Here I am .. New Years Eve. Going to join Ralph and his girl friend Sue for an evening of eating and drinking. Linda has invited the rest of the building to a party in the community room. We were invited .. but we had already made these plans. Truth be known .. we would rather not go to THE party. Just staying out of controversy and confusion.
The refrence to Alan in the title .. RABBIT. Family secret.
Got to shower .. really over due. Want to make a No-Bake pumpkin cheesecake to take with this evening.
My world is good. After a not good experience wth a Home Care cleaning gal I got a good one yesterday afternoon. Lori is cheerful and talkative AND did a super super job. I look forward to a long relationship with her.
Now to the shower.
Awww .. so nice to be all cleany clean. Now for the cheesecake.
A place of calm and comfort to scrap and journal no matter how wild and wooly the world becomes.

Shopping with Dawn Marie and Tristan
Dawn was very good to take me shopping today. Being Saturday 9yr old Tristan had to go with .. rough on him. Shopping for a suitable dress for the upcoming Wedding. I am so looking forward to being the Grandmother of the Groom.
Looked at Lane Bryant .. nothing. Checked JC Penny .. found just the right dress and a nice little purse to go with. All were within my budget. A very good day.
Tristan tried so hard to help. Finding the right size for us checking color and price with us. He was trying so hard to help. Dawn found several items, not necessiarly for the wedding. Her items were all on very good sale.
We stopped at Game Stop for Tristan to shop. Dawn and I found a place to sit. I was happy that Dawn used the cane. It takes pressure off the knee. We both had walked a bit. Tristan saw no reason to sit .. he's 9yrs old.
Headed out and decided to eat at the Food Court. Tristan was hungery .. for sure. Dawn and I enjoyed eating and sitting.
Headed home .. mission acomplished .. and a good time was had by all.

9/11 2010
Well I'm watching the History Channel. 9/11 102minutes. Remembering the beginning emotions. Jerry and I watched. Was online with Alan. Now I do the remembering alone. The emotions and the resounding ..."WHY". The heros of the day, the Police and Fire Department. And I am sure, like me, they were saying "WHY". Even today .. I say "WHY"?

I am carless. Sold my ailing independence.
The new owner has a special needs child. She has a mechanic brother. She can afford MY CAR .. I cannot afford it.
I slept most of the day hiding from the realization .. I am carless.
Low income senior ... that's me. I have services avalible. Taxis, housekeeper and such. Taxis are nice .. I WANT MY CAR BACK.
If this is the worst I have to deal with .. I'll make it. I won't like it .. but I'll make it.

MEMORIAL DAY 2010
All is quiet here. Around the world wars and strife noise up the landscape. We are free to sit in our comfy homes and listen to the quiet. Because 'they' gave
their lives. Today is Memorial Day .. every day needs to be Memorial Day.

24
Wow...This was a rough one hour and next week, the final, will two hours. Good thing I don't have a weak heart. I'm gonna miss Jack and the CTU. Now on to Letterman and then on to bed.
And so I begin.
It is rainy and cool for mid May. The weather man assures us things will change. All who live in Ohio know the weather man is right. If you don't like Ohio weather just wait a minute .. it'll change.
Working on a mini for my grand daughter to put pics of her daughter. The great grand son's minis will follow. Pictures in the next wrighting. (If I can figure out
how to post them.) It takes a while, but I usually get there.
This evenings energy will be spent watching '24', no crafting.
