Got news when I woke up that Mom fell in her bathroom and broke her shoulder. She’s apparently in an ER overrun with covid cases.

Vibes and prayers and xylophones most appreciated.

Spoke with Mom. I think she was on a painkiller. Anyway, the break was slight and she might only need a sling. She might have to stay in the hospital overnight.

We have my aunt's list - so we are moving on.  First two cousins there at 1:30 p.m.  Next cousin on the list isn't interested in anything.....so then the EIGHT of us are up......

Monday afternoon greetings!  We are gearing up to go out to do errands.  Our primary objective is a new phone for Richard.  His died about the time he burned his foot and he's been without it ever since.  We also have a few last minute Christmas things to get.

Today is the 20th of December, and the countdown to Christmas has begun.  For me, that means that places I am used to frequenting for lunch or dinner will not only be closed Christmas Day and New Year's Day, but will be closed all the days in between.   Yes, that's the plan for this year, everyone shutting down for a nice long holiday week.

Ah, well.  Thank goodness I can cook.

Enjoy cooking special dishes.

I have no plans for the coming week except MORE estate stuff.....someone did something I asked her not to do....so there you are.

I asked my sister NOT to send my aunt the appraisal list.  They finally called her on the phone yesterday and were telling her about the few things they wanted.....but she sent the appraisal so now they have a shopping list and price list and we haven't heard from them since....I am sure they are checking things off like mad...

My sister is leaving Saturday for a visit with her daughter in Maryland so she wants to get everyone - ALL 24 heirs - through the house before then.  But it ain't gonna happen.  And I can't say anything that she doesn't say NO to....or know a better way.

So I'm not going to talk anymore.  She knows so much she can do it her way......but it ain't gonna get done this week, thank you very much.

I am sorry.  Yes, it should be about sentimental decisions, not price.  So many heirs having the option to take something.  Is there a limit to what they can take?  I doubt those at the bottom of the list will get much, if anything.  Where do you fit in the queue?  I hope you get something of sentimental value.

Oh no, this has got to be scary.  Mayor vibes she stays covid free, and her shoulder doesn't hurt half as much as mine did.

My weather app tells me it is a sunny day in Los Angeles, a good day for Bruce to drive over to see DR Jeanne.

It is not bad. At least according to her.

As I suspected last night - dead battery - charged now and running for ten more minutes and we'll hope for the best from there. It's worked properly for five days and I drove a LOT yesterday and it locked perfectly each time. Until I got home last night, then it didn't. I got it to beep but that doesn't work after it hasn't done it properly. Very irritating. Send vibes and xylophones that there are no more issues this week - but this is why I didn't really want to do any long drives like the one I'm about to do.

She is very lucky.  Vibes all is good when she sees the orthopedist for her follow up visit.

The update is that it was Mom’s arm, not her shoulder. And she can’t see an orthopedic surgeon until Dec. 30.
