A Schizophrenic Place to Live
Woman in the Middle | June 23, 2013As most of you who read my blog know, I live in inland So Cal. Specifically, I live in one of the largest counties in the country, Riverside County. We stretch from Orange County in the west to the Colorado River in the east. We are bigger than the state of Connecticut. That gives us folks in Riverside County plenty of room for very divergent life styles, as was pointed out to me recently.
A couple of weeks ago you may have heard that President Obama was meeting with President Xi of China. They met at Sunnylands, In Rancho Mirage, California. Shockingly enough, for those two days, the President of the United States, the President of China, and I were LIVING IN THE SAME COUNTY! We were all hanging out in good old Riverside County.
However, our weekends couldn’t have been more different. While the two presidents stayed in what was once one of the most luxurious privates estates in the country, I was cleaning my bathrooms. While they looked at stunning scenery, I looked at two-week old garage sale signs and wondered why people didn’t take them down.

And such is the schizophrenic place that I live!
