I had a wonderful Mother's Day lunch at the club. 

My choices were fried chicken, squash casserole, lima beans and sweet potato souffle with unsweetened tea.

All was delicious and had a nice catch-up with Butch and Sharon.

Spoke with Mom. She sounded good. But no kids visited her for Mother’s Day, so she tried to lay on the guilt. I reminded her I was coming in July.

Can she video chat with you?

That's nice.  Was it busy being Mother's Day?

No. That type of technology is beyond her.

One of the things I've loved in The Forsyte Saga is how they use music to suggest the passage of time. It changes along with the fashion. In the early episodes, it's Chopin and Schumann. In this last episode, it's jazz music and Copeland.

Too bad as it would make it easier on her.

I saw my friend and her cousin in the audience today!  They're in the front row on the audience left (right side, as seen from the stage).

Jane, your long-awaited report on the Refresh Relieva eye drops:

The drops definitely help my dry eyes, more so even than some of the other brands I've been taking, such as Thera Tears singles. No irritation at all, not even in my wonky right eye that suffered the alcohol spray last year. The only problem I had was with the bottle itself. There's an instruction sheet in the box, which should be read, as it explains how to open the bottle and then prime it. It's not a big deal once you know how, but the first time requires some explanation. I suggest you give Relieva a try. I haven't tried the gel drops yet, but will post once I do. I'm using up some of my older drops and will switch to Relieva, but keep Bausch & Lomb Soothe and Similisan. I alternate so I don't get too much of any one.

At night I prefer using Similisan.  During the day I mostly use Refresh Plus Lubricant drops (Carboxymethylcellulose).  I can't really tell the difference the preservative free Plus drops from the Refresh Tears I switched from.

I am curious if you will be able to tell the difference between the Relieva and the gel drops.

They’re performing Scherezade with the Youth Ballet, plus Barber’s Violin Concerto and a piece by a Ukrainian composer, Skoryk.
