We're tired

For some reason, Bob and I are really tired out, and we're curled up in bed watching The Illusionist, an animated film by the same film company which made The Triplets of Bellevue

G'day, all

It's just that I was surprised to realize that Adam is as goofy under stress as we mere mortals are! Much love to all.

Colette Update

June 21, 2011 by Sue in Wielesek

Was over at Joanna and Adam's yesterday evening. Adam, Joanna and Christopher are frayed but very organized and functioning well. Colette was in a deep sleep, her physical being gently slowing down and turning off. She didn't appear to be in pain. Hospice had done a good job. The last bits of Colette's paperwork had been done.

I sat with her until about midnight. When I left, the stars were resplendent and the moom glowed an intense yellow.

Happy Fathers' Day

This is a family of great Dads, including Bob and John and all the other men who are kindly additions to the fam. I am most grateful for all of you. And thanks to Christopher, for being a great son as well as a great Dad.

Keeping Spirits Up

June 18, 2011 by Sue in Wielesek

Right now, Bob and I are in Oakland for the wedding of my goddaughter, Naomi.

We brought along a young man who's a family friend and helping with the cooking, and his culinery gear. We left at 11:50 and got in about 8, which means that Bob, who drove the whole way, had a long, long day.

I was over at Adam and Joanna's the other evening to go over some things with Colette, and was so impressed with everyone in the household, including the kids.

Colette must be so uncomfortable, but as always, she was sweet, loving and very patient with the kids. Berry was our "secretary", and bundled Colette and me up , then crawled up on the couch with us. Colette is so important to their whole family.

Joanna, when I get back, let me see if my former secretary Reta can come help with notarizing documents. Much love to all, mom/sue

A Merrie Companie

June 12, 2011 by Sue in Wielesek

Colette, John, Bob and I had a nice dinner on Friday evening. Yayoe called from Hawaii, so we all got to give her a shout-out into John's cell phone. I worry because Colette is looking very frail. But Bob and John were both in fine form, and entertained "us girls" with their witty repartee.

Happy Birthday, Sadie!

Hi, I told Sadie I'd send pix of the apartment. We have a nice tenant.

Darn deer

June 01, 2011 by Sue in Wielesek

Yesterday Bob and I looked out the kitchen window to see a deer, probably one of the twins, now about two, standing in the flower garden polishing off the last of my spring flowers. I stood in my sock feet in the doorway, shouting at him, while he looked at me as though I were daft. Finally Bob, who had shoes on, chased him away.
