I'd heard that the newest Peet's was nice (it had previously been a Burger King). So I rode my bike over there once I got out of very frustrating meeting with well-meaning city officials. The Peets was very nice. But the nicest part was this photo... This gentleman, Sealli was crocheting, like a mad man with a grin as wide as his crochet needles! Before I went and got my iced tea and a ginger cookie, I noticed that there were A's hats, and beanies, and then I saw the colors....blue, white, and gold! Woiryers! That the way grandson, Cadel, says it!  Yes, he was working on a cap! I wondered if he would make one for C? Yep! He would be happy to do so! I told him I had an appointment, and asked how long would he be there. He said at least another hour. That sealed the deal. I told him I'd be back within that time, and gave him my card. Then when I got home, I thought, maybe he could do one for my son, too! I called him. Yep, he could. He'd get on

Prom bomb.

I heard a question on the radio a few weeks ago.  Has there ever been one person who has had complete satisfaction, in hindsight, with a prom?  Another prom season has passed us by and I started thinking about them.  I've never heard anybody rave that the prom exceeded their expectations.  I think it's a night of major let-downs, including breakups.

Maybe the class king and queen of the prom have their expectations met.  Nothing beats a crown and tiara for making one feel special.  That means the rest of the court are losers?  That's rough, hardly fair.  I'm not sure it ends up as perfect as we humble high-school peons imagine it to be.  Being royalty is tough.  I never went to my own high school proms.  I w

I write this for my own health and well-being. I do review what went wrong and what went right. But I don’t dwell on either of them too much. The things that went well…those lead to new challenges. The things that went wrong….I know I need to learn from them…then fahget about ‘em! What the biggest personal accomplishment you've had this year? Thinking I must do everything just right. I have started to learn to lean on and leave it to God. S(He) can let me know what I need to do, when I need to do it, and I can be completely satisfied, or, if not, do it again, without the dribble in my head. What's the coolest thing you've seen this year? Sutter..I've seen her work at the (volunteer only) TED Talks in Christchurch, NZ. She's worked her way up to the #2 position...and folks have taken notice. She just started a new job with a huge pay increase because folks have noticed she is a (nice) boss woman. She was born to boss (in a nice way) people around. Where wa
