7am-ish Easter Sunday morning it is raining, just a light, steady drizzle.  More than just the moisture of our ubiquitous marine layer.

I thought… cool!  I always like the rain here.  It drove me away from the UK (among other things), because too much of a good thing is, well, not a good thing. I see in the news that Missouri is flooding and I know there are many, many other places worldwide that feel the powerfully negative effects of too much rain.  However, if I can remain on the positive here, this particular rain evaporated into thin air and out popped our beautiful Cali sun.

Here’s an approximate schedule and a little rating on how the rest of the day went.  Somewhere in the midst of it all, Sunday lunch/supper got prepared and cooked.

The scale is:  Wishy-Washy, Moderate, Very Excellent Good, Too Much

9:00am – long walk with dogs = V.E.G.
10:30am – pancake b/fast with son = Too Much
11:30am – recovery nap = Moderate
12:30p – BFF arrived w/laundry, the pace quickens = Moderate
1:30pm – drank sparkling wine, chatted and had the giggles = V.E.G.
3:30pm – tried to set up BFF’s Wii Fit thing = Wishy, Washy
4:30pm – got the frickin’ thing going but B&W, weird = Wishy, Washy
5:00pm – ok, we have color and intermittent Wii pointers = Moderate
6:00pm – time for Easter lupper = V.E.G., borderline Too Much
6:30pm – Wi Fit with bulging stomachs = Moderate
7:00pm – getting in the groove = V.E.G.
7:30pm – time for BFF’s Tiramisu = off the scale!!
8:00pm – another hour of bowling, tennis, golf, balancing, chicken flying, ski slalom, ski jump, obstacle course, hula-hoops = V.E.G.
9:30pm – a teensy bit more tiramisu (just me: others still doing the Wii thing) = Moderate
10:00pm –  start clearing kitchen, BFF gathers stuff = Wishy, Washy
11:00pm – farewells, more clean-up = Moderate
12n?? – bed and fast asleep in a second = V.E.G.

And that’s all folks!
