Last January, we did our all young people show at Vitello's. This is what I wrote about one of the young people's performances: Then came ten-year-old Sadie Reynolds, a little bundle of dynamite who did my twisty and crazy Shermanized Word Medley – five minutes of their nonsense words songs – perfectly delivered and the audience loved it and her.

And then: After that, Sadie was back with the evening’s most affecting song – When She Loved Me, from Toy Story 2. This little girl did it so honestly and simply and it was heart wrenching.

Well, little Sadie is eleven now and just got the lead in The Secret Garden at the Ahmanson, pre-B'way, starring with Sierra Bogess.

I was up early this morning.  Had a cup of coffee and began dressing to go out.

I had an 11:15 a.m. lab appointment at the VA in Aiken, after which I drove over to Sam's Club and bought some Sister Schubert's Frozen Yeast Rolls for my contribution to Thanksgiving Dinner at my cousin Ashley's in Simpsonville, SC.

Driving back into Johnston, I stopped at the post office and found a ton of mail in my box (mostly requests for donations to this, that and the other) and a yellow card, which meant a package.

It was a largish box mailed by one Bruce Kimmel on Nov. 17.  It was my Indiegogo haul with CDs, a letter from Ernest Gold and -- drum roll -- the "Li'l Abner" insert!!  All is in excellent condition. 

Lots of packaging in this box, including some very sturdy plastic bags which were put aside for my smaller trash cans throughout the house.  Thanks, BK!!! 

I took a longish nap this afternoon, and I am now feeling fit as a fiddle, in fine fettle, and all that sort of fol de rol.

That has been my day, thus far.

I will add that Sam's Club, at noon two days before Thanksgiving, is an absolute zoo.

There are the busy shoppers, of course, but our Sam's has its share of elderly shoppers who wander aimlessly about looking at stuff but not really shopping.  Just a day out in an exciting and busy venue.

I don't want to inundate DR TCB with emails and texts when it is difficult for him to respond.  DR George do you have plans to text again? 

I certainly can, as long as I don't make it more difficult for him to reply. :-\

I wonder if it is easier for him to talk, or just be able to respond with OK, or even one letter just to let us know he is ok.

Maybe just call him?
Given the pain in his hands, I'm thinking it's likely easier to just answer the phone as opposed to typing texts or email.

Except he might not feel like talking.  If he knows he only has to say hi, ok, and goodbye that might be easier.

Speaking of alive, I may be seventy-four but I have to say my driving reflexes are VERY sharp. I just came with probably one INCH of being creamed by a moron ASS. I'm driving west on Riverside. About a block in some cretin comes shooting out of the mall parking lot on the left, other side of the street. swerves around three cars going against four lanes of traffic, coming literally straight at me. I slammed on the brakes, swerved to my right and got ahead of him by one inch- several other cars had to swerve out of the way. Of course, he kept going down the side street. If I wasn't ahead of that side street I would have gone after him, blocked him in and called the cops because morons like that will end up killing someone. THAT was what the wags term a close call.

Now I'm home. I did an Amazon Fresh order but had it delivered to the mail place - next time it will be here, but I was going there anyway to pick up a screener (two, as it turned out). They had all my items, so that was nice.
