I'm back from my young cousin's graduation in Scranton, PA, where she was the co-valedictorian. She gave an absolutely beautiful speech, the ceremony was really lovely, and the post-graduation dinner was very good.

Congrats to your niece! This was college graduation?

8th grade. She starts high school in the fall.

Back from a roast beef sandwich - curiously you'd think a deli would actually have some Jewish type rolls, but nooooo - only french bread and other kinds of breads, and bagels - no Kaiser, no onion rolls - what is happening in the world of delis?

Ridiculous!

One week from today, if all goes well, I will be in post-surgical recuperative mode. Hopefully on my way back to my covered hovel, in my opinion dressed up with lots of books and discs.

SURGICAL VIBES OF ALL SORTS to DR DAN M!

May you have a successful surgery and rapid recovery!

Thanks DR Jeanne. As the week progresses, I am getting nervous.

Just relaxing, watching a couple of Netflix movies and dozing, although one was pretty good.

I like BK's lovely surprise.

Well, it's time to head home. I need to do some laundry...I really do!

Until later.

Very good news, Vixmom.

Jack, what a terribly sad story

vixmom · « **Reply #103 on:** June 10, 2015, 08:30:58 PM »

Elmore I hope everything is lovely at the ballet

Last night, I power-cycled my cable modem/router to see if that would help with me receiving the wi-fi signal up in my bedroom (which is an open loft right above the modem/router), and so far it's working...hopefully, it'll continue to work.

George · « **Reply #105 on:** June 10, 2015, 08:57:44 PM »

My modem is still working! Whew!

Finished with my viewing.

George · « **Reply #107 on:** June 10, 2015, 09:53:27 PM »

Slow night.

George · « **Reply #108 on:** June 10, 2015, 09:57:36 PM »

Tomorrow, I have a meeting in the morning with the supervisor of the rep for one of our book vendors.

George · « **Reply #109 on:** June 10, 2015, 09:58:55 PM »

The meeting was supposed to be with our rep, but she was injured so she couldn't fly up from California.

George · « **Reply #110 on:** June 10, 2015, 09:59:53 PM »

I'm not sure if I've ever met this guy who is coming up.

George · « **Reply #111 on:** June 10, 2015, 10:00:43 PM »

I think that I might have, but it would've been several years ago.

George · « **Reply #112 on:** June 10, 2015, 10:02:20 PM »

Or, depending on how long he's had the job, I could have met his predecessor.

George · « **Reply #113 on:** June 10, 2015, 10:02:55 PM »

Shows you how well I pay attention.

Oh, Jane... again? I'm so sorry.

It happens far more than I mention it. I did manage to go to sleep after I posted.

I have watched a couple of my brothers using a chain saw.

I also have an Uncle George that I never met. He and his twin brother Jim were working at a saw mill in Waverly, Indiana, in the 1930's, they were not out of their teens yet. When out with the cutting crew, George happened to notice that a huge tree was falling toward Jim....he ran and pushed Jim out of the way. The tree fell on him and killed him.

Such a sad story, and very moving.

Looks like I will have new neighbors very soon.

I hope they are good neighbors.

We had a nice evening at our condo building. A very friendly couple who lives several doors down invited us for dinner. It was a delicious dinner with a grilled panni as the main dish. I now want a bbq for our patio to grill yummy veggies.

Can't stop here....
