July 7, 20197 yr It was kinda exciting @Linda Thomas. We rarely feel them here on the central coast. And it definitely won't be the last of it. If you Google California earthquakes you'll see we have 100's everyday but they're usually really small and don't do much if any, damage.

I tease my brother all the time (he is in Redondo Beach) about the big one coming. He just laughs at me.
July 7, 20197 yr Unfortunately you're probably right about the big one coming. Those are the scary ones...:(
July 7, 20197 yr Author G67 is in Cali too isn't he? Hope the earth stops moving for you. Saz always has the most interesting science.
July 7, 20197 yr Author On a happier note, I'm making triple choc chip bickies for the kid to take to her mates place tomorrow and the whole house smells yummy.

I am making a quadruple batch of Grandma's homemade sweet rolls for my Grandson's graduation party.
July 7, 20197 yr Author Oh do sweet rolls have cinnamon? I was going to make snickerdoodles but she wanted choc chip and some Anzac bickies.

July 10, 20197 yr I'm harvesting the catnip I grew in a planter this spring. Cut 4 pretty decent size branches that were flowering and have now hung them in the basement where it's cool and dark. We'll see how long it takes for them to dry. Fed one of the withered, brown leafs from the bottom of the branch to the cat and she gobbled it - lol. Now she's rolling around on the counter smelling the counter top where the branches were. Patience my flower .... patience. You will one day reap the rewards of this harvest Edited July 10, 20197 yr by reciprocity
July 10, 20197 yr I'm hoping the bacon I just had for dinner wasn't related to @reciprocity 😄 And yes, I'm having a beer 😋🍺

Does life get any better?

July 10, 20197 yr Author Wondering how pizza makes life better and not worse. Me, I'm far...nope finished.... Getting ready to clock off.

July 10, 20197 yr What I wouldn't give to have a piece of pizza or a steak. On the fourth week of three months of healing from dental surgery. Is it Donald Duck who used to lisp. That is what I sound like when I talk. Geez, I can't even yell at my husband with meaning.
July 10, 20197 yr Watching the weather and collecting water, arghhhh. Feeder band rolled in this morning with non-stop thunder/lightening and lots of water. All calm now, for the moment but, what a weird storm.
July 10, 20197 yr My husband was on vacation this week. I had a big Honey-Do-List. It is 90 degrees out there but we are painting the shed. Or I should say I am supervising painting the shed. He bought this great Wagner spray painter and it is going along quite nicely. (Though he did have to do the ladder a few times, which is scary at his age) This is really hard work supervising and thinking of all the things that new spray painter is going to paint........the inside garage walls, the closet doors, the basement and oh yes, my kitchen cabinets. We have been here 28 years and some updating is do.

July 10, 20197 yr I almost forgot ...... the other day when I went golfing for the first time in about 15 years, I found two lighters in one of my golf shoes - lol. No cigarettes, just 2 lighters. Go figure! Oh and I didn't have any trigger to smoke while I was golfing either. Never crossed my mind even once. I just realized that now. I used to smoke while I golfed of course so I'm a little surprised I didn't have any thoughts about smoking while I was waiting at a Tee box or something. Anyway, it's all good, except for the golf game. My score sucked big time!!
