Life is challenging… and though I really want to check in once a week on this blog, I find that reality prevents me from keeping to that plan. I have no idea how the daily bloggers find the time to type up a blog every day!!  I have too many people that I am trying to connect with regularly and so much to do at home and at work that I am shocked to realize that more than a week has already gone by since my last post. I clearly do NOT live at my computer.  Also, I am happy that I do not carry a mini-computer phone around to prevent me from connecting with the live people around me.

Here are a few things that I have done this past week:  attended a concert by the San Francisco Symphony, partied at a dinner-dance fundraiser event (FAFNET), began a job that will take place every Sunday for 10 hours,  cleared and cleaned half of the garage floor to prep for laying down some flooring (one of the big projects I spoke of in the previous post), assessed my sprinkler system for necessary repairs, attended an amazingly fun potluck barbecue dinner party (Thanks Jim and Vicky!), dropped off a significant donation from a fundraiser to the St. Patrick’s Seminary, and went out to dinner twice (my favorite Indian restaurant = Roti, and my favorite Filipino restaurant = Karilagan) and lunch once (Queen’s Louisiana Po’ Boy).  And, most importantly, I called my Mom to see how she is doing.  Have you called your mother lately?

At the various parties that I attended, many people asked about my trip to New Jersey in the Tesla.  So, in my next post, I will attempt to answer one of the questions that came up repeatedly.  Can you guess what that question was?  Check back again to find out.  Frugal Tesla
