Sorry about not posting late last night, but I was busy balancing my checkbook and the checkbook for Theater Artists Olympia (I'm their treasurer). It took a lot longer than I expected, but it's done.

Today we were supposed to have stopped in Madagascar, the reason we booked this cruise. Instead we are cruising even thogh the plague has beenen contained. Our disappointed is nothing compared to the news our dear friend has passed away

Keith just informed me we set our clocks back an hour tonight.

Jane · « **Reply #11 on:** December 12, 2017, 02:58:46 AM »

I believe, since we are at sea and will be for 4 several more nights, we are slowly adjusting to the time change at our next stop. Maputo is 2 hours behind our current time.

Last night I went to the mall after work

vixmom · « **Reply #18 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:28:41 AM »

The new charger wasn't charging my iPad on Sunday so I tried substituting in just Vixdad's cord...yep that did the trick

vixmom · « **Reply #19 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:29:01 AM »

So it was back to the Apple Store last night

vixmom · « **Reply #20 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:29:53 AM »

I was pleasantly surprised at 6 pm to run into no traffic from my office to the mall and to find a empty space right outside the entrance

vixmom · « **Reply #21 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:30:33 AM »

Then I walked in grabbed the cord and a apple person was tight there to ring me up

vixmom · « **Reply #22 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:31:05 AM »

But the best part was walking through the mall to the store

vixmom · « **Reply #23 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:31:56 AM »

There was a little girl, about 2 1/2 walking with her parents, she was wearing a very fancy dress and pink glitter Mary Janes .

vixmom · « **Reply #24 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:32:49 AM »

She was walking with her head down so she could admire her beautiful shoes, occasionally stopping to hold a foot up to see it all the better

vixmom · « **Reply #25 on:** December 12, 2017, 04:33:49 AM »

As I caught up to them I said to her, what beautiful shoes...are you going to visit someone special?

Jane, please accept my heartfelt condolences on the loss of your friend

Thank you. This was a childhood friend of Keith's from his small culdesac before his family moved from Venice to West L.A. Keith would often talk about the friends from there that he missed, especially Cliff. Unbeknownst to Keith, Cliff's fami.y also moved away and Cliff was at our high school only half a year ahead and our paths never crossed.

About 4 years ago I saw Cliff posting in a Facebook group. We have become close with Cliff, his wife, and the sisters that also lived on the block. For Keith to have reconnected with these people who were special to him has been a gift.

Yes, pneumonic plague vs the usual bubonic plague. The pneumonic is more serious than the bubonic. Currently it is under control.
