Laura I am sorry your show was canceled at the last moment. How disappointing

Sounds like George had a fine time though!

Kitty cleanup is over, and I must wend my way bankward. Ugh.

This time tomorrow, I will once again be at the VA...this time for a CT. My doctor thought it was time to check my innards.

Apparently, CT stands for Computed Tomography. You all probably know that, but I find it amusing to say it in full, rather than reference it as "CT".

Computed Tomography.

And it will be done in the same area where I got my X-rays done last Thursday. Oh, rapture! Oh, joy! Another long haul down corridors in a wheel chair.

Through Comcast/Xfinity I have Peacock and a few things on HBO MAX - although I don't get everything....I don't specifically subscribe to any streaming service because I pay too much for cable as it is.

I guess maybe I should tell someone about the paintings I got at Goodwill that have a sticker on the back that reads:

Gardner Museum Boston

Speaking of X-rays, my doctor sent me the results of my Thursday visit and I got them Saturday.

He said they showed two things: Normal wear and tear of age (degeneration) and...A concerning cystic something or other on the left hip that has caused him to submit me for an MRI. I know something is wrong with my left hip, but I sure hope it isn't something needing an operation.

Then, he said that attending to the following things could "save your life" and afford you good health in the future. WHAT??? HUH??? SAVE MY LIFE?

What followed was a series of shots, all of which are very up-to-date except for TDaP. What, I wondered, was TDaP? So, I googled it and discovered it was the immunization against Typhoid, Diphtheria and Pertussis.

I see this guy quarterly and he has exclusive access to all my records, so I wonder now why I haven't been told I needed a TDaP round of vaccinations before now.

I find it oddly disconcerting to use such terminology just to say I need some TDaP vaccinations.

Maye they are from the gift shop?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #48 on:** May 23, 2022, 06:35:44 AM »

So, let's see.

It's Monday. The mini-heat wave (two days only) broke with last night's thunderstorm, and we're looking at beautiful temperatures for the foreseeable future.

Almost time to open some windows and enjoy fresh breezes.

I have my more-or-less monthly dinner meeting with my director this evening. That will be most pleasant.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #49 on:** May 23, 2022, 06:38:44 AM »

Oh! That's something I haven't announced here yet.

We pulled the plug on THE STREETS OF NEW YORK for this coming holiday season. There have been too many closings and missed weeks in this entire area due to Covid, and with the size of the cast required in that one and the challenges of teaching and rehearsing during the cold months, the two of us went to the theater and got their very willing blessing to kill that idea for this year and substitute it with something smaller and with less potential for risk among a bunch of people. So we'll certainly be mulling over that tonight.

Sorry about the Streets, ChasSmith.

It took 90 minutes to get to work this morning. There was a huge accident and traffic didn’t move for close to an hour. I couldn’t get off to try another route.

Sorry about the Streets, ChasSmith.

Thanks, but neither of us is actually sorry about it, for many reasons. We really want to do it sometime soon, which as far as I know could even be its first ever time to be presented in this area, but we felt deeply that this isn't the year for it. All of us, including the theater president, were breathing a sigh of relief when we came to this decision.

Now to decide on its replacement, and it seems like we're always trying to think of "small" shows...

I'm home from the bank, and I need to do the laundry I've been avoiding for days.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #56 on:** May 23, 2022, 07:46:11 AM »

This morning is taking an ugly turn, weather-wise. I had my mornng coffee on my porch. Alexa told me it was to be partly cloudy with some sun, but also thunderstorms during the day. It is 73 degrees. I finished my coffee but soon felt a chill in the air. A few raindrops fell.

It is now VERY dark overhead and gloomy. I guess a storm is coming. It is so still and quiet that it is very unnerving.

I have some strawberries to clean and cut, and some loaves of pound cake to freeze.

Strawberry shortcake is in my future!!
