I see wet pavement. I see eerily still trees. I see a cat asleep at my feet. I see Billy. I see Jenny. Do you remember Romper Room from '60s TV days? Yesterday's music practice went fine. Except that Jack became Mr.Grumpy Gills a few times. I hope he is OK. Today it's back to Guitar Center. Gotta make money for wet food for Kitty. How is your Tuesday shaping up?

I just came back inside after checking the mail. It's a beautiful day with a temp of 60F at noon. I've slept once this morning and was woken by a phone call asking me to donate money to a police fund. I hung up and blocked the number. But I'm awake now and playing on myLot. I hope work for you goes well today.

Do you get the phone calls where the bot pretends to be a live person? Sometimes they even know my first name. If they ask how I am doing, I way, "Well, my hemorrhoids are flaring up."

@TheHorse No, I don't listen to them long enough for them to say more than what company they're calling on behalf of... I hang up, block and report them as spam. I don't play with people/bots. I just report them as spam so other people won't have to put up with them.

@DaddyEvil I wonder if anyone actually reads the reports.

@TheHorse But it's the rich colours of the leaves against the deep blue of the sky - we just don't get that over here. Too far north I think.

Heh. I think I took it here in CA. Note that it's only one tree!

When I read your title, it reminds me a song of It Will Never Rain in South California

It was so cold that we did not step out of our apartment. I removed all the Christmas decorations and stored them..

@TheHorse - The elbow I broke ages ago hurts today, let's hope not to see snow.

Tuesday's been and gone for me. We saw Stripes last night at the clubhouse. I'm not that keen on American humour but this was pretty funny.

Our days are pretty gray with less sun but at least the temps are in the 60s. I hope you had a good time at the Guitar Center,

Yes, I remember Romper Room. I was on the earliest edition of it before it became fun. I'm glad practice went well despite Mr. Grumpy Gills. I hope you had a good day at Guitar Center. Tuesday was good. I'm still in recovery.

I remember Romper Room well. On Tuesday I had an electrician come over to give me an estimate on several things that need to be done.
