~When I Grow Up~
Here you go California Dreamer's....This is Michelle Shocked. I had never heard of her or any of her music before Kaiser Permanente used a 1:00 minute cut from this song to make an ad for Television on Healthcare.....And it's really a neat ad....I'll post it below...most of you living in California will surely recognize it!
Here's the T.V. ad....

Darn mud
Now trying to clean the mud.
Now to rebuild where our 'weakness' is & hope for the Best next rain due this Thurs.
Had city workers clean up mudpiles on streets & driveways.
Only 3 home got hit hard.
Now to beef up for next storm.
Been 50-60 F Temp wise.
Rain due thurs? Possible.
NO one saw this storm coming then wham 20 min & mudslides.
For those hillside bound, check Drains, conduits & Clear debris.
Lay sandbags, open up drains etc.
Clear alleways etc for smooth flow.
ALL hillside homes nationwide post forest fire.
Terrance backyards IF needbe.
Add fencing, rocks & mud dams.
The mud topped our mud dams.
FYI

~Where Do I Begin~ 'A Love Story'...
Hi Everybody....Haven't been here in a while....Sorry, thanks for not 'dumping' me....
Nonetheless, give me another chance.....I promise to try an be a little more current....'WOW'....it's been a long summer!
Here's a little something to ease me back in....hopefully!
One of my all-time favorites.....
LOVE STORY (WHERE DO I BEGIN?) Hey, I put the lyrics in here so you might sing along....I wasn't able to find a video, but this audio rendition is not bad....Enjoy!
Andy Williams
Where do I begin?
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start?
With her first hello
She gave a meaning to this empty world of mine
There'd never be another love, another time
She came into my life and made the living fine
She fills my heart
She fills my heart with very special things
With angels' songs, with wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go I'm never lonely
With her around, who could be lonely?
I reach for her hand
It's always there
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say
I know I'll need her 'til the stars all burn away
And she'll be there
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say
I know I'll need her 'til the stars all burn away
And she'll be there

Storm 1 over, ALL OK
Survived Storm 1.
All is in place.
Nice & warm now in the high 80s F from the 50s during the storm.
Hillside intact.
My dad was interviewed by CBS /KCAL TV while setting up water k-rail by driveway.
Now dreading storm 2.
Told winter storms are La Nina & will be worse than 40 yrs ago.
FYI.
Google Ocean View Blvd, La Canada to see Fire & Rain damage on hillsides in Satellite view.

One Third Of Women Pick Cell Phone Over Sex
I read this blog this morning on Yahoo. Interesting to say the least.
This is one woman that doesn't fall into this one third.
Then again, I've forgotten what sex is all about.

Readying for the coming rains
After the Station Fire, now we ready for the rains.
Sandbags aplenty & surveyors here on No Ocean View Blvd.
Google- Ocean View Blvd, La Canada CA.
Use Sat map for coverage.
The price of near rural isolation.
See Station Fire, 8-29-10-05.
Face steep hillside, some burn spots, clearing debris.
Pray NO rain.
