SUNDAY....

 Overcast today and going its going to be in the seventies.  I have started addressing my Christmas cards, shows you how bored I am.  Getting an early start is probably a good thing since I send out one hundred cards every year.  This year it might not be as many as I have lost friends and relatives through death. I should probably pare the list down, but when I do I get a card from the person I have decided to eliminate.

I have been home this weekend sitting on my butt due to my back. Mikee loves it.  He keeps coming up to me and meowing his pleasure and wanting to sit next to me or get on my lap. Camille on the other hand wishes I would go away and never come back.

Desi called me yesterday on his way to another town to pick supplies up.  That was the excuse to find a Starbucks, but more to find the NY Times and Wall Street Journal. He is feeling deprived in the one horse town where  he is building his shopping center and restaurants. He said he was working this weekend to be able to come South next week. 

I was hoping he wanted to come back for me, but the truth of the matter is he has two meetings on Thursday with the Sheik's representative that wants him to come to Morocco.  He did ask where I wanted to go on Friday and named a place in South County that has a dance band.  Now, if I'll be able to wear heels and dance is the question.  I guess if I pill myself up enough I'll be able to do anything.


His purpose on calling me was to check to see how I was doing so I suppose that shows a little interest on his part.  When I said something about his meetings not making me happy, he said, "remember nothing is set in stone yet."  Maybe not, but the cement seems to be drying.

  I also mentioned that Morocco was really third world and he announced that Spain, Paris, etc were only an hour plane ride away.  Since he has spent years in and out of Europe and has lots of friends there I'm sure he won't be missing female companionship.  Read SEX into that statement. Do I really think he will be away for three years and be celibate, NO! Of course I can add that to my end of the world too.

My very good friend called me last night on her return from Oregon.  She was checking to see how I was doing.  One thing about my girlfriends, they keep everyone apprised on what is going on with everyone  They are taking me out for my birthday next month, the restaurant of my choice.  I decided on a continental Italian place, Pizzelle's that is close by and has terrific food.  It is a small place but very charming.

This is another week, coming up, with most days taken up with lunches, meetings etc.  We will see what time Desi will be here on Friday and then Saturday night I have an event to go to with another gal.  I"ll let everyone know, should you care,what goes on.

Ciao!
