I'm home! Shut out of my house because Matt has my keys. About to have pizza....yummy!

I'm off for a weekend of unadulterated fun! Houston to see La Traviata starring Renee Flemming and my very good friend Marjorie Owens. Yes, then we'll hang out saturday, go to Mass on sunday, and then to Adrian's sister's house for Liliana and Alejandro's birthday party. Should be fun!

The baking turned out well, despite flickering lights, things falling apart, and more toothpicks holding it together than I can count. It should be fabulous!

The street lights are out. The power is flickering. I've run out of candle holders.

We're having a lightening storm here. I really don't much like lightening storms unless I'm far enough away for them to be impressive. The power keeps flickering. I've lit a candle so that at least I won't be left in the dark if the power goes out. I wish I had more candles. Maybe I have some in my cardboard chest. I can't remember.

Yes, the Visitation by Frank Peretti was just as good this time as the last time. I need to find a new author to read. I've read everything in my collection half a dozen times.....

I've been baking. My kitchen was formerly the only clean room in my house, and it is that no longer. I have batter everywhere. I hope this turns out, otherwise I'm going to be very sad.

Two cops are wandering around the apartment building looking slightly suspicious. Do you think they found out that I had an illegal cat here last month?
