I start with the most important one first…
Mother, sometimes referred to in my circles as “Mrs. B” has had a second opinion relative to her health issues. She does have a blockage, albeit a single one, and will have a heart cath next Thursday, after which it will be determined whether to do a stent or a bypass operation. The doctor has pronounced her stable and has given her permission to drive.
I suspect, even as I write this, that they’re on the way out to the cottage for cocktails.
I am still packing furiously, and am projecting departure for Bangkok late in the third week of September. I’ll be heading to Brunswick, Georgia in the morning to haul a load to storage and to fetch back to Florida the big Mercury Colony Park station wagon, so that the next load to storage will be a larger one.
And now, I’m off to O Bistro for dinner, bringing along my own bottle of wine as I dispose of the wine supply at home.
