February 18 - 24, 2008

2/18: What a day! Mike of ATT tried to repair our static-filled phone. BJ & Camille were here. Matt was driving me nuts. And Fidel Castro announced his resignation.

2/19: Silva of ATT finished the phone repair.
Karleigh Ann was born. She'll spend her whole life spelling her name. Seven pounds, 10 oz. 11:29 am.

Week of Solar eclipse & new moon 2/4 - 2/10/08

Dear Dairy--oops, Dear Diary !

I'd sure like to get a DVD of the California Cows Commercials. I tried about a month ago, but it didn't work out.


I didn't write much in the way of notes on things to remember.


Michelle Obama, Barack's wife, was born Jan 17, 1964 in Chicago. I was a goofy senior in high school at the time.



Feb 6, Wednesday: Marharish Mahesh Yogi died. He was believed to be 91. Died in the Netherlands.


Reminds me of Paramahansa Yogananda who wrote "Autobiography of a Yogo". He was part of my life about 1970. Virginia Lane & some others would get together & take turns reading his book aloud. Actually, I'm not sure why we did that, but it was a very instructive and interesting book. He died in 1952.

2/7: New Moon & Solar Eclipse.

2/8: Cancelled appt w/ Dr Brennan. My foot seems to be getting better with epsom salt soaks.

2/10: Courtney called. Talked about Obama & more. She's volunteering with kids theatre.

Jan 28 - Feb 3, 2008

News from the family in Illinois... TC from Mom/Shirley.

Her brother Tom in Michigan has two sons, Matt (who has two children) and Mark (whose wife is having twins soon, making three).

Her sister Connie slipped on the ice and fell on her face. Sounds awful. Connie's grand-daughter Delaney was 4 on Jan 19.

Kami is about to have a baby "any day now".

Friday, 2/1 ... Mike back for his possessions after a 2-wk rest at the local county jail. It was a very stressful day for me, not just because of Mike, but because Matt was being crazy at the same time. The result--at least Mike's truck was finally towed out of here & taken to the mechanic's garage. And Mike's not here.

Saturday: Recuperation day.

Sunday: Tried to take it easy. Went to town for short time. Worked at Cabin 6 for an hour. Talked to Becky & Gary. Gary's sister gave him a computer, but he doesn't know how to use it yet. Paul is visiting. Guppy may be taken by John.
