Very random here....we went to Cape Cod for our honeymoon in 1981. It was so amazing, we drove from Mississauga, Ontario, through the White Mountains and then down the coast. I still have my travel souvenirs which include a newspaper from Martha's Vineyard when a Great White Shark had been spotted in the harbour.

We stayed in Bass River and seeing the fishing boats at night on the water was amazing. Our room looked out over the water. I found sand dollars on the beach near Provincetown. We visited Plymouth Rock...lol...not what I expected. Stopped in Bar Harbour and found out it was dry, too funny.

It was a great trip. Maybe we should visit again.
You'all come back now, hear?

Well it's been quite an interesting few weeks. Two weeks ago my only aunt passed away up in Maryland. I didn't go to the funeral since i ended up getting a bad case of strep.

My mom, who has been in a rehab facility the last three weeks with issues with dementia and walking, fell last night and broke her femur. She had surgery this morning to put a rod in her leg. Thankfully that seems to have gone well. But we have some decisions to make on long term care options for her and my stepdad thinks he can still take care of her at home. None of the family, or mom's care team at the rehab place, think that is a good idea. This is going to be a struggle.

Then today I found out a long term employee who just retired last month passed away suddenly in her sleep last night.

Whew.

I need a break. Pass the cookies.
I'm so sorry and my full support goes out to you--caregiving isn't easy, nor are the decisions. There's lots of endings and beginnings here that are heavy--be gentle with yourself.

Sad news just outside the OKC metro. A 13 year old passed away from RSV this week.


Please keep that family and everyone who is sick in their thoughts and if you pray, your prayers.

RSV is scary stuff.

This belongs somewhere else, but about to resume viewing Barbarian.

Then it's on to The Menu.

In between, freak that I am, obssessed over Margin Call.

And if you want an angry documentary take on the '07/'08 financial crisis, check Inside Job,

Just before 6 AM this happened

Cambridge Police AND EMT's are banging on my door.....and I'm going WTF?

Turns out the cats knocked my Apple Watch off the charger and then decided it was the new puck for the Stanley Cat Final.

The watch then calls 911.................................
