BUSY US

From “Trappings” a show at the Mingei Museum, 2017.  When I was a kid, many horse in our holiday parades wore decorated saddles like this.

·       Busy me.  Sometimes busy is good.  I cheated yesterday by taking an unpermitted Aleve and flew through a housewarming and a seven PM meeting.  Flew through the morning workout today with ease too.  For the Housewarming gift, I found a set of dramatic black bowls at the shop.  I tossed a green Waldorf salad in the big one, and wrapped the two smaller in paper.  A very successful present.

·       The only problem I had, personally, at the party was a little old lady who knew the host as a child.  “I didn’t know John knew all these people; how does he know all these people,” she kept asking.  If she didn’t know he was a drunk, now was not the time to tell her.  One doesn’t say, “Oh, he’s in AA, and so are all these other folks.”  LOL

·       Off to smog Grumpy this morning.  His exhaust had been smelling terrible.  We used to drive to Vegas once a year to pick up the good injector cleaner.  This time we just ran two different kinds of injector cleaner through with his gas.  I need to ask how many more years Grumpy needs to be smogged also.  Smogging used to stop in California when the vehicle reached age 25.  I think the age has changed.
