We also went to a friend’s surprise birthday party at Nonna Emilia. She was surprised, and the food was, as always, really good.

They were wanting to come in to see how the painting was going. We let them in.

Dinner at Maggie’s was followed by nice conversation outside on her back porch complete with a fire and some good wine.

After painting Maggie made us dinner. Yum. It was good. Her signature dish… basil chicken. Very tasty. A definite keeper.

One of the things we’ve done in the last couple of weeks is to help Maggie paint her bedroom in her new house. Here it is, after the first coat. Pretty great color and a very nice painting job. Oh yeah.
Hey folks… Just wanted to say, I’m still here. We’ve been swamped with all things life. A trip down to San Jose to visit with Karen’s family (had a great time with them), watching election coverage (including watching all manner of news programs we normally don’t watch but are now hooked on), trying to get the new puppy house trained (girls are tough), buying a new rental house (that makes two so far) and starting the work on it, and generally running around like mad women with our heads cut off. Nice metaphor for this All Hallows Eve don’t ya think? Heads off… yeah, it’s good.
So don’t you all worry… I will be back, and back regularly, very soon. I’ll also get my image – ination site up to date as well. I have loads of photos, I just haven’t uploaded all of them and haven’t posted in a couple of weeks. Wow. A couple of weeks. I’m lame.
