Oh...the Weather Outside is Frightful

Everybody...join right in: "And the fire is so delightful. And since we've no place to go....Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow..."

No dear friends, please don't assume I've lost my mind completely --- but I've just put on my cushy cozy velour lounging set and it's pretty cold in our house tonight here in Sunny. This is just not right! We always prepare for June gloom, which is gray and overcast, but this is ridiculous! Who can I write to? To whom shall we address our petitions? Oh, dear.

As you may be aware....yesterday was our California primary. We turned on the channel hosting the incoming election returns and watched for a while --- there was a young man running for congress that we saw at church once (he didn't win). Only a couple of items made it to the ballot; it was a pretty low key year for us. (We do live in a suburb and most of the 'hot' items were for those in the big metropolis next to Sunny.) So as the announcers were interviewing one city council member, here was JJs comment: "You know, every time I see that candidate, I think of the vultures from Jungle Book. Don't you Mom??" And he started to sing the vulture's theme song.... The silly thing is --- the candidate's face and hair actually does resemble those cartoons.

Maybe JJ should pursue a career in editorial comics. There has to be some promise of success, eh!
