Busy week 9-02

I guess I’ve been busy this past week….laugh…no blog post.

Larry is still outside of Yosemite and he doesn’t know how long he’ll be there of course, as they haven’t gotten a handle on the situation yet it will probably be another week or so. Though today nary a rotor turned from the base Larry is at…there is another one in the park, (base that is) so maybe he will be released sooner than expected….you just never know with this stuff and whatever happens…happens.

On Saturday I drove down to Minden to see my Corral Cousins, Mike & Pat…Stephanie was there with her two kids, Anthony and Mara. They were napping most of the afternoon after I got there, we all had a nice visit and then we had a wonderful dinner and then they kicked me out the door!!! Laugh…they’ll get what I mean.

I’ve just been puttering around here doing my usual stuff…chores, cooking, eating, reading, crocheting, computering and doing an art project here and there. I’ve gotten on Facebook so sometimes I get stuck on the computer longer than I had planned…it is kind of addicting. I’m on the phone to Larry for quite awhile every day getting caught up and that is about it.

It has been in the low 90’s every day, some days with clouds, some not and the nights get down into the 50’s…very nice. People expect because it is high desert over here to be scorching hot, but it is way hotter in California’s valleys and foothills than here…thank goodness. I have adapted to the 90’s, but I’m not out in it much…at least I don’t feel like melting into a puddle as soon as I walk out the door and it is really dry here which makes the heat easier to take. Larry loves the heat…I like it in the medium range.

Andrea tripped in a hole in someone’s lawn yesterday and fell…baby is fine, but she tore a ligament in her ankle and gets to wear one of those large, black Darth Vader looking booties for 4 weeks. I can’t imagine it…their bathrooms are upstairs…bad enough for Will after he hurt his knee and had surgery, but he isn’t preggers…I’d be investing in a porta potty for the garage…laugh!!!
These pictures were taken at Pat and Mike's...the first picture is "Oma" reading to her grandchildren, Anthony and Mara....the second is Stephanie setting up the food and the last two are cute...Mara was having a high old time eating the whipped topping off of her jello, until Papa cut up her jello thinking he was helping her...she was not happy about the change in her jello....funny for us, devastating for her...she got over it pretty quickly though!
