Happy Mothers Day
Above all, a happy mother's day-- to all moms! A day to be celebrated!


This week has been a bit of a popper! (normally I would use a select expletive-- 4 letter rude word) We had a fire start in a park along the highway I have to drive. The traffic stopped when I was near the park--you could hear exploding noises like the fourth of July! When flames came up to the trees, the pine trees exploded! (I did not know that). This is the secend fire near the canyon (number one was in the canyon)in only 2 months! At least it did not go up the canyon wall or jump the highway. But I got a snoot full of smoke, on top of a virus, so I had an asthma attack and had to miss a day of work again. I was out only one day because I have fought long to get full time hours. Then, 2 days later I was victim of hit and run on the highway! I wasn't hurt--it was pretty minor-- but I was fried the driver kept on going! I was emotionally shaken up--- then just funked out. I was glad to be busy (yes, went into work because I wasn't hurt and hate to lose time) The next morning, all I wanted to do was stay in the house. Luckilly, my neighbor and friend was outside and called me over. We chatted, had iced tea, and put together some Japanese lanterns, I helped install some solar walkway lights. My neighbors are really wonderful-- but I don't like to call people up when things go wrong for me-- because this year, it has just happened that often! But I think things would have felt very bad today had we not shared some time together.

It gave me some motivation to use the computer-- I was just hiding in the den or bedroom. My friends here are also a big help.

So here's to a quiet week (I hope) ! A picture from my back yard-- baby persimmons-- when they are small , you can only see them from underneath the tree. If they make it (most usually fall off), they are brilliant orange in color. I'm told that they make nice cookies and breads. I wish all my friends fun on mothers day, and a good week.
