Happy Friday evening
August 26, 2006 by Sue in Wielesek
Happy Friday evening. The start of a busy, cleaning house weekend. Dinner with Adam was definitely a treat. And Emma,
Sam and I had a fun playtime this morning, taking the car
through the Tunnel of Doom and then going to Alton Baker Park. I talked to Jenny while they were waiting for their
last plane into Eugene, but I think I should stop and see her this weekend. She said their Mexico trip was fun!

So, who's going to go see Snakes on a Plane with me? (The title sounds a little like something you'd learn to cook at
camp, like Bugs on a Log.) Adam, I understand we have a dinner date on Thursday? Should we just sneak off to the movies and eat pop-corn and Red Vines? Or Lohring, you're usually willing to watch darn near anything on a big screen? My hairdresser says it's great. And I could take extra heart meds first. I'm not sure about imposing on Aric or Anna!

And a belated Happy Birthday to Patrick!
And, that darn cat makes my allergies worse...I thought I had the window closed enough last night, but Mischa got in anyhow. He gets hungry about 5 a.m. and sits on my chest, poking my face with his claws until I wake up and feed him. After having a terrible dream about being back in Normalville, trying to take care of Dad, and having asthma, I woke up to find I really was having an asthma attack! Thank modern medicine for inhalers!
My office clean-up is coming along well.

August 19, 2006 by Sue in Wielesek
Dez and I went to the Fair on Thursday afternoon. I got him a ride bracelet so he couldride all the scary rides. Unfortunately, his first trip was through the haunted house, which left him totally disinerested in additional terror. He admitted ruefully later that he went to it first because it looked "cheesy" but that it was really spooky. So he and I went on a couple of scary rides. I kept my hands up in the air and screamed a lot!

I had a delightful time with Margie and her daughter Erin -went to the very swanky King Estate for lunch, then to see Erin's house, and then to Maggie Rhodes shopping - hope you all are prepared for April Cornell gifts for your next birthdays.
The weekend was fun, too. Bob has a friend he plays tennis with, but since Bob strained his right arm last summer, he's not so competitive. There's a local fellow, also Bob, who runs informal tennis lessons, and Bob started to take them. The instructor runs a tennis tournament as part of the Scandanavian Festival. We decided to go, with me as the athletic trainer (I tried to find satin boxers and a big cape for him, and rubbed down his bad arm in preparation for the tournament.) Fortunately, or unfortunately,they paired him with this hot-shot 13 year old girl, and they kept winning, by tie breakers, until they were in the final competition. Everyone was shouting encouragement to Bob, (including me - "Keep standing, Bob"!) Most folks were older and really nice, but Bob and Brittany drew this yuppie couple who must have been to some communication workshop = "Good shot, Baby" "Nice drive, sweetie." The yuppies cruelly and strategically chose to play to eight rather than six, since it appeared Bob would be dead by six, and alas, the yuppies finally won in a tie-breaker. Then they did this little NFL/AFL style victory dance, to the disgust of the spectators, and to my personal delight. Ah, what a work of art is man, and woman too. Next day, Bob staggered out to the chaise lounge in the back yard and barely moved all day.
We're going to Portland for a wedding on Saturday, and have Darren's pickup to take shelves to Seraph and Robbie. I need to stop at Powell's Books.
I got this great book on color from Sadie, and a t-shirt in a great color which says, "gay? Fine by me."

Hi, everyone
August 10, 2006 by Sue in Wielesek
Hi, everyone. This may be just a tad fuzzy since I just had my first cataract operation thi morning. It was an intense visual experience, although completely painless, and not at all freaky. I was in at eight, and out at 9:30, with about an hour of that spent geting my eye dilated. I have the slightest headache, but that's about it. I could see the little wire on the lens as he was inserting it. It was literally like being inside an eyeball and seeing everything translated to abstract shaes and lights. Bob has taken care of me today, but I'm going to my house to sleep.
Looking forward to spending that day tomorrow with Margie. Love to all, mom

Oooo, time with Sadie, heck, time with everyone, goes to fast. But for right now, I want to see if everyone who will be around will come to my office for office supplies, furniture, etc, which I'm glad to store or use the family pick-up to deliver. I'm buying a one-half interest in Bob's
1980 Nissan pickup (fair market value for my half $150.)
