce Dern.)

But I haven't seen him since Sunday, so I will be a good daughter and go.

My commute home this evening took two hours. My evening is pretty much shot and I have no idea what to make for dinner.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Liquor?

I'll probably go with a chickpea burger and some red bell pepper with hummus.

That sounds good.

Maybe I will have a quesadilla. I've got all the ingredients and it's not very demanding to put together.

I hope you end up having a good evening, Consuela.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I just heated up some blueberries with a little blueberry jam and put it over leftover buttermilk biscuits, and it is delicious! And now I have only had foods that start with B for dinner.

That meal was brought to you by the letter B and the number 3.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The past two nights I've had family anxiety dreams, but the first nights was so bad that I stayed home. I was disturbed and undone and I don't I is where it came from and I'll refuse to talk about it ever and never mind move along .

Having grown up with a family of alcoholics, they do a NUMBER on those closest to them. Have you ever checked out al-anon? Helps get some distance and with the bottomless rage and heartbreak which comes form dealing with a drinker.

Good for you, Brenda, for giving her a good loooong home, toe biting fluff and all.

Tonight I unpacked my workbench and assembled the drawers. And reorged/rearranged/cleaned part of the basement so I have a good place to assemble it and put it! The main may be a two person job- Joe & Sarah have already volunteered, with a gleam in their eyes: it has a vice.

Repacked some old boxes of stuff, tossed out some old vacuums and fans in the alley for the roving junk collectors.

Pleased with tonight's progress.
