Happy birthday Suela!

Pix the party sounds fun! But we have friends getting in Saturday and will be doing stuff with them.

Last night we drove out to Joshua Tree to stare at the stars. I wish we’d been there a little later (it got darker) but we are early to bed and getting home took a while. But it was still cool.

I've been hankering to see a full starry night, the whole Milky Way, without light pollution lately.

Happy birthday, Consuela!

Just paid my property taxes, and have ticked off several items on my Must Do Today list.

I think it's time for Second Coffee.

Happy birthday, ‘Suela!

I had an interview today and scheduled on for next week with another school. I guess people want to finalize hiring by the end of the year.

Recovery ~ma for your mom, Trudy.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

This has been a tough day, but I wanted to let everyone know that while Mom did have a little skin cancer on her hand, they are confident the doctor can remove it in the office and it's not very scary.

Basically what I've been dealing with. She's just got to be regular with the dermatologist now.

This state is a hot spot for such things--it would be helpful if there were more derms close by, though.

Glad to hear that, erikaj. Relatively, at least.
