Woman in the Middle | February 3, 2018

The $1.45 Mocha Freeze is off the menu at the Costco snack bar and I am in mourning. I loved those things. I can not drink very much coffee due to its acidity but I do love it. The Mocha Freeze had just enough coffee to give me the flavor but not too much to give me problems. RIP Mocha Freeze. You will be missed.

People down the street are removing a huge old olive tree. The sound of tree removal has been all over the neighborhood for several days. The tree was planted decades ago way too close to the house. Now that they are selling,  they probably had a home inspection that identified the tree as a problem.  Looking forward to the buzz of chain saws and the sound of the wood chipper being over.

Ever since our closet rod fell in the middle of the night, sounding like a bomb going off, Hubby and I have been a wee bit more sensitive to middle of the night noises. Last night we both heard what sounded like a golf ball bouncing near by. We had both forgotten it by morning until I found a golf ball on the floor. We have a lot of golf balls in our lives because we live next door to a golf course. Hubby remembered finding that particular golf ball and bringing it inside and placing it on the counter between the kitchen and the den. We have one cat, Nox, who likes to stroll the kitchen counters in the middle of the night to see what he can find. Apparently last night he found a golf ball which he knocked to the floor. Mystery solved. Now if I can figure out how to convince Nox to stay off the counters. 

My little trouble maker Nox. Here he is catching a few rays in the den.  

That annual tradition, for reasons lost on me, the Super Bowl is here. We will spend it in our annual tradition of watching the commercials, not so much the game, and eating lots of food.

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

    Some people are clueless when it comes to planting trees, little trees grow into big trees……..
    The sound of a tree being removed can be so stressful, listening to the tree cry in pain and the removing person trying not to get sucked into the wood chipper because a person in the wood chipper isn’t good this I know without seeing it, seeing such a thing would be disgusting trust me on this

    I think you are right, Jo-Anne. Those trees look so little and harmless when they are first planted, but then the poor dears end up crying out in pain from being removed because they have grown too big.

    I thought at first that a golf ball had whizzed by your bed through your window from a golfer! I am glad it was just Nox knocking it down from the counter.
