Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!
Hope Santa was good to all of you.
I had a special in with Santa this year!
We had a wonderful holiday.
Back to work in the morning.

Drip, drip, drip

So...
It's raining outside.
I know it's good for the EARTH!
I just prefer it to rain at night.
I want to be able to do things during the day.
I know I won't melt in the rain.
It's just in So. Cal. people don't know how to drive on wet roads.
PLUS...
The stinking roads are flooding due to new construction
EVERYWHERE
in our neck of the woods.
Plus...
Our new little shopping center is mobbed
with millions (exaggeration? maybe?) of shoppers!
Plus...
I got hungry (just like the crowds shopping)
went to Panda Express and had to wait...and wait...and wait.
Plus...
my little dog (Skeeter) is yapping his head off
because he does NOT want to go out in the rain to do
YOU KNOW WHAT
so he's standing at his doggy door yapping!
Plus...
I think there is Cocoa in the pantry!
I also baked cookies yesterday!
And NCIS is coming on!
Peace on Earth
I'm out of here!

AHHHHH

We just got back from our little get-away.
It was so very relaxing!
The beach is a soothing place to visit.
There were seals playing in the water.
Yes it was cloudy and a little overcast.
Who cares!
We stayed at the Oceanside Harbor.
Since our favorite place in Palm Springs closed for good
( but bad for us! )
we've been looking for a new haven.
It has to be kind of close
(no wasting time on a long drive).
It has to be quiet and comfortable.
This place is!
Regrettably,
It's also PRICEY.
That's why when we get to sneak off there,
it is such a treat!
