Hello, Sprite, all seems okay at the moment. How goes it with you?
2:24 am

that is good to hear. I am doing great. Walked Terra yesterday, no ill effects, the whole thing exceeds expectations.

Oh wow! Nice one. Keep it up. Looks like all will be well for the big day at tgis rate!

am even gonna try driving this week. First a short way to the stores , with Rob along for if I cannot do it. But it feels like I will be able to. And then, yes, Rose and Don and I will be able to do most of the things we wanted to.

How are, Caya & Tim doing, Sprite?
2:32 am
sprite
very well, both of them. Tim is here now, will go back to edinburgh for a week to do his finals and put his stuff in storage, and then he will be back here until september. He already managed to land a vacation job as assistent brewer.
2:34 am
sprite
and caya has a little dog, and the owner of the campus building found out and now she has to move out. That was a little stressful but now it looks like a blessing in disguise. She and two friends can probably rent a house for less than they pay now, with a garden and all.
2:35 am
zoozzoom
The future is looking good! I think that has something to do with the parenting.
2:36 am
sprite
awww that is a very sweet thing to say
2:36 am
zoozzoom
What is her dogs name? Firma?
2:37 am
sprite
roflollll that would have been brilliant. Or Cotta. No, it is Lewi. He came with that name, and Caya thought of changing it but then got used to it very soon.
2:38 am
zoozzoom
Glad you got it lol....Nice name still.
2:41 am
zoozzoom
How is, Rose?
2:41 am
sprite
he is a cutie. And he works miracles for Caya. Depression is over, and the harm ocd is much more manageable.
2:41 am

a nudge for the ep7 would be very much appreciated. Can't see it for the life of me.
2:42 am

Rose is busy as an ant on a hot floor. Lots to do for church and preparing for the journey.

The name of our street is Yellow Yellow Circle. With the daffodils and forsythia blooming it is very appropriate

(((Trifioso))) My most sincere sympathies. Talk when you need to, stay silent when you are empty. We are all here for you. A long time ago, I hosted wakes and buried my parents less than 6 months apart. I was 29. I came away from those wakes feeling like those were the most horrendous parties I ever hosted. You do what you need to do for yourself during the wake - get out of that room, eat, drink water, go for a walk, hang out with the smokers, then go back in with fresh eyes & a refreshed spirit. Prayers.

Nice advice, helen.

BzznBea - Thank you, it's pretty much only based on my experience. Friends are the best. One came over and simply sat with me for 2 hours! No talking. Just companionship, which I so needed. I'm just sorry I didn't see these posts sooner.
8:05 am
BzznBea
Yes, friends are what help you get through those times.
8:06 am

Indeed. Where would we be without them? :)

As a midwesterner, I never understood the wake thing.
8:19 am
dan2bit
there is this amazing authentic Greek Deli in DC called "Greek Deli" - it is sort of like the old Seinfeld :Soup Nozi: episode if you remember that
8:20 am
dan2bit
only it's all kinds of yummy greek food, and the old man who runs it and does most of the cooking is a lovely person, not a jerk. But the line is always out the door for lunch and you better know what you want when you get to the front
8:21 am
dan2bit
last week, the DC Health Department shut them down because they don't have their own restroom for customers (which they never have). There were almost riots!
8:21 am
Trifioso
has it been there long, dan2? I lived in the area in the early 90s, and think I remember something like that
8:22 am
dan2bit
yes I think he's been there 20 years or more. It's on 19th street between L & M
8:22 am
BzznBea
Do they have seating for customers, dan?
8:23 am
dan2bit
there are 3 or 4 outside tables when the weather is nice, but otherwise its just a literal lunch counter
8:23 am
dan2bit
they have been granted an extension and are open again - I think when the building next door finishes construction, they will have the ability to share a restroom with that building, but I am not sure
8:24 am
BzznBea
Then I don't see why they need public restrooms. And why would they just now, after all these years, cite them for that?
8:24 am
dan2bit
exactly!!! some bureaucrat got on his high horse I bet.
8:25 am
Trifioso
i worked at 23rd and m, so I think i am remembering the place you mentioned
8:25 am

but Kostas is beloved and his food is delicious, generous and cheap, so hopefully it will all work out

Isn't that the way it usually goes.
