Stressy Times
Thank you all for your patience. Some of the dust is settling after my mother's passing, but there's about another week of tidying up details. In these times, family and friends are indeed the greatest blessing one can ask for.

A girl once went to the fair to hire herself for servant. At last a funny-looking old gentleman engaged her, and took her home to his house. When she got there, he told her that he had something to teach her, for that in his house he had his own names for things. He said to her, "What will you call me?" " Master or mister, or whatever you please, sir," says she. He said, "You must call me master of all masters . And what would you call this?" he said pointing to his bed. "Bed or couch, or whatever you please, sir." " No, that's my barnacle . And what do you call these?" said he, pointing to his pantaloons. "Breeches or trousers, or whatever you please, sir." "You must call them squibs and crackers . And what would you call her?" he said pointing to the cat. "Cat or kit, or whatever you please, sir." "You must call her white-faced simminy . " &quo
Condolences. Lost my parents before COVID arrived-- Dad in late 2018, age 90, and Mom in 2019, age 89. Every day was some painful reminder, like the day that my smartphone removed Dad's number from its frequent caller list. Not that seeing his number on the list was any less painful! Only now, am I finally feeling like I can move on.
