Big storm coming here in the next few days. Shouldn’t be a problem in my ‘hood, but the burned areas could get quite messy.

Mudslide fears?

7 has been achieved.

Nice story tonight on the PBS Newshour about the efforts in Altadena to set up a new school quickly so the kids would have in-person classes, see their friends, and have a sense of continuity. Not only did their school burn, but many also lost their homes.

Good night.

Yes not sure if it’s the same but Altadena has a school named for a Black activist woman buried in the cemetery, a place that managed to escape relatively unscathed due to some groundskeepers battling flames.

DR Laura, I see there was a jet collision at the Scottsdale airport. I hope no one in your family or circle of friends was involved.

Oh, my goodness! What is this...the fourth airplane accident in the four weeks since tRump became prez??

Today was a day!

George · « **Reply #188 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:04:26 AM »

I stayed at my mom's last night and she has been having no problems with any back pain!

George · « **Reply #189 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:04:44 AM »

And the surgery pain is lessening every day.

George · « **Reply #190 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:04:59 AM »

SO, I don't have to stay overnight anymore!

George · « **Reply #191 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:05:33 AM »

Not that I really minded it (my mom, you know), but it's nice to sleep in my own bed with my own pillow.

My friend Margo is out of town for a medical procedure for her dog, so I went to her place and made sure everything was okay.

George · « **Reply #193 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:08:10 AM »

I checked the mail and brought it in.

George · « **Reply #194 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:08:34 AM »

The feral cat's litter box was scooped, and food was filled and water was replaced.

George · « **Reply #195 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:09:03 AM »

And I made sure that the Christmas tree that's still up has enough water in it.

George · « **Reply #196 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:09:52 AM »

She ALWAYS keeps her tree up as long as she's able...or, at least a month longer.

After that, I went to the Grocery Outlet a couple of blocks from her house and just wandered around.

George · « **Reply #198 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:10:57 AM »

I only got a couple of things, but nothing that I really "needed."

George · « **Reply #199 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:11:08 AM »

And then I came home.

George · « **Reply #200 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:11:18 AM »

Gratuitous Post #200!!

George · « **Reply #201 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:11:30 AM »

And NOW, I need to ketchup on today's posts!

We'll see how far I can get before BK has to lock the day.

The world can continue - my WalMart had meatballs again.

On a different subject I have a meatloaf in the oven.

What a coinkydink! At my mom's late this morning, she and I made some meatloaf in small tins to be frozen so that I could have some to bake whenever I want some.

George · « **Reply #208 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:32:06 AM »

We made five little loafs. She only wanted one, and I took the other four.

George · « **Reply #209 on:** February 12, 2025, 12:32:34 AM »

At first, we made one test loaf that turned out quite good, so then we made the other five.
