By The Light of The Silvery Moon

I'm sure that everyone has heard that we had a Blood Moon combined with a total lunar eclipse last night. I had heard rumblings about the end of the world being a result of this, but I woke up this morning, so I guess that was yet another hoax. We could see the entire thing from the dining room of Casa de Holtzman. Here's is my terrible crummy shot of the event.


And here is NASA's shot. 


It comes as no surprise that theirs is better. Anyway, the next time this happens, I will be 88, so I probably won't care. But let's get to more important things, like what I did and wore over the weekend.

On Saturday, the entire Holtzman clan gathered at my inlaws house so that we could give them all their flu shots for this year. It's wise to immunize!!!! Afterwards, Doc wanted to go to the mall to look at videos and get an Orange Julius. So I left him to lurk in BookOff, while I took a stroll around Macy's. I got something that I saw when I was in Orlando, but didn't have enough cargo space to carry back with me. I was very happy to see them again, and on sale again.




Some Coach driving loafers!! There was only one pair, and they were my size, so it's Kismet!!!

On Sunday morning, this was the view from beautiful Huntington Beach. It was in the mid 80s.


I was meeting a friend for lunch, so I went early to take a walk. I was concerned that the marine layer you see here in this pic would make it too chilly, but by the time I walked down to the pier, it was hot.


There was a paddle board contest going on. We had lunch at Chipotle. I got a carnitas salad. It was rather large, so I ate half of it and then ate the other half later.


When I got home, we went down to visit my mom. She wanted to go to the store, but can't carry everything she wanted. I wore a long polyester dress that I got at Target.



Sometimes I feel like I am wearing a nightgown when I wear this dress, but I received a bunch of compliments, so I guess it's all good. Doc especially liked it, but then, he IS a hippie at heart. I wore a Swarovksi crystal necklace that I got in the 1980s, and it was my first Swarovski piece.



On my right hand, I wore my Nordstrom veiny boulder ring and a few cheapy costume bangles.



On my left arm, a costume bracelet from Stacey's Closet and my wedding set. I don't always wear a wedding ring, but if I don't, my mom yells at me (still getting time outs at 56).


And now, it's back to work for me. Here's what I am wearing:


This is a pair of light gray slacks by Odds and Ends, and a high-low tunic by Hang Ten. I wore a long costume silver necklace that I got at the hospital gift shop.


It jingles when I walk. On my right arm, my mother of pearl spaceship ring and my tin can bracelet.


On my left arm, another MOP ring, and another silver costume bracelet. I'm sticking to a theme here.



And of course, I'm finishing it off with my grey Nine West shoes.
