I did keep my Bobby Sherman 8-track tape just because.

Thanks for the link, John.  There was a link in that article for this article:

The Manhattan Transfer Calls It a Night With a Final Show at Disney Hall: There’s ‘Grieving,’ but ‘We Think We’re Going Out on Top’

thank you. Looking forward to Siegel’s Cy Coleman album.

Just because indeed.

I did keep my Bobby Sherman 8-track tape just because.

Fun memories!

That made me google him and his wikipedia says "Sherman retreated from his show business career in the 1970s for a career as a paramedic and a deputy sheriff, though he occasionally performed into the 1990s"

Milestone!

And here it is!

Congrats John.

I had built in about 40 minutes extra to get to my destination, allowing for shitty weather conditions and probably extra-heavy rush hour traffic resulting from it. Well, no one could be more amazed than I was to arrive at only five minutes later than what my normal driving time would have been. And that's with slow traffic due to a tree in the road in (count 'em) two places. Unbelievable.

Better to be early than sitting in traffic, especially in bad weather.

[Jane]

So then, with naught but a cup of coffee in me, I played the first of the school concerts which went pretty well for the most part, nothing to write home about. Still raining the entite way home, but it should be totally past us in another two hours.

FORTUNATELY, no damage anywhere around the house that I can see, and that's really all I ak.

Great news that you didn't have any damage.

[Jane]

I'm now just basking in the warmth of the house, and I'm going to make myself a nice late breakfast. I've got a few blessed hours in which to relax, and maybe grab a small nap, before getting ready to clean up and do it all over again for concert #2 this evening. But in clear, dry weather, which hopefully we are having for the next two days of these concerts.

Safe and easy driving vibes.

Thank you for all the kind words about our big accomplishment.  Richard just returned from there after dragging a bunch of trash to the curb for tomorrow’s pickup.

Meanwhile, I’m making Christmas cookies and loving my new compact kitchen!

I'm up, I'm up - I have no idea how much sleep - very rough night. Endless clearing of the throat due to phlegm that would not go away, coughing, nose blowing. Until the dog is out and the house has been cleaned, this will continue, I'm sure. I almost thought, well, so many in the cast had recent colds, maybe I caught it, but I really don't think so. I finally took a Mucinex-D, and that breaks up the phlegm and it seems to be working, but the allergy pill clearly isn't.

As a precaution, I've ordered chicken matzo ball soup from Art's Deli.

[bk]

Dog did her number one business - but no number two - she'll do that later, after her second meal, I'm sure. She's learned how to tell me she wants to go out.

[Ginny]

TOD - we’ll spend a few days with our granddaughters (and their parents) and hope to be entertaining offers on our old house.

Hoping the chicken matzo ball soup remedy works!

I am happy for you.

Vibes those offers come in while you are enjoying time with your granddaughters.

Really strange

[bk]

I had a few meltdowns last night. I'm a big baby when I'm not feeling well. I began to think I may not survive this week, I may not survive until the dog is out of here, and I'm on the verge of cancelling the Do.

[singdaw]

My mattress work has been over for several years.

 

[singdaw]

Sorry, BK.

[singdaw]

It's hard when you're not feeling well and your routine is disrupted.

[singdaw]

CONGRATULATIONS, DR John G., on your lofty new perch in the HHW firmament!!!!

[singdaw]

I survived my oral surgery this morning. It's annoying, but I'll survive. So far, I have not needed to avail myself of the narcotic painkiller that was prescribed.

Great to hear you're dealing with the surgery well, and without that painkiller!

[singdaw]

Thanks, DR Freddie.

[singdaw]

Forgot to offer DR Ginny congratulations on completing the last big task. You must be feeling overwhelming relief, and although there is still lots to do at the new home, hope you can relax a little bit and enjoy the holidays.

How do sheep greet each other for the holidays?
