Thanks for setting this up, beekaytee.
Hello, juliana!
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Hi, friends.
Hey! Your rosemary focaccia got all gobbled up.
Could everybody make a concerted effort to reach out to Buffistae who may not check in on the board regularly. I would like Lee to know. Allyson. I'll tell JenK. Just reach out.
I apologize that we didn't give more notice but it's starting to happen quickly.
She's starting to sleep a lot which is the thing our nurse told us would be a sign of the end.
Jacqueline dictated and I typed some responses to messages and emails this morning. Just know that she can't type or respond that well now, and even focusing her eyes or mousing around is a little tricky.
So...think of the Sunday call as an opportunity to leave nothing unsaid. I wish I had told Ginger a few things before she was gone.
She's not going to be doing much of the talking on the Zoom. That noted, I saw her fidgeting in bed this morning and asked her what she was doing and she said, "Writhing...and reeling." So she's still there with wit intact.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yay!

I've got Lee

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Just huge love and peaceful thoughts headed to JZ and family.
My family is losing one of ours within hours/days. My funny, beautiful, complicated, magical fairy aunt Happy. This is a quote from her about herself from a family gathering a few years ago. It makes me smile and just sums her up perfectly. "It's hard to behave." (Mind you, this was after she started a conversation about Brazilian waxes at....a baby shower. I am laughing through tears, friends.)
All the love to all of you.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry about the loss of your dear aunt, Glam.

Thrive to spite them
I'm sorry about your aunt. Glam.
I've had some thoughts stewing in my head about JZ and I posted them on FB.

David, I sent an email to folks from the master list that I haven't seen around here or FB in a long time. I figure all of them probably have someone here who's closer (juliana - Lee, for example), but I'm not standing on formality, obviously.

I can stop in, but I won't be there right at the beginning. Won't miss it, though. Shir, I'm sure WWII is part of my grandma's thing too...and there was trauma in her family too.

I could let Karl know...we talk all the time.
