I've have just heard from the landlord.  How much time do we need to vacate Toyland?  I hope to be out of there by middle of next week.

Today my hiking group went to Lithia Park in the Plaza.  The creek was flowing nicely and the flowers on the trees were in bloom.  It was especially beautiful and perfect for my last hike with them.  They then took me out for coffee/breakfast/hot chocolate.  It was wonderful.  One couple gave me a bag of the Mexican hot chocolate I enjoy, and now won't have to stop to buy more.  Another friend gave me a mug her daughter in-law made that says Ashland, OR.  The design on it is the symbol for the Trinity Church, which is the group I have been hiking with for almost 17 years now.  I choked up at this and became rather teary eyed.  I will be taking these with me.

Two of the women in the hiking group are also in my book group.  Tuesday is my goodbye meeting & lunch out with them.

Sigh.  Today is the first day I have become emotional about leaving.

I actually was a baton person in the 4th and 5th grades.  Since there were two of us boys, we were always placed in the center of the gymnasium on the school logo during the demonstrations.  It was most interesting and fun.

I may in fact still have my STAR BATON someplace.....but I doubt that I could do a toss and turn today.

You were quite the gazelle, I'm sure.

Thanks to all for the vibes.

I won't be able to see the therapist until tomorrow sometime.....so I am just sitting here in pain....Aleve does not seem to help at all....so I will just get through the next few hours ...  with everything else going on in the world...it really is not much of a sacrifice.

Pain begone vibes to JRand.

Have you tried a hot bath in epsom salts? I know an exercise therapist who swears by it.

Good afternoon, all.

Thanks for the many vibes for Carol. She is being sent home today, but they're still not sure what caused her problem, other than perhaps a confluence of several problems at the same time. She is feeling better. (BTW, DR Elmore, Carol is a long-time friend of a mutual friend of ours, Patricia Sinnott.)

Today I'm off to the Giants game with my 8th grade class.  They are a really great 8th grade class this year.  We are rehearsing Seussical Jr at the moment and they are just being fantastic about learning the material, taking vocal risks, etc...

DR Matthew, you are so supportive of these kids. It's such a difficult age and I suspect that many adults wouldn't be able to handle them. You seem able to acknowledge their efforts and successes.

A very nice way to conclude your time with your hiking group.

TCB, you mentioned possibly moving to a mobile home. When I was growing up there were a number of mobile home parks around LA. It was a way for people on limited means to have a place to live. Some of these were quite nice. All the ones I know of have given way to unaffordable apartments and condos. I'd very much like to see a resurgence in affordable housing. I don't expect to see mobile home parks returning to LA--the property here is too expensive and I don't think that's what people here want. Are there many options of the nicer sort in your area?

Maybe they'll rent it to you for cash that isn't actually legal tender.

Will we be able to get done what you need the car for on Sunday?  My next week is booked solid, but if you need more than one day with the car, I could possibly come down tomorrow.  Or maybe Saturday.

I think I've got three weeks to finish the Moross work and get everything out.
