Hard to believe we have been homeless and unemployed for five months!  The inconveniences seem to be settling into a reasonable, although not totally acceptable, rhythm which does tend to lower the stress level of living in a rolling box.

We are staying in the valley, aka silicon valley, and every one of our high tech instruments is acting strangely.  My computer is being stubborn, my cell phone refuses to stay charged and our navigation system has not the faintest idea where we are.  The birthplace of high tech and we get no respect from ours.

Spent the day strolling down memory lane.  Breakfast at a local iconic restaurant, visit to my cousin Cathy in Monte Sereno, drive to Franklyn Street where my Grandmother lived, down the street to Saint Clair’s where John and I were married, searched for Wilson’s Bakery and found out it went out of business 5 years ago, drove down Winchester Blvd to see the Winchester Mystery House, over to my childhood house and grade school, a few blocks over to my high school now a Senior Center and across the street to my college now a county building.  My life goes on but the places I remembered from my childhood have all been wiped away.  Tiny pity party…boo hoo…before California Pizza Kitchen for a snack and relaxing back at the LilyPad.
