I just reported my unemployment hours to Suad, and I really like her a lot. She's quite wonderful.

Sometime during the course of dealing with my Mom, I ran across this quote: "You don't have to set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm." Vibes to you both!That is an excellent quote. I understand it is difficult for her to cook and clean but I would expect she can do most other things. Is her wrist still very swollen? I also know it is painful. I have a low threshold for pain, your mother's must be almost zero. My mother never tolerated us making a lot of noise about pain, something she knew too much about.

Quote from: ChasSmith on May 08, 2020, 09:15:23 AMDR Elmore, do you know music copyist Russ Anixter? I watched a short interview with him. He used to work with a Don Rice. I didn't know either of these names. He also mentioned the names Tony Kay (sp?) and Doug Besterman, both of whom are left-handed copyists which is apparently a whole 'other challenge in writing music. Anyway, he's still a proponent of doing it all by hand, even though he has relatively little chance to do so nowadays.Doug Besterman is not a copyist; he is an orchestrator who works quite a lot. You'll find his Broadway shows on the IBDB. He lives in LA now and does some film work. Could this Tony Kay actually be Annie Kaye? She used to be an actress, and I worked with her on an orchestration job for Papermill Playhouse many years ago. She's a nice ladym abd I haven't seen her in so long I doubt I would recognize her.I do not know the others you mentioned, but my last work involving a copyist was for Encores! and there are new music prep folk I've never met.

Been busy doing some "stuff" this morning, and I have to get ready to take Poe down to Cat Clinic for a quick antibiotics shot. His urine showed signs of bacteria, which has happened before, and he's getting the injection to ward off getting a UTI. I learned that I have to voluntarily pay more for that as opposed to giving him an oral solution or tablets at home. You absolutely cannot get an antibiotic into him otherwise. He can detect one part in a billion from a hundred miles away and there's no way of disguising it in anything.

I am so tired of this nonsense. We have 477 new cases over night between the two counties here. 2949 total. That's nothing in a major city. In a city of 120,000 that's a lot and it's totally on the rise. Great time to reopen our stores....sheesh
