Every day on my way to and from work I pass a high-toned hair and nail salon and a psychic fortuneteller. Sandwiched in between the two shops is a Colonic Hydro Therapy business. As if the idea of getting your nails and hair done plus finding out what your future will bring is not enough you can get colon hydro therapy. Their advertising just kills me every time I pass. In their big picture window are curvy tubes with bubbles going up and down them much like the old fashioned Christmas lights that bubbled.
I guess I am just not sure in what order you should be doing it all. Do you get your hair and nails done then your colon, finishing with the psychic? I just can't imagine going to have colon hydro therapy on a busy street in down town Burbank. It just seems so public. Who does that anyway? Fortunately I haven't met anyone who has shared that they regulary get their colon cleansed in a store front.
This past week has been beautiful. Very sunny and about 75 degrees. I am wearing sandal and summer clothes to work and I noticed in the elevator that everyone else had their winter shoes and coats on. I guess I was jumping the gun but it feels like summer to me. And anything over 70 degrees is sandal weather. Also since I am from Oregon my fellow co-workers give me a fashion break. They are still laughing about me walking in the rain without an umbrella. Distainfully, I told them Oregonian's don't own umbrellas. And that possibly we would hold a newspaper over our heads if we had to walk more then six blocks in the rain. I didn't tell them about the galoshes. Somehow I suspect they would be horrified.
On the celebrity watch, Michelle went to lunch in some chichi restaurant in Hollywood with her Naptser co-workers and saw Larry King having lunch at the next table. It is such the norm here to see celebrities.
I am going to see a lady tomorrow who is renting a bed and bath in her home in Burbank. She is around my age and has a roommate who is moving to Oregon. She is looking for someone quiet and mature and was very excited when I answered her ad on Craigslist. I will let you all know how that turns out. We talked on the phone and exchanged emails and seemed to hit it off. She has three dogs so I won't miss Maddie so much.
Michelle and Mikey's pregnancy is going very well so we will have a girl this June. I can't wait.
Speaking of grandchildren I am always amazed at the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren. What would shock and displease us in our children is just darling in our grandchildren. I was talking on the phone to Abyah who was in the car with Isaac, Jenny and Jaclyn. She was so sweet telling me all about school in this little soft genteel voice when she "farted" and broke out in a cackling laugh while everyone in the car groaned and rolled down the windows.
It is so good to read everyones comments to my blog.
Love and Miss you all
Until we meet again

Hi Carol: Thanks for responding to my blog. I just started it and was trying to post a second post when I noticed your comment. So glad to see it works! I changed it so it says anyone can comment. Thanks for the suggestion.
Your roommate sounds great. I hope it all works out for you. Glad your job is going well, too.
Enjoy your nice weather. It is still a little chilly here.
