I went over to my uncle's house last night about 11 p.m. and sat with him and my sister for a couple of hours.

He is in his hospital bed in his living room.  He takes morphine & larzapan (sp).  Today at 5 p.m. they are moving him to the hospice facility called The Gathering House.

His sister - our aunt Martha who is mostly drunk 24/7 - and her crazy daughter called last night demanding to know why they hadn't been told everything......why they were the last to know anything......

My brother called her and said this is what we know and this is what is happening.  You could have come over ANY TIME to see him when you could TALK to him.....  They are coming by the house today at noon, so I'm going to go over there to be with my uncle and my cousin Mickey....

My aunt is grieving.....I'm going to invite me to go to the meeting at the funeral home on Monday - I doubt that she will.

My uncle has everything written down the way he wants it - if our Aunt wants something, as long as it isn't AGAINST his wishes - it will be done.....   Her daughter is so jealous & greedy that she can't see straight, she's also on some kind of drugs.  She doesn't have a key to the house (my sister and our cousin Mickey do)....and they are executors.  EVERYTHING is written out. 

If they have a question, our uncle said let them call the attorney.

So sad.

~~~Continued Vibes and Hugs!!~~~

We went to the Mexican place where I took Jane and Keith when they came to town, La Fonda on Main

I would love to go back there, the company and the food were both wonderful.

I didn't know there was such a thing as stage zero.

I didn't know they could detect it that early.  I am having a someone routine MRI next week so it is good to know about this, and a reminder why I am having it.

I am so very sorry :( 

Lorazepam is the generic name for Ativan.  It relaxes the nerves and also reduces nausea.

In new news, I just got invited to play in the pit for How to Succeed... at Marist College in Poughkeepsie in February. That’s a nice gig that I’ve enjoyed a couple of times. They have a strong theater department, and they always hire the full band, whatever’s called for. I look forward to properly learning the score, especially since I presume we’ll be using the materials that were blessed by DR Elmore a few years back...?   :)



Congratulations!

Ditto!

I cannot believe that little shit Rittenhouse walked. Well, it's a victory for the white trash Trumpers and their GOP ilk.

It was a sad and disappointing day when I discovered that my Universal Remote Control did not, in fact, control the Universe.

Not even remotely.

As the days stretched out and the defense attorney wanted a mistrial I began to hope.  Nope, the verdict was what I expected all along.

I thought I saw it on the news at the gym.  What attracted my attention to the tv were two men side by side on recumbent bikes who were sitting still and watching the tv.  Later the two men walked past me and I asked them if I read the news correctly.  We were all shaking our heads.

Even before I could write B'way World about the youth pay to play, apparently they'd already figured it out and removed that theater from all nominations but missed editing, so I sent that to them. The other theaters that are ahead of us because they have huge numbers of people are community theater - should be a separate category for them, too, but then we'd be the only ones nominated :)
