I've never listened to In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida...

But if Ina Garten married Danny Devito, she's be Ina Garten Devito.

The Simpsons did a hilarious riff of this with an organist playing it in church. Homer turns to Marge and whispers something lije, “Remember when we used to make out to that hymn?”

Tuesday afternoon greetings! Long time, no see…

Two days after the last time I posted, we drove to Michigan to help my niece (from Florida) help her parents (my sister and her husband) prepare to move to a senior citizens apartment. On the way we stopped in Findlay, OH, for a fun lunch with niece Rev. Amy and her family.

At my sister’s there was lots of talk, lots of laughter, some tears, and a great deal of sorting and distributing of stuff. The day before we were to leave there was some reconsideration which eventually resulted in their deciding to stay in their home and hire some help.

We left there on July 4 and drove as far as Lima, OH, where we stayed overnight so that Fr. Richard could conduct the Wednesday funeral of a former parishioner. By the time we got home that evening we were both exhausted.

By Sunday I was ready to resume our own downsizing process, so I culled the CD collection. We’ll take 2 boxes to the AAUW book sale site next week.

Today, I tackled the travel files, resulting in 3 bags of recycling.

Is rearranging PDF pages one of the things you can do in ‘Preview’ on the Mac? I know it has certain PDF capabilities but I haven’t explored it. But I do that, and more, all the time in the iPad music reader forScore.

That having been said, I did NOT notice the error in the Harvey scrapbook, so I must get back on that.

It's my understanding that one has to have a specific app/program that can edit PDFs. Only ever having had Windows computers, I know nothing of the capabilities of Macs.

That's a lot, DR Ginny. No wonder you're exhausted.

I am sure that you and DH Keith are glad to be a the end of this particular journey, DR Jane.

They're re-making Wonka AGAIN??

I'd heard about that...with Timothée Chalamet...and it's going to be a musical...and Hugh Grant is a (the?) Oompa Loompa.

The REAL reason why BK didn't get any sleep last night:

I'm up again - I think I got three more hours of sleep. And a modern major miracle.

Iris, where is it you want to make your escape?

Jane, I’m considering a retirement community in a wooded area, an hour train ride to Manhattan. It’s a fairly large community on 1000 acres.
The town is Somers, NY, which looks like it’s not too far from where DR Chas lives.

Hoo and Ray is right! Congrats, BK!

If my daughter and her husband had not settled in Brooklyn, I would have probably moved to a beach community in California.

There is no reason for me to stay in Baltimore now that my family members have passed away.

DR Iris · « **Reply #146 on:** July 11, 2023, 02:06:24 PM »

Jane, there are some exceptionally lovely areas in Maryland if you’re considering moving here.

Chevy Chase, Potomac, Bethesda and Columbia are all very nice.

I have lived in Silver Spring, which I liked. Baltimore is just not the right place for me.
