I found it as the motto of California suggest.  I have discovered my cell phone. It was in my purse all along.  Somehow I had stored it in the zippered side pocket.  When I emptied my purse, I did not look there because I never put it there.  I only found it because as I put it in my locker, I noticed a rectangular lump.  I am very happy to find it.  It made my day .

My aunt has left to return home.  She was here for three weeks.  It was a wonderful visit.  She is going back to Oregon to freezing temperatures.  I am glad I not going there.  I had convinced her to do puzzles and she was surprised that she loved it.  She became obsessed with them.  She is only doing the 100 piece puzzles. She had never done a puzzle.  I want you to know I have lost my phone.  If you do not get a answerm that is why.  No Twitters, no worries, mates, no phone.  I will give it a few days but I will get a new phone.  Thank god, I have insurance for it.   

The top of my list of things I am grateful for is my family.  What a wonderful thing to see us all together.  My Aunt Carol was able to join us this year.  Mom, Carol and I went to Jennys for Thanksgiving.  Jeramiah wanted to cook the turkey.  Jenny was a great organizer and made sure that we had all the traditions fulfilled.  I do think we were missing anything.  Mike brought along three friends, Mike Wheeler, Liz and Wesley.  We did the usually pot luck so it required minimal efforts to put the dinner together.  We all sat around and caught up with all the happening in our life.  Robbie was unable to join us because he had to work. We missed him.  I finally was able to present the Christmas bulbs to everyone on time this year.  I even put out the Advent Calenders..I want to thanks everyone for their hard work and know that Gma and I really love you all.

Well here I am trying to clean up my house for my Aunt Carol’s visit.  I still have my head cold but I am feeling a little better.  I think this is a reaction or side effect from my new eye drops.  Hopefully the doctor can offer an alternative medication.  Good News :  I am taking an idea from Charles to count the positives in my life.  So I will try to put in a good news segment to my blog.  I have finished the holiday schedule for work. It took me 3 days to complete. I am so glad it is done.  I have already completed the January planning sheet.  I feel like I am ahead because it is due on December 1st.  I am going to enjoy the feeling because it is so fleeting.  hehe
