I was at the gym at 5:50am this morning.  The only chance I get to work out with my friend Kris (husband of my best girl friend), Always a chore to get up that early to get there, but always rewarding. 

I am very impressed you work out so early, kudos!

[Jane]

My mother worked for the USO, Entertainment Division, during World War II.  She always told me that the story of Glen Miller dying in a plane crash over the English Channel was created to protect his publice image.  She said that she was told that he died in the bombing of a brothel in Paris.  In the last few years, I have seen more and more biographers going with that ending.

Why a plane crash then, not just a neutral building that was bombed?

[Jane]

Good day, all.

And Happy Hanukkah.

Thank you.

[Jane]

Between these two eating opportunities, I will be involved with dealing with a personnel issue with one of my staff. I can't say any more than that, but I'm not taking the lead on this...my supervisor is (she has a LOT more experience than I do in these kinds of matters, which is none at all).  Hopefully, this will get resolved quickly and easily.

Well, I don't know if the situation is resolved exactly, but we had a meeting and hopefully things will at least be better...hopefully.

Good luck!

[Jane]

DR ELMORE vibes that your prayers are answered....quickly.

DITTO!!!!

[Jane]

Thanks for the vibes.  I still don't feel too great.  Does anyone know what you are supposed to drink when your throat seems blocked by phlegm?  Every once in a while my throat feels all blocked up and sort of have to cough but it's hard to breathe. Hot showers seem to help. I have been gargling with salt water and drinking warm things.

Fluids to keep everything loose so you can cough it up.  I have heard Mucinex works but I didn't try it with this cold I had.

FEEL BETTER VIBES FOR DR TCB!!!

If we had not already given little Elinor, lover of dinosaurs, her Chanukah gift this would have been tempting.

I passed a millstone and George didn't record it???

Had a nice lunch at The Smoke House.  And we've hired Michael Sterling to do our publicity for Inside Out, that is should we ever get beyond 10% of being funded.

Meeting Elinor's DARLING baby sister and taking Elinor her gift, especially since she invited us for Chanukah, was one motivation for us to take a trip there.  The other reasons is we are seriously thinking of moving to Washington, maybe Portland.

It is hard to imagine leaving our beautiful home but it is time for a change.  I would like to return to Los Angeles, if only it wasn't so crazy and expensive.  Portland also has traffic but not as much and for the most part we would avoid rush hour.

We have much to think about and much to do so please excuse me if I'm distracted at times.

I sent in an adoption application for a rescue Schnauzer - hopefully a brother for DD Ben.  Waiting patiently for a response.

I'm sorry that I missed the exact moment, but here's what I did get:

Washington?  Really?  Do you have an idea of where you're thinking...if it happens?

[Jennifer]

Feel better vibes for DR TCB~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[KevinH]

Good evening!

[KevinH]

Happy Chanukah!

[bk]

Jane why is distraction necessary.  Move back HERE, not Portland.  You're from here.  You can find something nice here, believe me.

Finishing up Birdman of Alcatraz.

The traffic drives us up a wall.  I would love to live near Santa Barbara, close enough to see people but far enough out of LA.  Still a bit far from LAX but at least we could fly out of there.  Flying from here limits where we can go with a non-stop flight.  California taxes are outrageous. 

Washington on the other hand is income tax free.  If one is over the border from Oregon they can shop sales tax free, the best of both worlds and we would be able to fly out of Portland or Seattle.

[Jane]

What is your opinion on this DR Jeanne?

[Jane]

I didn't realize the restaurant with the good bean & rice burger was part of a chain.  Has anyone eaten the Rock Bottom Brewery?  They started in Colorado.

[bk]

There are no taxes in California, and no traffic.  But none of that is important.  I'M here.  That is all that matters.  You can live near me - beautiful homes around here and I don't really go many places so traffic is rarely an issue.  You seem to be a stay put type of gal these days, so traffic won't be an issue.  LA misses you and we don't want you in Portland or Vancouver or even Vancouver or Portland.  It took a while to get Jeanne back here, but we're very glad she is.

I am thinking of moving to the bedroom at the opposite end of the house.  I am not sure what the tax ramifications are.....I will have to study the traffic situation as well.

[Jane]

We came back to the west coast for me and seriously did consider moving back to California & closer to LA, until we went for Thanksgiving.  I might be able to handle it but Keith can barely tolerate it. 

We go and only have time to spend with family and wish we were closer so visits with family and friends could be more often and relaxed, not everyone at once.  I say more often, as you know we basically see our families and then leave.  The upside of leaving paradise, wherever we move, is our visits to LA might be longer without having to rush home to take care of things here.
