Well, you've read the notes, the notes tickled your fancy, and now it it time for you to post until the fancy cows come home.

And why on earth has dear reader George become a WUSSBURGER - we could always count on his late-night postings, and he hasn't been doing that for days.

My excuse is that my big screen TV died. I would always watch my big screen TV while I was on the computer because they're in the same room. So now I can't ketchup on my TV watching while I'm on my computer. I have my standard-def TV up in my bedroom, but surfing the net and being on HHW on my tablet in my bed is neither that easy, nor very comfortable. Eventually, I will get a new TV, but I just haven't yet.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Morning all.

That is all.

2 days down and 3 to go.

Things are OK downtown. Some construction is still being finished but otherwise work goes on.

The biggest thing to get used to is not going home for lunch anymore.

Good thoughts to you all, dear friends.

Good Morning! Looks like another long day just chock full of sunshine.

Ben · « **Reply #13 on:** July 22, 2015, 05:26:23 AM »

Well, it was bound to happen. I'm now bringing my lunch to work and I forgot it this morning. I can either eat it for dinner tonight or keep it and take it tomorrow. I'll probably just take it tomorrow since it will be one less thing to prep for the night before.

Well, I slept maybe three hours and will try to sleep four more, but my mind is awhirl with stuff about the book idea - it always happens.

I was there for that Florence Henderson performance - best thing that evening and I wrote about it in those notes. She was seventy-nine when it was taped. Sadly, the nice fellow who choreographed it died recently way too young, probably in his late 40s.

Seventy-NINE?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #17 on:** July 22, 2015, 06:13:23 AM »

And on that note (a low D that I just swiped from Bernard Herrmann):

Good morning, all.

Vibes for DR JEANNE....most educational reading about your past couple of weeks.

My father is doing okay. He wants someone in his room 24/7 which is very difficult for all of us, but hopefully that will pass.

Tonight is our read thru for THE GAME'S AFOOT....we shall see what we shall see. My mother is being played by my best friend, Vickie.....it should be a lot of fun. We have done MANY shows together in various capacities....mostly with Vickie as director and me as her assistant. I also played roles in several of the shows....beginning in 1981..... But this is the first time we will be onstage together.

Here we are in 1982 at The Sound of Music....when we were doing shows outdoors...

And here we are at auditions last Sunday.

Saving for tomorrow sounds easier. Did you find a place good to buy lunch?

I am glad he is improving. Is it due to fear or boredom that he wants someone with him all the time?

Nice pic Jrand.

Thanks DR JANE. I think it's a combination of both......

True DR FJL.....sometimes it's part of a plan and sometimes it's hubris.

Glad you're up DR ELMORE....it's going to be a great day.
