New years Eve. Spent the late afternoon with the eight year old boy watching a movie, a kids movie I can't remember the name. We laughed and made jokes at various silly parts. The rest of the family were out downtown. We had the house to ourselves. When they returned they didn't know why we were laughing so much.

Late Sunday afternoon at Carmel Lagoon. Lots of families with kids walking, kids and dogs. the lagoon is now open to the sea. Fishermen in waders are fly fishing to catch the steel head trout trying to go up the river. I sit in my chair outside for about and hour and all the holiday tensions evaporate.

Began making a list of everything needing to be done in my hou se this coming year. Lots of little things. Don't know how to get them done. It is hard to match the job with a real work person. I need a good home repair worker. Guess I will ask my friends. The hardest job is finding shades for my ceiling skylight.

The rain has begun. I am at home. I wonder what my friends are doing. Should I stay home and read and get cozy or go out and look for some excitement. Probably stay home and stay dry. We need the rain. A leak has started in my bathroom. I have put a bucket under to catch the water. I will have to think about this later.

I drove to the Homeless coalition office at Fort Ord. I found the office out could not figure out how to get to the parking lot. there was no obvious entrance. I had to drive on a narrow road behind a bunch of abandoned barracks, down dark deserted streets to get to the entrance. I was able to find my way out after the meeting.

I have a paper bag full of old pine cones I had collected for the prayer flag part of the exhibit. but we didn't use them and now they sit under the table at the Cherry Center in Carmel . I should go over and throw them in the yard but I have this perverse desire to see how long they will stay in the gallery. It may be years before anyone notices them.

Sitting in the living room listening to the chain saws cutting away at some dangerous pine trees. the persistent cutting sound.
My roommate thinks it is PG&E fixing the telephone lines because a transformer blew several nights ago..
We are both too lazy to go over and see.. We just keep talking as if we know what is happening.

I don't have an umbrella. I almost never need one. Today I could have used one as the rain poured down. By the time I was at Juice and Java ordering my hot chocolate I was wet, my fair plastered to my face. A real down pour. When I left it was back to a light drizzle and I no longer needed an umbrella.

I cut two snippets from a geranium plant I have in a pot on my deck and then put them in the soil in the front yard in an empty space. they should grow with the rain coming later this week. I feel so powerful when I actually start plants by sticking pieces in the soil. It only works about 60% of the time , that is why I planted two.

No I didn't go shopping on black Friday. I don't know why anyone would. But I did acquire a new old couch from my son's office. My old old couch was breaking down and we took it to goodwill. Now I have this old couch sitting in my living room, an orphan that hasn't found it's place in the living room.

I went shopping at Trader Joe's on top of the hill today at noon. I got caught in a huge traffic jam in the parking lot unable to move forward or backward or sideways. All the cars were caught in together. Finally the person who caused the jam was able to park in a newly vacated spot and we were freed. I hate parking at T. J.'s. What kind of business model is it to frustrate car drivers. I think I will start going to safeway's where the parking is saner.

Went outside to pick up the mail from the mail box at 4:30 this afternoon. Looked up at the pink clouds as the sun was setting and I saw several crows flying towards Jack's Peak where they spend the evenings. It's a treat to catch them just as they are leaving or in the morning when they are returning to their stations.
