Thank goodness the amount of freezing precipitation we were supposed to get here was grossly exaggerated! They ended up canceling school for yesterday, but we didn't even have any ice. There were a few overpasses that iced over on the weekend, but they were further north than where I am. It barely got above freezing yesterday, and we had below freezing temps overnight, but it wasn't as serious as we were first led to believe, and we Texans PANIC when there is anything unusual about the weather. Now... our daughters in Dallas and Austin got full blown SNOW. It's beautiful, but I couldn't get used to it on a daily basis. I don't know how some of you do it! I guess it's what we are and aren't used to. How's the weather where you are?

Trees, Beautiful Trees
Yes, I love trees, even though I am highly allergic to many of them.
🌿 They make us feel calm
🌳 They connect us to nature
☀️ They make places more livable
🧠 They’re familiar and comforting
🐦 They support life

Cruising, on a Tuesday afternoon..
We are not home right now. We're in the middle of the Pacific Ocean on a cruise, and at the time this gets posted, we are likely headed to Ensanada, Mexico! This trip wasn't just coming out to California to hop on a cruise ship but also to finally meet my son's soon-to-be Mother-in-Law and her brother and his partner. I felt like I knew them already, but a formal meet-up was quite nice. DH and I also went to Universal Studios Hollywood. (I'm a big Harry Potter fan.) More about that later!
