I just gave my friend Sharry a copy of Sandy's Christmas CD

Page Six!

[Jeanne]

There was a wonderful classical music radio station in DC some years ago, WGMS. DR Jose recalls it, I'm sure, and DR Kevin may, too. I was introduced to much wonderful music there. Sadly, it is no longer.

It was especially nice to hear how happy they are together.  They met online and in person a few times.  You never know how it's going to be when you're suddenly together 24/7, but it's working for them.  I'm so glad

[Jeanne]

Don't know if I mentioned it here, but yesterday a couple we helped with a fiancé visa and an adjustment of status stopped in to surprise us with chocolate cupcakes to help celebrate their wedding anniversary.   The husband was one of those people who stopped in all the time all sad and depressed.   He was nearly in (happy) tears yesterday and said thanks in a very heartfelt way, especially to Edith who talked to him every time he came in.   The wife is from the Philippines and I was relieved to hear her whole family is in Manila and they are all ok.

How nice to be in a job where you know you're helping others--and they appreciate it.

I love Christmas Music.   I had a Mountain Music Christmas CD a few years back.  I especially loved listening to that

I gave Sandy's Christmas CD as a gift last year.

I have found that my immigrant clients are especially apprecative

That is a lovely story.  I am sure there is a lot of heartfelt joy in your career.

I love it when they bring food....usually tamales around Christmas.  Oh and one brings a cake on my birthday.  It's extremely rewarding.  A year ago I would have had to give it up if I had gotten the job as a judge.  I'm so glad I didn't get it.  I have no intention of leaving it now.

Now if you could just find a way to get a vacation in NYC!

The paths not taken. We often don't know if we chose well or not.

[Cillaliz]

I am getting sleepy.  I've been waiting for several emails all day.  I finally got one of them telling me he would email me tomorrow, lol

[TCB]

Did Jeanne say good night?

[TCB]

Oh Jeanne, you are still here.  You must have been typing.

[Jeanne]

Did Jeanne say good night?

I'm still here, Tom.

[TCB]

Good night, Cilla.  Sweet dreams.

Oy. How annoying.

My attitude is if it's supposed to happen it will happen.   I had to do a lot of thinking about what I'd give up if I got the other job  last year and when I didn't get it, my commitment to my own business grew a lot stronger.  I have to say I'm very happy with my life and I'm very thankful for that

[Jeanne]

And goodnight to you both.

Not many people can say that.

I think I am heading back to Page One.  So good night and sweet dreams to you too, Jeanne.

[Jeanne]

Good night!

[Jeanne]

Thank you, Tom. You, too.

[Cillaliz]

Night Tom, night, Jeanne

Happy Friday, all!

I've gone missing for a day or two with a family health crisis which is happily mostly over. My younger brother went in for open heart surgery yesterday, but all went well and he's recovering nicely. It kinda made it hard to breathe for a couple of days there.

The good news is I got my New Kritzerland music to learn for Dec. 1st. Looks like it will be a very Merry Krtizmas!   

Recovery vibes to your brother, DR ryacko!

Hmm.  I wonder what Dubai is like in December?  BB is starring as Billy Flynn:

No, that would be CHICAGO, not Dubai.

[Jeanne]

I'm back.

Interesting BBC article on the wonderful 1930s sets from Poirot:

Now I'm gone.

I must confess, when I saw Kevin's post about BB as Billy Flynn, my mind thought Barbra Streisand as Billy Flynn.  Really!

Very nice food porn, John!
