Vibes dear buddy Elmore. I too have been dealing with a condition I don’t think has been diagnosed properly because it is lingering, and I am trying to get in with a specialist.

Good vibes you can see a specialist and get an easy fix.

I am sorry that Senator Dianne Feinstein has passed, but she has been in very poor health lately and it was just a matter of time.

She was Mayor of San Francisco when I first moved to the Bay Area in 1984.  I was on USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70) which was homeported across the bay from the city in Alameda.  Yet, the city adopted my ship which was known as "San Francisco's Own"...and the officer's mess had on display a beautiful silver service that was, historically, unique to San Francisco.  The major motif on each large piece was a golden bear (California state animal).  When the ship left for other climes, the silver service went back to the city.

She dined aboard the ship several times during the three years I served on it.  She always arrived via boat, crossing the bay rather than going across the Bay Bride and through Oakland.  Wasn't "seemly".

She was affectionaly known as "Di-Fi"....well before "Wi-Fi" became a common term.



I had not seen the sad news.

Today Richard and I are going to the upholsterer to see about having our dining room chairs recovered.  Best case scenario is that they pick them up from this house and return them to the new house.

Great idea, good luck it happenes.

Speaking of which, I'll be getting the NEW! IMPROVED! UPDATED! Covid vaccination on Monday morning. I scheduled it for when I have the rest of the day and the following day free for feeling the now-expected mild fatigue afterward.

Congrats.

We were supposed to get our flu vaccinations tomorrow.  I attempted to change them to today but couldn't.

George, I think it must be a comfort to your mother knowing she visited Margita one last time.

Thanks.  I'm sure it is.

From last night -

I, too, have a physical copy of the cast album Love Online. I think I listened to it maybe once.  I stopped buying cast albums on CD a while ago (except for Kritzerland), and I'm pretty sure I have a digital copy of Late Night Comic which I believe I enjoyed when I listened to it.

Good Morning (afternoon) - it's Friday!  Tomorrow, things kick into high gear.  My last free day this week before White Christmas starts on Sunday night.  I leave for my 4 day trip to London on Thursday night!!!    And Parent/Teacher conferences are Tuesday-Thursday next week.  It's going to be a crazy week for sure!

I highly suspect that this decision has already been in the works and her successor ready to go.

At least I would expect this to be the case considering all the requests for her to retire.
