I just received a carton of pears and apples from Harry & David!  Well, I didn't order this and there was no gift card, so I was about to go onto HHW anmd ask, who the fat hell sent this? when I looked on the top of the carton.  At the top of the address label there was a note from my neighbor Roberta:  Thanks for taking care of my mail.

I've been picking up her mail for the past ten days.  She's back tomorrow. What a nice surprise.

That's very sweet...literally and figuratively! ;D

I'm up, I'm up - nine hours of sleep and the alarm didn't go off again, so I've got to find something new in that regard.

That's a different neighbor, and as far as I know she hasn't had the headshots yet.

Ginny I finished "The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek".  I am glad I read both books on the subject.  I did not prefer one over the other.  I think Giver of Stars had more depth to the characters for a book discussion.  I can see why Richardson was concerned about plagiarism.

I just read a comment that Moyes book "Me Before You" is basically the plot of the Bollywood film Guzaarish, which was accused of having been plagiarized from an unpublished novel.

I love working for my London conductor and West End International.  I submitted the invoice, and the money was transferred overnight.  That will cover the property taxes, thank God.
that is excellent news!

It doesn't help that the chemicals from the last stage of the work bothered me.  If only that had been done earlier in the day.

I am not as itchy as I was from the chemicals used today.  Fortunately my lungs feel no worse than they have for the last 3 months since my cold.

DR Jennifer I expect you will appreciate that I do not have a headache.

After work, I went to a birthday party at a tequila bar I had never visited before. Turns out the place is in the same building and next door to the ballroom where we were having classes later. So, all I had to do was walk from the bar to the ballroom.

I appreciated that. I didn't have an tequila, but I did have a couple of beers.

Now I have to wait for three sticks of butter to reach room temperature, so I can make a couple of tarts tonight. I was voluntold to bring them to a dinner party tomorrow night that I didn't know I had been invited to.

I never eat out on Valentine's Day, so a homecooked meal will be nice, too.

When I can get to the party, that is. I have to usher for a Planned Parenthood event right after work. I don't know how long it will last.
