Jane, I'm married to the dutiful middle son who has been the first responder for his parents' medical emergencies since they were younger than we are now.  The younger brother lives about 50 miles away and appears only when absolutely necessary.  The older brother is closer, about 5 miles away.  He blusters about, but Richard is the level head and the one whose phone number is first on the "who you gonna call" list.

50 miles!!!  I thought he was far away.  How long does it take him to get there?   I guess you did tell him to get his butt into town.  

Continued vibes all will be well now.

Jane - I have been very remiss, in all our family turmoil, in neglecting to congratulate your son on his acceptance to medical school - how 'bout University of Cincinnati?  Or Wright State?  Or Michigan?

I've missed out on sending good wishes to Ginny's MiL etc. I hope all and the sun dried have satisfactory outcomes in these difficult times.  (I admit I have not, and will not, check up on eight days of missed posts).

GOOD VIBES ACROSS THE PACIFIC TO ALL THOSE IN NEED.

Wendy: Where do you live?
Peter: Second to the right, and then straight on till morning.
Wendy: They put that on the letters?
Peter: Don't get any letters.
Wendy: But your mother gets letters.
Peter: Don't have a mother.
Wendy: No wonder you were crying.
Peter: I wasn't crying about mothers. I was crying because I can't get my shadow to stick. And I wasn't crying!

I read somewhere that the average person swallows, while sleeping, seven or eight spiders during their lifetime.  Hopefully not that kind of spider.
TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!



Now I am going to have to sleep with bandanna tied around my mouth

This woman has to be gotten to a hospital.

 A hospital--what is it?

 It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

BK, I sent Andrew Bowen who used to do a mean Keanu Reeves impersonation on MAD TV, a blurb about "The Brain" and I mentioned that I should have thought of him two months ago when casting was beginning.  He just wrote back and said that he wished I had.  He wants to do a musical again.

And you would rather have a black widow in your house! ??? ;D

Oh, yes. One spritz of Spray & Wash, and they run off, shrivel up, and die.

They are only the size of a coin, so they are well within the range of a rolled-up newspaper.

Those huntsmen spiders -- way too big for a rolled up newspaper.

I wish!  He just did extremely well on his exams.  Getting into a school is another thing.  He didn't apply to Michigan.  Most schools give priority to in state students, except OSHU in Oregon, just his luck.  

The majority of schools he has applied to have sent him a second application to be completed.  He hasn't heard from Oregon, hopefully that will come soon.

Keep those vibes coming:D
