170,000 evacuated

Here's the deal. It's a little after 9:00 pm on Saturday night and I know I am having a better day than the 170,000 people who are being evacuated from around the Nuclear reactor site today. And so are you. I would feel extremely safe if all of these folks were sent to Alpine, Texas because it was' the most absolute safest place ever in the universe for all mankind'. I am waiting for the Breaking News on that one.


This is what I got at 9:00.


TOKYO (AP) Japan's top govt spokesman says partial meltdown likely under way at second reactor.


This is what I got at 9:08.




TOKYO (AP) Japan's top govt spokesman says radiation at nuclear plant briefly rose above legal limit
 
I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box...but this ain't good.
 
I'm really not trying to be depressing...It's just happening. I don't have any control.
 
Happier note. I got a great catalog today in the mail. It's a James Avery catalog. Have you seen their jewelry? It's simple and elegant. I'd like to have it all. I love any and all of the heart and butterfly designs. You need to request a catalog just to see how pretty everything is.
 
There are several catalogs that I like. Coldwater Creek. Terry's Village. Lots more that the names escape me...but I get lots of ideas from them. Can you spell plagiarist??
 
I finally ordered a battery for my Netbook. Can you spell procrastinator? It has gotten to the point that I have to keep it plugged in! If not, the juice is used up in about 20 minutes. This could do some serious damage I suppose. Problem solved. Battery in route on Monday.

Here's a good one. Do you know why I need a battery? Because I didn't get 20 minutes out of it right now being unplugged! It just shut off. Irritating. My own fault.

The trees are blooming. There are a few pink ones (can't remember what they are) on the property that are really 'spingy' right now. I'll take a picture tomorrow. All the other trees here have a nice green tint to them. It's eerie. We have had very cold weather in May before when all of the lilacs were budded and froze. That's sad. I love lilacs. They have plants at the grocery store and there were several really healthy looking daffodils yesterday. Deep yellow. Beautiful.

And don't forget to set your clock ahead tonight. I like more daylight. 

I suppose I'll lay down now. Gotta get up later you know. I think nothing is on TV so I'll read a few pages. That will definitely put me to sleep. Have a nice night and a better tomorrow. Peace.
