"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber
It's for the mother of one of my oldest friends. We've known each other since the beginning of high school, and have known each other over half our lives, which means we've spent most of those years running in and out of each others' houses, beginning with our parents' houses and then our first apartments and on to her house with her husband and two little boys. So yes, I knew her mother and had more than a few meals and evenings with her as well. She'd been sick a long time, but one of the things that hits particularly hard here is that the one finishing blow, so to speak, wasn't the various cancers she'd been battling but that she'd made the decision to stop kidney dialysis, and that 11 years ago I lost my father to end-stage renal failure after he stopped dialysis. So I knew what my friend, and her mother, were experiencing as they were waiting out the final days, and there was just not a whole lot I could do for them other than offer support. But I spoke with her for a while this evening, and the family seems as at peace as they can be, given the circumstances.
But thank you for your kind words. If you guys decide to have the watch and post this weekend, have fun, and if not, I'll try to join in when you do put it together.

I really want to participate but this weekend isn't good. If we were to plan for NEXT weekend, I'd be all over it.

I can put in a request for next weekend. Which day is best?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
So I take it, we haven't really landed a firm day or time to do a W&P of Serenity for this weekend?

No, but thank you for poking to remind. Shall we start beating the bushes for a week from Sunday?

I believe we could do that.

Sunday would have to be early in the day for me but I could do anytime Saturday the 9th.

Amazon's Deal of the Day is Firefly for $17.99, in case anyone has toaster plans in the near future.
