You don't have to be perfect to be awesome!




Today is Skipper's 62nd birthday.  Tomorrow is Cheri's 62nd birthday.

Yesterday, dad went to exercise and out for hot dogs and ride with Bill.  I took Luigi to PetSmart and had him groomed by Ethan.  He looks really cute.  I went to the movies and saw "Lorax" - an animated film.

This morning the cleaning ladies are coming.  Then dad and I are going to Pleasanton to Uncle Joe's and Auntie Isabels.  They got a new telephone with a new answering machine and I believe we are going to help them put in their telephone numbers.

Lots of fun.  Got the new telephone all set up with date and time, outgoing message and some numbers entered in.  Then we all went out for lunch to The Habit Burger Grill.

You are a treasure beyond measure.

Went to Jim's Hair Salon and had my hair cut and colored this morning.  Dad took his scooter and went to the dining table at the clubhouse.  Busy day.  Good day.

One person can make a difference.

Today dad and I are meeting Uncle Joe and Auntie Isabel for lunch at Wendy's in Castro Valley.  Lots of fun.

Afterwards, dad, Luigi and I - and Bill and Sadie - went to the park across the street.  Lots of fun.  Wore the dogs out.  Dad and I came home and made a fresh batch of oolio oolio - Delicious!

Follow your heart. It knows you best.

This morning, dad and I went to the movies and saw, "The Artist".  It is the silent film that I just saw in Redwood City last week.  I actually enjoyed it more the second time around.  Then we came home and picked up Luigi and took him to the park.  Lots of fun.  I think he actually got a little tired today.  He has been calmer and laying down.  Then dad and I made oolio oolio.  Delicious!

You're allowed to put yourself first sometimes!

Nice warm Saturday.  Spent about four hours running around alone getting lots done.  Then stopped at the library and picked up two W.C. Fields DVD's from around 1934 and brought them home and dad and I watched them.  Lots of fun.

In the car, listened to my new William Shatner CD, "Has Been".  I love it.  I love it so much that I downloaded the whole CD onto my computer and posted one cut, from Track 3 - "You'll Have Time" or also known as "You're Gonna Die" - onto Facebook.  This is the link posted below.

Happy 87th Birthday Dad!



Dad and Skipper


Today is dad's 87th birthday.


Dad is going to exercise this morning and then to the clubhouse dining table.

Then we are meeting Uncle Joe and Auntie Isabel for lunch at Denny's in Pleasanton.  Had lots of fun.


Dad and I took Luigi to the park across the street.  Met really nice people and had a great afternoon.  No one celebrated dad's birthday at the dining table at the clubhouse this morning.  Our young friend, Carlos, age 57, who has bad seizures, died suddenly last night from seizures.  Poor Miguel, who has become a very good friend with Carlos, was crying so hard.  This is such a shock and a loss.  Carlos was the sweetest, nicest person.  Dear Carlos, may you be healthy in the afterlife.  You were always an angel right here on earth.

Brendon's Wedding Video




http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y9Jhk1QMm4&sns=fb

Hope this video shows up.  It is so cute of Brendon dancing at his wedding.  Maybe try cutting and pasting the url if you can't just click on it.

Miguel stopped by this morning and brought dad a Denzel Washington DVD to watch.  And he gave us ideas of where to eat lunch.  Two were for fish and chips.  The first one we went to is closed for repairs.  The second one would not take credit cards.  Dad does not use an ATM card and does not like to use cash.  So we left.  We went to San Leandro to La Pinata 2 Restaurant and had delicious mexican food.  Enchildadas.  On the way home we ran over to Walmart and did some quick shopping. 

We called Auntie Isabel and checked on Uncle Joe's cataract eye surgery today.  Sounds like everything went well.  He is wearing a patch and taking pain medication.  Tomorrow he has two separate follow-up doctor appointments.  In-between the two appointments, we will meet them for lunch at Denny's in Pleasanton.
