Yes, it's an awesome discovery! And the yellow is still living up to its bright buttery shine. Don't ask me why? The only contact I had with the cold was apparently freezing my ass-ets off while I slept. I woke up momentarily a couple times during the night, so was shocked to sleep all the way to my 8:00 a.m. alarm. But I was frrrreezing, as my cape had slid off the bed to the floor. Hideous feeling.

After brekkie, I got ready for my conference call. Didn't even have time to make my hot choc/coffee, so I drank water and sucked on cough lozenges. Oh, right. Did I forget to mention that I was sneezing my head off and blowing my nose? Sigh. Anyway, I'm feeling much better now. I also hosted two of the cats (the devious rascals had snuck in) in the evening and scraped my freezer after the meeting was over. I also started experiencing sudden crashes of my magnification software that was very aggravating - when you're faced with an ugly screen-of-evil-glare. But, after a few tussles, everything seems to be manageable again. Whew! And that's when all the red accents began to appear. Yes … mystery.

Anyway, I think I'm going to watch a titch of TV. I don't know whether I have the wits about me to watch The Rookie but I'll give it a try. I'd already watched last night's Coroner which was a "to be continued". I hadn't caught this in the first couple of epis. Her son is gay and seriously depressed (now that his mom has lost the house and moved them out into the country). I wondered why this other young guy had his arm around him and then kissed him on the lips. Yes, yes, I was being dense. Until he kissed him, I thought he was a close relative.

We were a little sad at the blind group because our outreach guy on the executive died suddenly yesterday, just after having moved into a limited assisted living facility. He'd been happy about the change, so I wonder whether it was unfamiliarity that made him stumble and fall in the bathroom. If you ever wonder why I tend to memorize everything....

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Thank you for your kind sentiments but even I'm on the outside looking in. As the newest member on the Executive, with vision loss as a common denominator, I don't even know whether I'd met him at any functions as he was older than I am. But, from our Prez's notification, he'd also been a member and volunteer at one of the oldest and well respected (old money) Anglican churches in the city. I had the honour of singing there at two funerals - obviously decades ago!
