Dixie Bell came in her door covered with snow and promptly shook it onto me.

I have just had a nice hot shower.

Dixie Bell must think I need to be Scandinavian.

i had a big day. this afternoon we went to costco, and this morning i went wit keith & sherlock back to the hiking trails.

i admit i was a bit nervous about going & almost backed out a couple of times. my love of hiking combined with clear skies & low 50's temps, i couldn't resist. we planned the hike to avoid all but two of the creek crossings, and the stones were flat & dry. keith protected me from the few dogs we saw. it felt great to be there, like visiting with an old friend. we were a bit somber when we walked past the spot of my accident. with all the soft trails along there i had to get knocked down where the ground was hard. i also think it was slightly downhill making the impact worst.

I'm glad you got to go outside and hike a bit today, Jane. It must have felt good.

Jane · « **Reply #129 on:** January 07, 2010, 04:49:11 PM »

it was, scary & wonderful. i was frightened of being knocked down by a dog before the accident, you can imagine how i feel now. i can trust keith to watch out for me. it will be better once i finally have use of my right arm, though i have no idea when that will be.

I've written close to seven pages so far - may write another couple later, but need a break and then need to finish the liner notes. Just finished writing about my first car and getting my first two-bedroom apartment.

What is with my cell phone? DR fjl called me, and I was waiting for the phone call, but I never heard the damned phone. Now he's not answering his phone.

bk · « **Reply #133 on:** January 07, 2010, 05:18:45 PM »

Damn them, damn them all to hell. I need to go sit on my couch and relax for at least an hour before I try to do anything else.

TOD- I've probably saved most of the letters I've ever received. I guess they go back to about 1967--those would be letters from my pen pal in England. I often wonder whatever happened to him.

On one of my recent trips to visit my family in Buffalo I took some old letters written by my late mother and grandmother. I think everyone enjoyed hearing them read out loud.

KevinH · « **Reply #137 on:** January 07, 2010, 05:23:39 PM »

DR elmore---I read something about Finian's moving to another theatre--can you enlighten us?

Ginny · « **Reply #138 on:** January 07, 2010, 05:36:42 PM »

TOD - When we cleaned out my mother-in-law's desk in 2007, we found a collection of postcards that we'd sent her from our various travels. The earliest one is Richard's from New York in 1976, followed by one I sent her from Dallas in 1979 (2 years before Richard and I were married). Reading them in chronological order is like a travel biography of our marriage.

If I knew anything, I would indeed enlighten everyone. I hear that the producers told the cast, when they announced the closing date, that they hoped to close the show and to move it to a smaller house. I do not know what theatres are available or what they have in mind. Logistically, I would think it has to happen soon but no one appears to know any more than that at the theatre. As far as I know, the show is closing on Jan 17 and everything else is gossip. If I hear something definite, I will let you all know. And frankly, I hope it does happen. I think it's too good a show to fold up.

The BCS Championship Game got off to a great start. Audra McDonald did a killer redition of AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL. Then a very scrufty-looking Josh Groban did a fine version of the STAR SPANGLED BANNER.

Well, when I was chatting with Cheyenne today, he said.................

Oooh! I'd like to see Josh Groban looking scruffy!

Seriously, I think that would be great if the show could be moved - soon!

I'm sure no one was at that school when the roof fell. I think it was closed, but I don't pay a lot of attention when I know I have to go to work. The Petsmart was closed. The cats were taken back to the Humane Society, the rest of the animals (no dogs) are at animal control until the roads get better and they can transport them to the Omaha store

Thanks, DR elmore--I hope Finian's does move. I'd like to see it again.
