Sorry to hear Fredwina, hope the move drops you into a cool new job.

Best of luck in finding a new job....Graceland could be a happy job. Visited twice and being a tourist area, it should be interesting. People are on vacation so in generally good mood!

Today I went and did an intake assessment on a client at my old school, where I taught. They have a brand new, gorgeous building. I was dazzled!
It was luckily, an early release day for the kids, so I got to talk to all of my former colleagues. They made me feel like a rock star. Seriously, I am on a high now, from so many hugs and kind words.
Won't last too long, I am sure. Back to reality.

Good morning everyone.

Moving ahead slow but sure, the things that stop me in my tracks and make me tear up keep surprising me; always bought mom flowers when I did her grocery shopping, at the store this morning I walked past the bouquets and started crying. My honey went though this four years ago so she just strokes my back and hands me kleenex. I have the best wife in the whole world.

(((Pax))) Yes you do have the best wife in the whole world or maybe there's a tie with Knott.

[Pax]

I can agree with that!

Okay PNWers! ChickWhoRips is in town.




She even woo'ed the horses. They both came over and laid down with her for a nap out in the back yard. We went to Pike's Place and tried on some hats... I bought the psychedelic one... had some brew at the Pike Brewery and generally had a fantastic visit in the Seattle area with my friend Jean at her ranch. Having a great time with a very wonderful person.

[Pax]

What a great time!!!!

Way cool X! Are you living in Seattle now?

I think she's south of us, Oregon still. I would have joined in the fun but had to work. Also busy because of planning for my Mom's memorial

Oh Trek, I'm so sorry. Hugs to you.

[Crankin]

Sorry, Trek.

[Catrin]

So sorry Trek, that is hard. Hugs and warm thoughts to you.

[Pax]

So sorry Trek. Hugs

Thanks. I miss her so much. Mom was 91 years old, she was dressed and ready to go raise holy heck at a meeting with her progressive activist friends when she suddenly passed. When her friend arrived and Mom did not respond to the door, her friend called my brother who lives nearby. Since she had a heart aneurism it was instant. The day after, Knott and I jetted down to see my brother and SIL. The house was all in order and Mom had plants she'd got at the farm market and ready to go into the garden; mostly basil starts. I guess we all should be so lucky, active, independent and gardening right to the end.
