Today'a Name Day:   Assar

    I have had a perfect day!!!  It  is hard for me to realize what a great day I have had!

    First I slept really good.  Plus I had a nice afternoon nap.

    Second I had a call from a doctor that is an eye specialist.  And she had an appointment to see me right away.  I hope she can help me so I can see again.

    Third on my way to town & driving down my drive way when something caught my eye.  I backed up & found sitting in a tree in my pasture an owl.  An OWL.  They are so rare to see or hear.  At least here.  I took several photos that were awful.  Changed to a different camera & I got one that was not great but I can see him.  He just sat & watched me.  Maybe he is around often & is used to seeing me drive down the drive.  Who knows??  I was so excited.  Now I will be looking for him often.

    Fourth, my stomach was borderline not well.  But I went to town to pick up JR.  We had pizza for supper.  I ate a small piece.  And all was well.

    Fifth, we drove all over town taking photos of Christmas lights.  My first ones were awful.  I finally got my camera settings correctly & then all was well.  Saw some pretty lights.  There was a special yard I really wanted to photograph.  And just as I parked, a pickup parked in front of them.  Dang.  Decided I would come back later.  As I drove by with my window down a lady was taking things out of her truck.  We both smiled & said Hello.  I got my photo later.

    Sixth, driving by my neighbours I saw a tractor parked in their front yard.  With Santa on it.  Very cool!!!

    Came home with an ok stomach.  Both cats demanded treats so they got them.  Then I emptied both of their litter boxes & put totally new litter in them.  THEN I got a treat!!!  Cake!

    Photos are Christmas ones..  And the end of my Perfect Day!!!

                            

                    

07 December, 2022 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    It was 81 years ago that Pearl Harbor was attacked.  Willie & I visited Hawaii for the 50th anniversary.  It is very moving to go out to the monument.  From the air you can still see the ship. There is still bubbles of oil, water & air rising to the top of the sea.  I enjoyed Hawaii.  It is beautiful & the people are very nice.  I had so many things I wanted to see & do.  The friends we traveled with left a lot to be desired.  I got to do nothing that I wanted.  She only wanted to shop or golf.  But she fell on some wet rocks so there went golfing.  Wish I could go back.  Probably too late for me.

    I did not go to work today.  Still having sciatica pain & weakness in my leg.  And to get to my computer I have to walk down a flight & a half of steps to the basement.  I hate not to be there.  Next week has got to be better.

    I tried to nap but failed.  I just rested.  I did rearrange my purse to make it easier to find what I need.  Put a lot of smaller things in a little zippered bag.

    JR & I ate at Jalisco's.  I did not think they were too busy but JS corrected me.  He had many take out orders.  I did notice that too.

    Cinder left here before sun up.  Why?  Where does she go?  But she was back before supper.  Always makes me worry.

    On the way home I took a few photos of Christmas lights in town.  Those are my photos tonight.  Certainly not the best but they are what they are.
