President Obama!  January 20, 2009

Book Group

Dailure:  Sunday afternoons, once a month, our book group meets:  Good conversation, good food and good women.  Need I say more?!

Rishi Tea

My friend, Kate, knows about this wonderful tea, called Rishi tea.  Silly me for thinking everyone drinks coffee.

Sun, sand and no humidity

I know it's not nice to gloat but I will because it's not about me.  This is about why living in Miami, in November through April is wonderful; sun, sand, surf and no humidity.  It's been in the 70's and beautiful!

Bosc pear

Went to the local farm store, Norman Brothers and bought five Bosc pears.  They were ripe (but still kind of firm) and sweet.  Perfect!

Emotional Signage

Daniel Pink has a website which includes a category called 'Emotional Signage'.  I was following a waste truck last month with this sign on the back.  

Purring Cat

Dailure, there's something very calming about holding a cat, in your arms or watching one, which is sleeping and purring at the same time. 

I would like to see mountains!  Living in Florida is nice but the landscape is, well there is very little landscape.  Palm trees look like telephone polls, even with holiday lights strung on them.

Daily Drag-12/25/08

Christmas....Bah Humbug!  There's something in the air and it's not the snow in Miami.  There's a feeling of impending doom.  What's going to happen in 2009?  How many more jobs will be lost?  How many more people will not be able to keep their homes?  

Shopping Malls are a Drag

Daily Drag
I would say being in a shopping mall around the holidays qualifies being under the 'Daily Drags' category. Because I'm lazy and a procrastinator I get what I deserve; suffering with the throngs of other lazy and procrastinator type of people. And people were NOT in a good mood today. I detected quite a lot of tension, wonder if it has anything to do with the ECONOMY? Duh.
