Want to see one of the abalone shells my family's friend found on Thanksgiving Day? This is a really big one.

Speaking of my family, the same daughter reports on her blog, these facts:
The median salary in Monterey County, CA is now $34,000.
The median price of a home in Montery County is $l milion.
There seems to be little hope for a young couple there to own a home.
What a sad state of affairs. No wonder so many young families have moved to Seattle or to Portland.

My personal feeling about listening to Indian people speaking English is that they have a lovely, almost lyrical sound when they speak. (But I do wish they'd slow down a little.) And they always seem so gracious and polite.
I'm sure many of you read blogs written by people from India. Don't you find that most of them seem to write that same way? Such beautiful descriptive passages.
They really "show" us what they are talking about. I think it is a lovely part of their culture. I have met only a few Indian people myself, so I really shouldn't make generalizations like that. But this is true of all I have met, and all whose blogs I have read. If I am trying to create a stereotype, I am sorry, but at least it is a favorable one. Am I wrong in that?

OK. I just tried to go to my email. Yahoo seems to have sent me a page on which I am supposed to do a search. I don't want to do a search. I want to go to my email. But every time I try, I am told that address cannot be found. I can't seem to get anywhere except here to my blog. Well, at least I have this, so....
When I was out this afternoon I saw this by the side of the road. Thought it was pretty funny. Had to stop and take a picture. I'm glad someone has a good sense of humor about raking leaves.
When I saw it, I was on my way to be measured for a new pair of Rx shoes. As a diabetic, I do need to wear them.
I will never understand how my feet can be numb, (diabetic neuropathy) and still hurt so much. How can something be numb and hurt? They don't hurt when I'm walking in the Rx shoes. They hurt when I'm in bed, as I wake up in the morning. I have to get out of bed and walk around so they will stop hurting. Crazy.

I just went to Scroogle and put in, "How do I get rid of Quicklinks and get to my mail at Verizon-Yahoo". Boy! Did I get answers! Including one poor soul who tried to get rid of Verizon-Yahoo, and now warns everyone who has Verizon as their provider to Never, Never, Never go to Verizon-Yahoo! I agree whole heartedly, but it's too late for me. Once you have it, it's impossible to get rid of. And I really, really hate it!
Enough! More another day.
