We've had two, going on three, days of beautiful weather. All the windows are open and it's cool and lovely. Kitten got his first taste of outside since I got him. I had the door open Saturday afternoon and the big cat wandered happily out to roll in the dirt and bask in the sun. Kitten stood in the doorway for a few minutes, ventured just outside and came racing back in like his tail was on fire. It's a much bigger world out there that he imagined, I guess.

We'll catch up in the beautiful weather department in December. I hope.
We've already had one thunderstorm this morning. Saw a chunk of rainbow on my walk this morning. But, the temp has gone back down to 79 after the rain! ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
I should sell skin treatments. Yesterday we had a 'do' and cookout at the church. The humidity was about 100%, and the heat was pretty hot. Sit in that for an hour or so, and you get that dewy glow that so many folks pay good money for.
Guess I should stop playing on the Ship and go to w*rk.

We spent the day at Chincoteague yesterday. Absolutely beautiful weather, and not too busy, now that Labor Day has come and gone. Today it is a perfectly glorious day in Williamsburg. 73 degrees, sunny, not too humid, lovely breeze. It is nice to be able to open all the windows.
There is a blue jay outside screaming its head off, saying the peanuts and sunflower seeds we put out for the birds and squirrels are "Mine, mine, mine, MINE!!!!!"
I was once sitting with a dear friend who has a genius for observing things very clearly, and we were watching a blue jay out on the porch. She said, "We don't think much of them, but if there weren't so many, people would drive 100 miles to see a blue jay." I think about that a lot. They're pushy and noisy, but they really are quite beautiful. And too smart for their own good.

We are also blessed with a pair of jays. If I am late putting out their sunflower seeds on the porch railing, the female throws herself on the screen door, making in bang and she keeps yelling loudly.

Ah! I'm sure that w*rk is a plot to keep me out of mischief. Sometimes it even works!
We had a beautiful early morning! On my walk, it was about 72 degrees, and the humidity wasn't unbearable. The cold front to our north will not make it here. Maybe next month!!

Looking forward to the next few days. Hubby offered to work the bar for me tonight so I could get to bed early. Opening day of bow season is tomorrow and I'm ready. So it will be up at 4am, hunt til about 10, then work the bar for a few hours. Leave the bar, go to the wedding of a couple of kids who are very dear to me, then back to the bar for a combination of their post-wedding party and a good friend's birthday. Sunday will be sleep, hunt and grill out with some buds in the evening.
Sometimes, life really is that good

personally, yes. House is out of town and up a hill. I'm doing my fourth night as Public Information Officer at Incident Command, so while I'm involved up to my chin, it's in a very safe and warm, dry way. Kids, dogs, etc all safe and dry also. As I said to someone else who asked during the evacuation - I'm in a firehall surrounded by amped up rescue personnel; I'm probably the safest person in the whole valley.
We got very lucky - no fatalities or serious injuries that we're yet aware of. A miracle, really. You tell a bunch of stubborn Alaskans to evacuate their house and they suddenly become homebodies. A friend of mine (idiot) tried to stay at her place to "protect" her piano. How was she going to do that? excellent question. We did finally get everyone out, it was just some teeth pulling.
lots of stories, most good. I'll share just one. (I'm putting off writing another release) down in Willow a few homes went walkabout. My neighbor got a call from a guy who said, "you know your friend so-and-so, who's out of town? can you call him up and ask him if he still wants his cabin? Because it's in my front yard."
I got a kick out of that.
okay, no more slacking, back to work.

Mr Image and I are thinking we are starting to circle the drain, and so are arriving at the time of life when we need to downsize to town and something smaller without land to keep up. So much stuff to sort, donate, sell, and throw out. Honest we are not big collectors, but after 45 years of marriage stuff accumulates. I wish I was one of those rich people who could just go away to "my other house," on some warm island and come back after the STAFF has sold our house, found us a smaller place and taken care of the moving chores. Come to think of it that is what our cat will be doing, minis the island part. The adventure is exciting, but the work part of it is not turning me on.

This morning, I went to the funeral for a dear friend of mine. It started out as a fairly traditional service, they played Amazing Grace, the Baptist preacher said all the right words, and then they played the song that Miss Pat had always said she wanted played at her funeral. Pat was a huge fan of Kid Rock, and her favorite song of his is called Only God Knows Why. I am positive the preacher didn't listen to the song beforehand, because the version that got played was the one you can't play on the radio. The look on the preacher's face when the lyric "A lot of folks fuck with me," came lilting out of the speakers was priceless. I had to choke back laughter. It was pure Miss Pat.

Well, in the preacher's defense, there is a more sanitized version that is often played on the radio. He may not have realized the original version was quite so raw...

You got me thinking on funerals and I remembered that my dad's funeral was the only one I know of that required back up pall bearers. It seemed so simple, the funeral home takes casket to the cemetery for a grave side service. How hard can it be? Turns out that the cemetery was to hilly for the hearse or rollers that are used for most of the transporting of the casket to get any where in the cemetery but one spot near the front. My dad's grave was in the far back corner. The pall bears were me, my brothers and a couple of my uncles. Less than half way my uncles subbed out for younger arms. By the time we finally got to the grave I thought my arms were about to fall off and it took me a good five to ten minutes to speak with out huffing. I swear he would of planned it that way if he could have. By the way the site is in what I think is the most scenic part of the cemetery.

The "scenic" you get from perfect level paths and tame surroundings can be lovely and Zen and restful, I guess -- but I bet the difficult access and winding hilly pathways are part of why that bit of the cemetery is the most beautiful.

MoBo and I just talked on the phone. She and JB are coming to my home town tomorrow and we'll have a little mini meet! St. Sebastian! I tried to call you! You should be there, too!
Merry Christmas! We sang 'O Come, All Ye Faithful' this morning. Our preacher had a dynamite sermon about turning things upside-down, and that fit very well. Plus the fact that our sanctuary A/C hasn't worked most of the summer, so we hoped singing a Christmas carol would help folks to think cool thoughts.
Just to add, I came within a hair of passing out in the heat this morning while doing my pre-service practice at the organ. That's the third time this month. ![[Help]](graemlins/help.gif)

We had a most delightful meet this evening with Motherboarde, JB and St. Sebastian,and My BFF. You can't have more delightful dinner and conversation partners!
We had more laughter at our table than all the rest of the tables combined. The waitress/ wife of the chef didn't help matters any, as she is a hoot! As our dinners came out, she paraded them around the dining room to a chorus of 'Ooh!' and 'I want that!'. I've surreptitiously looked at other diners' plates at various times, but I'd never seen dinners shown around in that way!
I think there may be a picture showing up sometime soon, but not from me, as I'm falling asleep typing this.
Night all!

In other news, I really just wish folks would warn me that my place was a scheduled stop on bike run. You know, so I can make sure I have enough staff, cold soft drinks, reserved bike parking...nothing important
GRRR!
we've been scheduled and announced as a location for funerals, meetings, snowmachine and ski races, and weddings. The meetings we're used to and don't mind. the races are a little crazy but not the end of the world. but weddings and funerals? We'd like notice! especially funerals. it's tacky having our regulars around the bar telling dirty limericks to each other. and a few years ago, we had to turn a wedding party away because it was on 4th of july weekend. FREAKING CALL!
