So...I've tinkered my sidebar slightly, adding several new links plus images of books I'm reading or have read. I'm in discussions with Cluster Maps about the disappearance of my red dot collection after they archived my visitors recently. But since the map never comes close to reflecting my stat counts anyway, it doesn't really matter.
Yesterday, while the Chap and I dined at a Mexican restaurant in Concord, the clouds parted and we had a rare glimpse of sunshine. It was a lovely evening...but all morning the clouds have been gathering. More rain on the way....
The box I shipped from Anaheim has arrived. I gave the Chap his gifts and set aside the Christmas ones. At the Hmong people booth--where I purchased many items including my skirt--I picked up this shiny lizard. The Chap's nickname for me includes the word "lizard" so I thought I needed this one.

The Chap departed this morning to attend an out-of-state family event...our post-Anaheim time together was brief.
After he left us, Jewel gazed wistfully into the distance.

Ruth reminds me I'll be doing double duty on tummy-scratches till the Chap returns.

The rain is now falling--our respite wasn't very long. Another afternoon fit only for sipping tea and working on the novel.
