Sarah and Ethan

Sarah works for an orthodontist near me so she comes over and brings her lunch sometimes and sometimes Ethan meets her.  I enjoy having them around.

Where We Walk

There is a real shortage of workers because so many are drawing unemployment funds and this is an ad at the store Sadie and I walk to every day.  She loves the cool grass under the trees to roll in and do her duty each day.

Carole's Family on Mother's Day


 Bethany must have been taking the picture.  Jon and Chris in back.  Carole looks so pretty.
Raina and Sage are so grown up and cute Fin looks very sober today.



Mother's Day 2021

I did not go to any of the children's homes for Mother's Day but I did have cards, and messages from Linda and James and talked to them.  Linda has also taken me to my dental appointment and paid for it, that was much appreciated.




Maria came over and took both Michael and I to Chin's for dinner.  It was delicious.  Because of my teeth extractions, I stuck to the Assorted Won Ton soup mostly and it was delicious.  I did not eat any of the Cream Cheese Wontons.  I do not know why I had my readings glasses on??  Sadie could not get into grooming until the 28th!


Such beautiful red roses Maria brought over.  I could always count on Richard for red roses.  She remembered.

Gluten Free Bread, the Best Yet

I have been trying to use up my food before I leave and saw I had a bread mix I have never used.  In talking to Margot later I learned it was one she had sent me and I had not bought it at Albertsons.  It is the King Arthur Bread and Pizza Mix and costs $6.95 on their web.  Amazon has six boxes for $54 to $56 which is outrageous and changes from day to day.  It turns out though that it is the best I have ever made.  It is more like regular bread, not so dense and I even used Almond Milk and it tasted great.  Definitely will have to keep my Bosch mixer so I can make this again!!!!


 Incidentally, Bethany told me that in Utah I can find parts to my Bosch mixer so maybe I could get the blender replaced? 

I did try and make a duplicate bread out of the King Arthur gluten free flour but it was definitely not the same as this.

Massey Garden

When I left my home in Lake Almanor I took down the hanging handprints of the Massey children and gave them back to Meagan.  She sent over and showed that they are now hanging in their garden!!!

Church during the Pandemic

I am not sure why I took this picture or if it did it accidently but I have enjoyed being able to listen to church without any problem on my phone because my hearing aids bring in anything I get on my phone such as books and this Zoom very clearly.   I can hear so well now with my Costco hearing aids.  I prefer to listen to church this way now all the time.

Easter Lilies and A Laugh

The Easter Lilies Meagan brought over have bloomed so beautifully.



The mess I made when I tried to shred and transfer the shredings to a garbage bag really made me laugh.



It was made even worse by the face I had on fuzzy sox that picked up the shreds and I had a trail all through the house!!!

Eden's Quilt

I have been letting family choose items I just cannot keep anymore as I will have no storage at Treeo.  There were a number of blankets up for grabs when the Massey children were there and Eden immediately spoke in a quiet voice.  "I would like that one." And it is perfect for her.  Here she is getting her report ready to share on her "Interesting Item" at school.

This quilt was a gift of a wall hanging when Richard and I moved into our Rancho Bernardo house or possibly the children gave it to me when we were still in the La Jolla house for the small middle bedroom.  I cannot remember which now  But it is beautiful and will look lovely on her bed.
