It's Friday!

I am so ready for the weekend! It's not that I have great plans -- although there are a few things I want to do -- but it's been a long week. I started to write "a long scary week" because the economic news is so dreadful. Whenever I turn on TV that's the story on every news program.

I keep reminding myself that I am okay. I am currently healthy. I have everything I need.

It's the rainy season, my favorite time of year and the neighborhood is full of blooming fruit trees. I saw a squirrel running along our back fence - the first squirrel I've seen on our block since we moved in fourteen years ago - and two deer when I was driving to Santa Rosa this afternoon. There is life and it is good!

Oh, the pill bottles. I'm just practicing the lesson on drawing ellipses and they were available.
