best and bravest girlfriends

 Well, this is more ME and a good remedy for whatever might ail anyone, even Laura Ingalls Wilder. Ride or Die stars Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso) and Olivia Spencer (The Help) and is a lot of fun as well as some blood (mostly bad guys) along the way. A lot of fun scenes in London. Also great to see Bill Nighy again as the M16 (?) Director. This is called a Spy Thriller, but it's way more. On Prime. 

mani/pedi with Miso

 I tried a new nail salon in the neighborhood and despite some minor language difficulties, I was pleased with the results. Of course I really loved having this sweet lap dog hounding me. This place is within walking distance and that is a plus. Success. I will return.

the local news

 This was horrible, and unusual. The SF Bay is usually calm and boat accidents are rare. And this was a 49 foot cabin cruiser with three decks that capsized and sank quickly last Tuesday afternoon. Local boaters and fishermen and the Coast Guard rushed to help but it seems like 4 died while 17 were rescued. Such a tragedy for the passengers who were scattering aches and honoring someone who had passed away.

toe box talk

 I bought new dress shoes yesterday. Yes, I'm hooked on Hoka. I have tried other shoes, but this brand remains my favorite. And I always enjoy a trip to Sports Basement, such a fun and funky store. The shoes on the right are worn out and those on the left brand new. Updated and very fashionable, right?

and guess what?

 I started watching Little House on the Prairie just to make fun of it to the Blogmaid who is SUCH a fan. Well, I really like it and the plot moves right along with some good acting, especially from the kids. So I'm hooked and worried about the weather, the Osages, Mr. Edwards, Caleb and Jack, the dog. The Flix®.

Imperial Tea Court

 I met Pamela and Joe for lunch yesterday down at Ferry Plaza and we had a nice long session with jasmine tea and assorted "now what is this?" dumplings. There was a lot of catch-up conversation and much needed laughter. 

sweet goodbyes

 Heidi and Rob were wonderful to host a goodbye/good luck dinner for granddaughter Sam and her Luke last night. Doug and Barb were there to help ease the sadness and everything was very nice and we laughed and tried not to cry. I am so glad that I got to know this g.dot so well ~ fortune smiled on me.
