DR Edri, I too thought Florence Pugh's outfit was ridiculous.

AH I forgot to mention here on HHW, my niece won a cruise to the Mediterranean ... she and her husband are going in May.....and of course it is the same week as the high school graduation of her daughter and her husband's daughter.....both from previous alliances.

A free trip, nice! And since they won’t want to miss those graduations, I will make the sacrifice and go on the trip for them. I am giving that way.

From Bruce:

Quote
So, they include Jacques Perrin, who no one here knows (he's great, but...) but they leave out Cindy? They leave our Robert Morse? They leave out Bert I. Gordon? They leave out Owen Roizman? They leave out Arnold Schulman? Henry Silva? Paul Sorvino? Stella Stevens??? Marsha Hunt? Jean-Louis Trintingnant? Joe Turkel? David Warner??? Clu Gulager? Melinda Dillon? Hugh Hudson? We get Mary Alice but not Cindy? Diane McBain? And I could go on and on. Shame on all of them.

At least Cindy was in good company.  Yes, shame on them  >:(

My internal clock still hasn't changed.  Fortunately I don't have to set an alarm clock.

DR Elmore, thank you for offering your words of wisdom.

I am trying to work up some courage in order to have that conversation.

One of the problems is that I have a difficult time holding back tears.

DR Iris it is ok to cry.  Sending hugs.

DR Iris, you're very we3lcome. The most I can wish any friend whose parent is dying is that the passing be swift and painless as possible, It's what I wish for myself. You can have your conversation with the tears. Every word you speak will be filled with compassion, love, and concern. After the first time, which can be truly upsetting, it gets easier, but the pain and grief will never leave.

My mother had to do this with Dad. I think the problem there was my sister who wouldn’t accept it or let him go. She kept saying he was getting better. He was lucid. He was fine. She then blamed the center for bad treatment.

I am sorry.  I didn't realize your sister wouldn't let him go.

Oh, my!  Congrats on them winning the trip, but they're going instead of being there for their kids' graduations?  Good for them. ;)

I would much rather have a wine of the month or a chocolate of the month or a potato of the month than a storm of the month.

The computer situation was a disaster that is not really fully settled yet, but I am back online. They gave me the wrong adaptor, which required a whole trip back to the main office after I had already gotten home the first time.

There are still some kinks to be worked out.

On the upside, I don't have to do this again for another 5 years.

They said it was a very good thing I had come in, as the case on the old laptop was bulging like it was going to explode. I hadn't noticed this, as I had papers covering the keyboard.

I also took the opportunity to re-arrange everything so that I don't have to move anything every time I have an on-camera meeting. Long overdue.

Darn.  How far is the drive to the office?

I needed some exercise.  Instead of walking in the pouring rain I decided to use Keith's air bike.

I only went about half a mile, but I did push it standing up at times and going fast.

While standing is harder to do, it doesn't hurt my knees.
