Nan and Will left today for Europe, and I am alone in their house. Nan is feeling a lot better, though there have been some setbacks. She had to have a transfusion last week. Her blood counts are low and she’s been bone tired.
A few nights ago, Nan and I went out to the courtyard to barbeque the salmon. I slid the enormous hurricane-glass door shut behind me. And when Nan turned around to head back inside, she smashed right into it.
I don’t know who was more upset. We were both crying, she had a huge bump on her head and her face was bleeding where she got cut with her glasses. It only took us ten minutes to laugh about it, but it was a long ten minutes.
On the other hand, if I ever want to take her out, I now know how to do it!

Aw, safe travels to Nan and Will… I’ve been thinking about you lately and I’m glad you’re doing well. Honestly, you’re never far from my thoughts.
I saw a cat on the back of the passenger seat on the Beltway yesterday and thought of Umi.
Writers. Always looking for the perfect crime. :-)
