Sunday morning Laura and family went to swim. She sent me this photo.
The LEGO website states reasons why this Tuxedo Cat is the best pet
“5. Your wool is safe with us
Cats love nothing more than unravelling carefully wound balls of wool. Hard to know why really, but it does look kind of fun while they’re at it. We can say with certainty that, with the LEGO Ideas Tuxedo Cat, your grandmother’s knitting bag is safe.”
December first- I got in my daughter’s car and found another Leaf on the windshield today.
I took a photo of it and said “ another leaf but with blue sky today.”
When we got where we were going (Worthington OH) Charlie (4) said
“I’ve got a Leaf on my window. I want to take a picture.”
I handed back the phone and he took the second photo.

After the OSCC swim meet at Worthington today, my DIL was driving.
Had my phone out and was able to capture part of this message created with plastic cups stuck into the chain link fence.
When I googled, I found out it was Coach Stephen Gussler, Jr. who taught and coached at the high school, whose name was on the fence – the one who will be loved forever by his baseball players and students at Worthington High School.
Here is a video about him and the lives he touched. There’s a Guss Strong Community Page on FB,too.
Maybe we’ll be down in Worthington again so I can capture the whole message in the fence.
Saturday night. Where we ended up after driving around the city, and dinner out with James (my SIL2B) and my sister Mary in from NYC to visit the family in Columbus. Mark and Erika had gone out and had a sitter so we went out, too. Cocoa and coffee, lemon poppyseed cake and finger-picking acoustic music we enjoyed so much that Mary bought 2 CD’s, one for Matthew in Croatia and one for James, who picked this spot to round out our evening together. Scottie’s Coffee and Tea House was a welcoming venue and the live music was a bonus. Shohei Toyoda played well to an appreciative crowd, lots of energy and enthusiasm and lively music. Great sound. Played some of his own compositions and they were quite good. I asked him if I could blog him during the break and he agreed.
Live Music

Listening to live music.
Makes for a satisfying
Saturday night.
