I think I've only done four pages so far because two of the pages needed research and I spent over an hour doing that, maybe more, but I like learning about things that I don't know much about.

Today I shall also go to the bank!  I got my $3 increase on my SS check which is most excellent


I don't believe I got a Social Security increase! I won't know for certain until my payment arrives in two more weeks.

I received one, but it was eaten up by the Medicare increase. You should have received a notice in the mail detailing this.

I make as many of my purchases online as I can, as I was NOT born to shop. I used to go to Target, thinking I as getting good prices, but Target--at least here in LA--has changed quite a bit over the last few years. Then I discovered Dollar Tree! So much cheaper! They don't have everything, of course. But for the things I do buy there I save a lot of money.

I also shop at Bed, Bath & Beyond for some things--towels, mostly.

I did more tax prep when I got home today. I'm pleased at the progress I'm making. It can be so tedious. I'll be glad when this part is behind me.

I've done seven pages and will definitely do three more tonight at some point.  I will definitely get to the end of chapter one, although I may stop short of ending it so I can pick up there tomorrow.  And tomorrow I enter some very interesting territory.

When I worked for Office Outfitters in Middletown between 1973 and 1978, the lady who was in charge of the order dept. had grown up and gone through high school with my mother/  During the 1970's she was my superviser and surrogate mother: nurturing, encouraging, honest, everything my screwed-up mother was not.  She came to see everything I worked on, and I occasionally forced her to come along, sew something, or paint something.  Several years ago, when I saw her in Middletown, she said, "Come back and do another show!"

I've just learned that Peggy Short died today.  I will miss her

Very sorry to read this. She sounds like a wonderful woman.

DR Kerry is in good spirits. Or high on drugs. Maybe both. Send lots of extra-strength vibes. He needs them.

And extra dose.

What's wrong with this sentence?

From The New York Times:

If you strive to eat better, be more adventurous or take more risks in 20017, steak tartare and pommes Anna are a good starting point, writes the chef Gabrielle Hamilton.

Where to begin? If you'd read either of Hamilton's books, you'd know this is not usual.

Today, I received the Cesar Franck Symphony in D-minor and Stravinsky's Pétrouchka SACD Hybrid CD from BK's latest sale!  I listened to the whole thing.  Since I'm on my work computer and using just regular stereo headphones, I can't hear how well the Super Audio sounds, but the pieces themselves are very good.  I enjoyed the Stravinsky more than the Franck, but they were both quite enjoyable. :)

Actually, my friend Kathy served pommes Anna as part of her Christmas Eve feast. They were served with pork roast baked with pears, and the potatoes upstaged the meat.
