more snow, more "cold"

supposedly down to 28 tonight in this area.
last night there were weird things with the computer: caps lock that i couldn't get out of for a while.
ketzl got two walks tonight. once before dinner with Jeff and Razmik, Charlie and Christine (Merit Cafe, excellent vegetarian food with three vegan desserts!!), and once after. the boys gave ketzl a crinkly tunnel. we'll see if he likes it. then we went to their house to see the new upsidedown christmas tree. with lights. very interesting. looks good.

clear crisp starry sky on the 2nd walk. orion's belt clearly visible. scarf around the face really helped.

just saw that Netflix unlimited is now 9 bucks a month. wow. that is pretty tempting.

chanukah is approaching. tonight was the preschool potluck. organized chaos. put a few tix into the raffle bags. we'll see tomorrow if i won anything. sunday is officially first night. jeremy and daniel and i will do something together. our traditional is a meal of just latkes. amazing how many pounds of potatoes one can eat topped with applesauce and sour cream. next weds my coworker marcy has invited me and charles our 91 yr old office volunteer to her mom's house. that will be a real trip. i've heard a lot of stories, but have only met a few of them.

tickets in the coat pocket: Jersey Boys from December 2006. Pippin (by Stephen Schwartz) at Foothill College, 2007 i think. Keep Not Silent, an israeli film about lesbians ...that was very powerful. hey, the date just changed on the calendar. cool.

i went to the "post office" at Leiter's Pharmacy today to mail a microwavable neck wrap to my father, a couple of cards. box to Pat goes tomorrow. almost forgot the swiss chocolate! i have a hard time there. that's the place that handles all of Hospice's prescriptions. and where Jeremy took all the leftover pills that were not narcotics. strange to be there.

almost ready to publish the LindAlphabet.
got from Jackie her words from May 18. a refined version. thx so much.

ok now i'm hearing the temperatures back east and in the midwest.
so we really are wimps.
