Well, Saturday, a little snow which is beautiful. But Emily is worried so she has already shoveled twice. I feel a little better than yesterday, I suspose the Gemzar continues to wane.
I know that many of you are probably looking for miracles and I sure don't want to discourage you from that. Thought you would like to know there have already been at least three:
1. This was the year for the Madrigal Feast and it was scheduled for the same weekend as the Messiah performance. It became clear early on that we were not going to have a crowd, for a variety of reasons--so it was cancelled. No the economy is not the miracle, but the cancellation surely was. I would never have been able to do it. Managed the Messiah, but could not have done them both. As our dear friend, Randy, said, "someone knew."
2. This all happened just as Kris was moving into housing. As you know, we have had her here two years working on this. She literally moved just as it would have been very difficult for her to be here. She is happy as a lark, we are thankful.
3. Some of you know this story already. Last summer, I had a nice pile of cash fall into my lap from a Wisconsin State retirement account that I didn't even know existed. It will take the sting out of the extra medical expenses. As a matter-of-fact, I think I will challenge young Dr. Muler to keep me alive long enough to use it all.

Miracles do happen, just not always the way we want or expect. Good that you can see them.
ReplyDeleteI think you should act on that challenge for Dr. Muler. Let's see how good he really is! ;)

I remember how we all celebrated at Buca when you told us about your windfall. Little did we know how important that money would be. You're right, truly miraculous!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the uplifting update. You're such an amazing person, you see so much good in the world. I love you, Bear.
ReplyDeleteHey Poppy! I'm glad things are going better, and your feeling better. As bad as things can be, you really make everything seem just a little bit better, and I just have to smile. I hope I can see you and Grammie again soon, I miss you both.
