He sounds delightful, Beverly.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Timelies all!
I had a family therapy session yesterday with Mr. S and his therapist. It was scheduled for 3:30. Due to horrible traffic on a couple of the roads I took to get there, I didn't make it to the facility until 4:45. I'm supposed to go back up there tomorrow to take Mr. S out for a few hours(Gary is away on business). I can only hope late morning Saturday traffic is much kinder than Thursday afternoon traffic.

That is wonderful, Bev!

Eight to 24 is a big jump! How wonderful, Bev!
So that's been fun. Also, David, I snuck up on a little shit fly that's been hiding in daylight and making us twitch at night watching tv when it flutters across the screen, or across our faces, attracted by the screen's reflection in our glasses. He (probably she) was basking in the sun on the window frame, half hidden by the blinds and didn't see me coming with my crumpled tissue. He made a satisfying scrunch, and his last traces got wiped off the window. Die, mofos!
Bwahahaha! For yours is an evil laugh, delighting in squish!

Our wings are not tired.
What a beautiful update, Bev!
I'm back home with my sister. This weekend is the Airshow so they closed A1A in front of the condo during the night. We can still U-turn-turn to get out to the dog park and store and such. I'll probably run and pick up my MIL prior to the show so she can visit with Mona too.

Bev, that sounds like a delightful visit!

It's been quiet here the last few days.
I filled the car's tank with gas on my way to work Thursday. When I got home yesterday, I had a smidge over 300 miles on the trip odometer. Lots of driving....

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
There's a woman in our church who uses a guide dog for assistance with visual impairment. Today they happened to come to the pew where I was already sitting, and she had the dog back into the space between pews using the command "step back" followed by a series of "beep beep beep" until the dog had gone far enough. I commented that I loved that she used the sound of a reversing truck, and she said it had been the intuitive choice.
