My Mom is 88 today. But, in Real Birthdays, she's only 22. (She never gets tired of that!) I sent her 2 dozen roses. And she's celebrating all weekend long. That's good, because she's been stuck in her house all winter long. 
I finished the Clown Socks. I didn't think I'd like this colourway to begin with, but I really do now.
We went to Costco to try to return my dumb cell phone. But, I've had it too long, so I have to go through Sprint. They tell me a cell phone is only supposed to last two years. Like Joni Mitchell says, nothing lasts for long. We also checked out the flooring, and it is substantially cheaper. What I thought would cost around $800 will end up at around $300. Not much selection, though. I'm not sure the wood types they had will look good. I'll paint the walls before I decide on the floor.
I got my new makeup in the mail today. Maybe I won't look like a hag for my passport photos. I also got a size 0 42" circular needle from KnitPicks.
Tonight, it's grilled tri-tip, hassleback fingerling potatoes, and a salad.
It's sunny and mild--perfect for grilling. All you gals on the East coast: this weather is coming your way. Hang on! Relief is on the way.
The drawing is tomorrow. Thanks for all the comments!

I see you have really taken to the world "hag." :-)
Yes, I LOVE it. My mom used the word "hag" years ago. You've just brought it back to life again. Especially with Marcia and her insane doings.
