Adam and I should be sniffling some great duet

Adam and I should be sniffling some great duet. For some reason I hab the same code, and it is a nasty little nipper.
I've been playing catch-up in all the areas of my life; finally took the car in to Mr. Kim today, am catching up on
bill paying, and clearing junk out of my office. I talked to
Sadie yesterday, and she did sound busy. Also, Arik is going in to talk to Ernie Kent (the U of O basketball coach, for you intellectuals) about practicing with the team
for the rest of the season. Wish him luck; that boy does love basketball.



Congratulations, Brant and best wishes, Wendy...

Congratulations, Brant and best wishes, Wendy! What a lovely
thing to have happen; you will be a great couple. And ignore what Adam says, Wendy, you're both way too smart for Brant to forget Valentines Day or you to be fooled by a mere proposal without chocolates, flowers, or frilly things. At any rate, as the Russians say, "We wish you many years." And, Kirsten, I'll bet David would say yes. Hmmm, just a thought....

Home safe, stalwart Robbie picked me up at the airport, and I was home by 6 or 6:30. Meggie called to say the oncologist
thought low dose radiation might be helpful to dad. Bob had a nice Valentine Day dinner for me. What a good life.

I've completely lost track of time. I slept until 1 pm today. I had a dream about all the fam; it made me realize why I love you all. Many hugs. Dad seems to feel a little better today.Dad's address is c/o Lytton, 638 Sussex Road,
Philadelphia, 19096 if you can send him a card, and his cell
number 1-941-391-2281.

I'm sitting in Meg's and Dick's TV room taking a minute to
write to you all. I don't know that I'm tired as much as
I feel as though a lot has happened in the last three weeks,
and that I've made a lot of Arrangements - for medical care, for car repairs, for travel. etc. I'm anxious to return to my old mom slightly ditzy self. I got into Venice about 9 pm Thursday. Friday was spent doing a last bunch of
laundry, wiping down counters, cleaning food out of the fridge, and packing the stuff for Meg and Dad's clothing.
I met the nice lady Betsy had hired for the four days
he was "alone". I asked that I be able to take out Dad to say good-bye to his friends, and they said okay. We went back to Country Club Estates and stopped to say goodbye to the neighbors. We went to Captain Eddie's, his and mom's old stomping grounds, for a rock shrimp dinner. The staff there all fussed over him and he was in generally good spirits. I then zipped up to Sarasota to pick up Meg. Friday
morning we headed back to to pick up Dad and drive up to
the station where the auto train starts. We had a roomette
with a twin bed and double bed. Travelling was hard on Dad
but he hung in there. We had a three hour drive after the
car train ended, and got in about noon. Dick made a good dinner and we got Dad to bed early. Now, I can hardly keep my eyes open. At least 10,000 hugs to all. om

It turned out that Dad was not okay physically, but has lung
cancer. I'll post more about our time there, but right now I'm back for a few days stress relief before I leave again
for Florida. Meggie and I will take Dad north on the train this weekend. I'm so grateful to the fam for being so together, in all senses of the word.
