Rambling


  • I've got Banana Nut Bread in the oven, a new recipe!
  • Yesterday we were walking thru Costco, and Bob asked me to slow-down.  I did and I said, Pay-back's a bitch, isn't it?  He wanted to know what I meant.  I've spent years with Bob rushing off at a trot or running up stairs, ever the jock, while I kept my same steady (slow to him), pace.  He was always impatient with me.  Now, he's in pain and very slow, and I try to never be impatient.  But I wanted him to know that I thought he was getting a good dose of karma.
  • I had a fabulous trip to NYC.  Book Expo America was fabulous, lots of big name authors were MIA, but there were plenty of debut and up and coming authors ready to shine.  
  • I shipped home 100 lbs.of books.
  • I'm just starting to feel "normal".  Lugging books and being a tourist is mucho hard work!
  • This is the first time I've been in NYC that it was hot, humid and raining.  Not good for a SoCal gal.  I normally don't perspire, it's a genetic thing, but by the time I got back to my hotel, each day, my face and body were coarse with salt; just gritty.
  • I didn't revisit anywhere I'd been before, but there's still tons of places I want to visit in Manhattan.  I guess I'll have to go back!
  • I took tons of photos, surprise, surprise.  Many will be posted on Murrieta365 for various memes.  Skywatch, Weekend Reflections and SOOC Sunday are really going to be neat, if I do say so myself.
Speaking of photos and memes, here I am with Spiderman, at the BEA.  This is my 50th Shoot Me entry.


 Kelly AKA the Church Lady, host "Shoot Me".  Go visit her to see who else played, today.
Thanks for stopping by, we enjoyed having you,
