Good morning!!
Laura, thank you for those encouraging words..... I do feel like I will find something -- I just don't know what yet. Sometimes it's fun to think about and sometimes it's just daunting.
Paula, there's four outdoor rinks that are next to a big baseball field, I think also near the government offices. At the corner of Barranca Parkway and Jamboree Rd.
Though I always liked tooling around Irvine and finding places to eat, the rinks at Huntington Beach are nicer because they're indoors. Funny story, one time some kids wanted frozen yogurt, and I found whatever that big chain is on the map in Irvine. We head to it and as I'm pulling up I think "this is odd -- it looks like an office building" but sure enough we walk in and though there is a woman at a desk at the front door, there in front of us is the familiar yogurt server yourself counter. The kids charge on toward that and the woman frantically says "excuse me, excuse me!" Turns out it was their headquarters building, not a shop! and that was for employees. So funny!!
Anita, those are interesting observations -- I know what you mean about the broken nail! Not that I feed earthworms to anyone, but there's always a bit of an adjustment.
My father in law was Professor Kirk McVoy -- not sure that rings a bell. I'm honestly not sure what type of professor he was, but recently one of his students tracked down my husband to tell him what an impact Kirk had on his life. That was pretty cool for my hubby to receive. Kirk died in 2004, I believe it was.
Oh, my workout this morning was Pahla's day 10 -- I added on day 9 yesterday later in the day. I'm not sure her weight loss challenge is doing me any good in that department but I think I have to remember to focus on being healthy, not my weight, because it seems to just backfire if I focus on my weight.
Have a great day!!
