Time to start another Wilder. This time it’s A Foreign Affair with Jean Arthur and Marlene Dietrich.

I'm glad that I had been communicating with DR Danise the last months and weeks.  I last wrote her on January 7th and never heard back from her.  Then her good friend sent me a message :(

I made breakfast potatoes, sliced new potatoes bubbling in ( probably too much) butter with chopped green and red peppers and shallots

I’m not liking this Wilder film so far, except for Marlene Dietrich. I guess I don’t like movies about Republicans who are irritating.

DR Iris, Botanical Garden does luminarias along the paths during December. Phoenix Zoo does Zoo Lights.

We've gone to Zoo Lights in the past; this year the family was sick most of December.

We really enjoyed Zoo Lights when my daughter was little. I thought your grandson would like them.

Have decided not to complain about our weather, as it’s nothing compared to what is happening in Southern California.

Saw the surgeon today.

Clear margins, but I will need to start radiation therapy for 6 weeks, 5 days per week.

Radiation doesn’t scare me, as I was married to a radiation oncologist for 22 years, and am very familiar with the procedure and side effects, which are nothing compared to chemotherapy and surgery.

Very glad that part is over.

From DR Iris:

Quote
I am a towering 4 feet 11 3/4 inches.

I wasn't that tall when I first met Bruce in high school.  I entered at 4 feet 10 inches.  When I graduated I was 5 feet 2 1/2 inches.

I grew a bit more after I was married and made it to 5 feet 3 1/4 inches.  Keith laughed at my always says that quarter inch so it made me smile to see you do not round out your heighth :)

I'm now 5 feet 3 inches.
5 feet 3 inches sounds wonderful! 😊

OMG, the current video shows Keith's cousin standing on one side of a stone wall spraying flames on the other side.  And he put them out!

News crews have been filming in front of my friend’s house for hours.

He lives on Adelaide Drive in Santa Monica, and has an incredible view of the fire, currently burning out of control.
