Frosted Thoughts

Oxnard-- So last week, I told everyone I get sick every fall, which is true, but I didn’t realize just how sick I was. This time, I caught pneumonia, which knocked me to the ground. Firstly, I know I said I would update the web with stories, but that was before I went to the doctor, not my favorite place, and found out how sick I really was. I was knocked to the couch, away from the J-Train,...

Frosted Thoughts

Oxnard-- I hope everyone enjoyed all the fun events across Oxnard this past weekend. It was a busy weekend, for sure. Let's start with the Parade of Frights at Channel Islands Harbor and all the nicely decorated boats across the Harbor. Boat owners always put their best foot forward, and residents always appreciate the effort. The fun didn’t stop there, as the Downtown Oxnard Improvement As...

Frosted Thoughts

Oxnard-- I’ve spent another week trying to figure out how to use technology to make my life easier, but failed miserably. took a car trip out of the area the other day, parked my car, and couldn’t find it when I finished my task. I asked my phone to give me walking directions to my car and ended up walking in circles for about 90 minutes. Of course, my oldest got a massive laugh about my late...

Frosted Thoughts

Oxnard-- As we head into fall, I have to admit the J-Train and I enjoy candy day, and we’re always ready with plenty of treats for kids. SAY that with a bit of trepidation this year, as I’m now seeing stories about Fentanyl being disguised as candy, which of course, is dangerous to children. Parents need to tell kids this Halloween to bring their candy home first so parents can look at their l...

DO YOUR HOMEWORK

Oxnard-- Okay, the cycle begins once again, and the City of Oxnard is heading full steam into another election season. LET’S start with talking about who will replace newly appointed Ventura County Supervisor Vianey Lopez on the Oxnard City Council. I’m seeing some signs pop up around town, which is always good, but there are things to remember before launching your campaign. There are ple...

HERE WE GO AGAIN

Oxnard-- It started off as a good week. I picked up my new glasses on Friday and got a bunch of paperwork done and things around the house done on Thursday. MY new dining room table finally arrived, which I put together, and I got out to buy more clothes since clothes that fit me were few and far between. My mistake was bringing the J-Train and letting her help. I can only say that she spend...

THINGS HAPPEN

Oxnard-- I have said on many occasions that if it’s not one thing that comes up, it’s two things. This week is no exception. FOR starters, I finally carved some time out of my schedule to go to the eye doctor, as working and looking at my computer screen has become an issue. Yup, I need my glasses and a magnifying glass to see well. I went, and the doctor told me I needed a new prescription...

IT’S HOME!

Oxnard-- It was a typical day last Tuesday. I got up at 5:30 a.m., ate breakfast, watched the news, and started to write my second news article of the week. THE usual things happened, phone calls about legal ads and people sending me press releases. It was pretty typical until the phone rang, and my wayward car caught up in supply chain issues was ready to be picked up. The issue was a brok...

DISAPPOINTMENT

Oxnard-- I think we can all agree that the rain forecast in the area last weekend was a bust, although I do admit that I come from a place that gets a lot of rain. WHILE we did get a little bit, it certainly wasn’t enough to celebrate. As a point of reference, I grew up in Freeport, New York, where the average yearly rainfall was around 55 inches. I understand the excitement about rain in t...

ACTIVITIES WHILE BAKING

Oxnard-- Greetings to everyone, and I hope you’re having a happy Labor Day weekend. It’s better than when I was a child since it was time to start another school year when Labor Day weekend was over. ADDED to the challenges this weekend is the heat, which is less than wonderful, but the good news is that we live by the water, making me think that people further inland are much warmer than I...
