    hi faith, i have been enjoying reading about your latest project!  It sounds like it is going great!  I saw my name here and thought i better check in at the beach.  Unfortunately, we are having so much rain here now after our big snowstorms that stuck on the ground for 2 weeks and made this area come to a standstill, and doesn't usually ever happen that way up here.  Snow usually gets washed away by rain.  And now we are back to our usual "sideways" rain----can't use an umbrella easily because the rain comes at you from sideways.  ohh.. so depressing with dark grey skies, not that you can exactly look up at the sky or you would drown....sigh.....

    Here is one of my old haunts---the beach at San Francisco.  The beach is beyond the stone wall and down a bunch of stairs. 

    Faith, do you protect your guitar like this guy and his cello?

    Hi to all the beachies---faith, spar, julz, luv, coonie, marylou, sharon, checkum, dreamwriter, footie, winggirl, socal lisa, deborye, and sahalie (miss you!)  

    Hope the sun is shining for you wherever you are!!!

    Deb, sorry about your awful weather.  I hope you continue to stay safe.  I'm not a big one on storms.  The threat of flooding must be very scarey.  Hugs.

    Guess where I'm going today?? Back to the recording studio!! LOL.

    Today and tomorrow are our marathon days. Can we stand being cooped up in the engineering room for more than six hours?? We'll eat those gorgous cupcakes sent earlier in the week, they're so bright and happy, I know they'll help keep us focused!

    Coming down to the wire. I feel like we're the underdogs in the race against time, but will do all we can to persevere, till this is complete.

    This must be hot chocolate, since I don't drink coffee.

    Good morning Beach Babes.   Just one more day for the weekend!  Sorry for all those with rain today.  We had our turn last week and when combined with the cold, its just bleak.  I'm hoping for sunshine your way soon.  Its times like that when you just need to snuggle up with a good book, cup of cocoa, and the fire going.

    IIIIII"MMMMMMM BBBBBaaaack!  Have missed you all so much, besides no computer, I have been sick.  Still coughing a lot but feeling better.

    Jaz,  so good to see you back, have missed you something awful.

    Julz of the beach, have missed you even though we have talked on the phone some.  I have just felt so out of contact, not even knowing what is going on in the news.

    Sharon and Coonie, you have kept the beach going smoothly with such cute funny pictures, thank you.  My kids had a pet coon when they were teenagers, I loved that coon, He lived in the house and on payday we would get him a bucket of minnows and a bag of cheetos those were his 2 favorite things.  He would even wash his cheetos.  When he got old and cranky he wouldn't come in the house anymore but people would stop and say things like did you know you have a racoon on top of your house.  So I love the name Coonie.

    Faith, so happy things are going smoothly for you, still have everything crossed.

    Has wings posted recently?  missing her

    Celia, good to see you.

    Foots, keep making that lemonaid   (((((((((((foots))))))))))))))) have missed you.

    Cup of Cocoa

    sending enough to go around, first one is Faiths

    Hugs all around, glad to be back.

    Coonie I'm so relieved to hear you'll be seeing a LE therapist.

    Yes, I guess we should begin making some party plans.

    I've been practicing my artwork to make the invitations.

    Hey Beach babes.  A friend just emailed me a link to get a free copy of Suze Orman's new book on finance called "Suze Orman's 2009 Action Plan.'  She said Suze was on Oprah show today and will be having an online webinar next Thursday night on Oprah.com.  I've been a Suze Orman follower for a few years now.  Her book "The Courage to be Rich" is the one that helped me let go of my clutter in my house.
