It's been a morning of hell, beginning with my efforts to get a too large carton containing two reams of copy paper onto the elevator using the walker and a cane. It was bad enough getting it onto the elevator and worse getting it off while the , as I was yelling for help and the elevator alarm rang and rang, Jen showed up, as did my neighbor below me Jacquie and her neighbor on four, marine Chris Muncy. They extracted ose all the timeme, the carton, and the walker. Jen told me I could always ask her for help and my response was that I did not wish to impose all the time - I really did not expect all this tsuris over two reams of paper! - and Jacquie went back to her apartment. I told Chris I had a copy of Annabelle & Thatch for him. So he came to the apartment and played with Annabelle and Stella while I signed a copy of the book to him and Andie; they have a kitten about a year old now.
