Because - PAGE THREE!

We are having a very nice, sunny day in South Carolina.

We had to send all that doom and gloom to DR Singdaw so it would offset his personal cheerfulness.

Of course, now that I have come back, there is nary sign of hide nor hair of any other soul.

Sigh.

This has been quite a social day. Joshie arrived aroud 1:45 and stayed for an hour and a half. It was a nicew visit, but he brought news of a mutual friend who is dying from pancreatic cancer, and that really upset me.

Then, after he left and I fed the cats, I returned my brother Randy's call from around 1:00. He says we just a=lost a buyer for the property because the city will not let the buyer park large trucks on it.

Sorry about your friend, Elmore.

elmore, I shouldn't think it would cost anything up front, just would be working out a royalty deal.

I'm very sorry, Larry.

Very sorry, DR elmore3003, for the news on both fronts.

Sounds good.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #74 on:** March 22, 2022, 02:08:25 PM »

Thanks DR singdaw that play sounds right up my alley.

I remember Levant on the Friday night Paar show.....he was always smoking or fumbling for matches to light a cigarette. I also liked his book a lot.....he once said his favorite review was of a concert he gave wherein the critic said: "Last night Mr. Levant left his contemporaries and his conductor far behind."

I remember one night when he and Paar were talking and Paar mentioned that Judy Garland would be a guess, Levant said: "She's one ahead of me on commitments, but I'm one ahead of her in suicide attempts."

Cold weather and rain all day.

I got an email from my garbage collectors that they are a truck down and that my route didn't start until 1 p.m. Please leave my trash down by the street.....they'll get to it eventually.

Thanks, BK. That's very helpful and encouraging. Tomorrow I'll make some calls. I need amounts for the budgets I'm preparing for the proposal. I want something on paper, as a precaution.

Hello, everyone.

I picked up my tax return today and had a little chat with the preparer. Thankfully, I owe less than I estimated and a lot less than I feared. I was so distracted that I completely forgot to stop at the Beverlywood Bakery! No rugelach for me today.

Jeanne · « **Reply #79 on:** March 22, 2022, 03:10:11 PM »

Jane, I am now in season 2 of THE BAY. It is very good--good writing, strong cast, just well done overall. Highly recommended.

Jeanne · « **Reply #80 on:** March 22, 2022, 03:12:08 PM »

I'm feeling a big sense of relief that I wasn't expecting. Partly getting my taxes done, but partly having my latest outpatient surgery behind me. It was a lot at once.

Jeanne · « **Reply #81 on:** March 22, 2022, 03:14:22 PM »

I'd like to take a few Me Days for R&R.

Jeanne · « **Reply #82 on:** March 22, 2022, 03:15:33 PM »

DR Elmore, sorry about your friend. It's so hard to lose our friends.

Jeanne · « **Reply #83 on:** March 22, 2022, 03:16:24 PM »

I have nothing more to report.

TTFN.

Sorry. It is nice to know though that they definitely are not closing.

I hope you do not have more surgeries ahead of you.

Today I found on Facebook this article on Belfast.I'm surprised how much of it reflects my feelings on the film.

elmore, and anyone else who orders pet food online, be very careful when ordering from Amazon. Last week, I ordered (I thought) a case of the Fancy Feast (grilled whitefish and tuna). The price was higher than the price on Chewy, but since Chewy charges taxes and shipping, I figured it would work out about the same. The package arrived yesterday, and it was a half case (12 cans) rather than an entire case. I went back online to Amazon, and sure enough, the listing now says 12 cans, not 24. The half case on Amazon cost me $23.96, no delivery fee; and the whole case on Chewy was $17.16, plus $4.95 delivery and $2.00 tax for a total of $24.11, but Chewy was twice the number of cans. And if your Chewy order is more than $50.00, there is no delivery fee.

Buyer beware!

It felt soooo good to get out of our winter rain clothes for our afternoon walk. The sun felt heavenly.
