Today was the appearance of our Clown Prince (the festival mascot, played by our friend Angel) and the festival Court, who helped serve customers at Elmer's restaurant. We were excited about it, because it's our favorite Elmer's right here in our neighborhood ( Read more... )

Last night I really, really didn't feel well. I had a very stiff neck and a touch of headache and I was afraid I was going to have a bout of vertigo (which I have very rarely now, thankfully!). So I took a Meclizine before going to bed. I was also nauseous, so I tried one of our new anti-nausea medication Marilyn and I bought to try: Nauzene. The ( Read more... )

As you can see, I have a couple of weeks to catch up here. And they've been busy and eventful days, so it's NOT going to be that easy ( Read more... )

Today I discovered Pixabay.Com for the first time ever. It's an amazing website! You can read all about the site at their ( Read more... )

Some time back (I'm not sure when), my customized theme at LiveJournal stopped displaying correctly. For whatever reason, the text would just run off the edge of the text area of my blog. I doubt most of you have ever viewed my blog the way I do, but I use 'Mochachino' that uses the Smooth Sailing theme. I've added my own background image of books ( Read more... )

Well, my vertigo kicked in full steam in the middle of the night. Actually, I've been having headaches, which I never do normally. It's generally a sign of vertigo for me. That, and a stiff neck. I drank champagne at "Newsies" because I was already going there (and alcohol often helps me to deal). But sitting sideways to the stage may have made ( Read more... )

I'm typing fast, as I got the notice that LJ is going to be down for two hours. So just in case ( Read more... )
