OUR LIFESTYLE AT 15 CRAIGSIDE

Taylor Swift arrived at LAX yesterday, went to one of her homes in Southern California, and will make it to Las Vegas today for Super Bowl 58.  But that's old news.  The biggest question of the day is not who wins the game.  Will she join Usher on the stage at half time?  After all,  Usher in 2011 performed with Swift  Yeah  at her 2011 Speak Now tour in Atlanta.   Here is  their duet .  That would in Las Vegas possibly become a foursome, with Lil Jon and Ludacris. Incidentally, do you know that she  owns eight homes,  investing $150 million of her $570 million in them? Two in Los Angeles, both in Beverly Hills.  One of them is a 1934 10,982-square-foot mansion purchased in 2015, first owned by Samuel Goldwyn. Living at 15 Craigside ( not that temple, but the apartment just behind--I lived for 32 years at an adjacent taller Craigside you can barely see ) involves a plethora of activities, comfortably safe environment and long term security.  Of course, this doesn't mean you can

DONALD TRUMP NIKKI HALEY NICK DUNLAP TAYLOR SWIFT

Tomorrow is the New Hampshire primary, so I'll today skip Donald Trump and Nikki Haley.  The only thing I'll say about Taylor Swift is that she was in Buffalo to watch another NFL game involving her latest lover.   Travis Kelce scored a touchdown and pledged his love.  Watch that.   His brother tore of his shirt with the TD.  The Chiefs beat the Bills and will play the Lions next weekend.  Also, the 49ers vs Ravens.  The two winners will be in the Super Bowl on February 11. I'll focus on  Nick Dunlap  because I alerted you to him on Saturday, and he went on to be the first amateur in a third of a century to win a PGA event.  Not much to say about the 20-year old, except that all the previous amateur winners went on to carve out a great career. It was not easy. He was the only amateur in the 156-player field, once known as the Bob Hope Desert Classic. Dunlap was ahead by 3 strokes after day 3. Lost the lead with a double bogey in the front nine. Struggled to a 2-under 70, in

A WEEK AT 15 CRAIGSIDE

CBS News  reports that the Lahaina Apocalypse death toll is now up to 114.  Read a complete  NBC News  account of the tragedy. I'm now in my 9th year at 15 Craigside.  This was a typical week of my life here. We are managed by a church, so of course Sunday has services: Buddhist, United Church of Christ and Virtual, whatever that was.  There was also strength training and something called Balance for You.  Monday had more exercises, osteoporosis, advanced strength, strength and stability, a Bon Dance, advanced yoga, Ukulele Get Together and Aqua Fit in our pool. Tuesday was my day for Beginning Tai Chi.   Watch a video from the University of Hawaii .  And another,  lesson one for Tai Chi beginners . There was also more strength training, yoga, balance for you, hula class and an exercise machine demo, with Afternoon Tea.  My losing streak at poker continued.  This was tie dye Tuesday.  Like in kindergarten, they offer you the option of dressing alike, as for example in tie-dye attir
