This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

Thanks to Jrand and the Dream-o-magic. I now have an entirely different perspective on the humble chimney sweep. ☺️

We spent the day in Portland with Bryan and his family :) :) :)

We will return tomorrow, and then they are going to Mt Hood to ski with friends for a couple of days.

I have not watched any of the Oscar nominees and, frankly, don’t have a lot of enthusiasm to do so. Movies just aren’t as much fun as they used to be.

We met up with them in Powell's where Freyja was having a wonderful time purchasing books and stuffed toys while her parents appreciated the no sales tax.

Hi, John G.
That German chocolate pie looks quite enticing. Did I not mention that I’m trying to eat less chocolate?

 ;D ;D ;)

Past Lives last night was about a couple getting together after 24 years. Shoulder Dace, the next feature tonight, is about a couple getting together after 24 years. The difference is that this is a gay couple.

Today was a nasty day at work. Half our team is still out. Our hold time got over an hour. It doesn't make for pleasant callers once they finally get us.

It was.  Bryan & Kate miss Powell's.  We then went to the lovely Chinese Gardens.  After eating we went to a Japanese toy store and played there.

We all know waiting a long time can make us a bit grumpy once we finally reach a live person.  At least you speak English ;)

I’ve long felt that phone trees are unfair to the reps. Long waits are, too.
