I was speaking at a women’s club yesterday and someone was selling ankle bracelets for a a charity. They cost $6 and brought them as a gift for Maria. She is going to take them to India in February and wear them there, it is leggings time and she can’t wear them in the winter.

I brought her two roses as well because she was disappointed that we do not have a woman president. The anklet sparkles.

Maria is going to India in February, but that will be upon us in a flash. I am plotting and scheming how I will handle things, stacking the firewood in advance, buying some light sticks, keeping the place clean, shopping, shoveling. Should be exciting.
