B-day came and went--I didn't mention anything about it but people have too many online gadgets that do the remembering for them. I got a luscious small chocolate cake--which was big enough for everyone to get a tasty slice. It was one of the most decadent desserts that I have ever eaten--and the Tillamook White Chocolate ice cream with Raspberry Yum multiplied the richness enormously.

The program that my daughter is doing--is working. She's come down to Earth--and is sorting through what she had been doing and noticing how much of what she was doing wasn't working. It's going to take awhile for her to get her thoughts around what she was doing (to herself and others)--and let go and get on with her life.

The two grandkids quickly noticed her absence--she's going to be in the program for about 30 days. There are visiting hours every Sunday--and they will visit with her then.

The two-year-old is really observant and present--and he's showing some signs of not seeing her around. He's also having to deal with spending more time with Grandpa and Grandma--which has its pluses and minuses. He's a really cooperative kid though--and hasn't been any problem with having t be shuffled around some.

I continue to feel that my energies are low--and I seem to run out of steam fairly quickly. I have been sporadically doing a few exercises--but I have to get back to the boxing place to get over this malaise and lack of focus.

I'm looking into the data on penny stocks in the emerging pot sector--the upside looks huge. I can afford to gamble a few pennies and play that market--and maybe I'll come away with a few more coins in my pocket (unlike what I did in the microcomputer, Internet, social media eras--  nada).

We have a smoke advisory on for this whole week--wonder if any of the fires are burning up the pot fields. If so--will cause the penny pot stocks to go even higher. Yum, yum--Raspberry Yum!
