The Lights are On and Somebody's Home...Phyllis

When I was little, my mom used to tie my lunch money into the corner of a handkerchief so I wouldn't loose it on my way to school. I resisted the urge to do that for Sue yesterday when she left, although I did call ahead to the airline and ask the a flight attendant keep an eye on her and make sure she got off in the right city.

It appears that I should have tied her cell phone into the corner of a hanky because she lost it at the airport! Sue...who is never without her phone, who always answers on the first ring, who has had the same phone number since man started walking upright...had to go to the ATT store and buy a new phone!

On the bright side, she has a new phone now and we have again established contact. However, I think it's going to be up to me to keep our blog current, unless she can tear herself away from boat rides, jumbo shrimp dinners and visiting brothers she rarely gets to see.

Sue can sit down and hammer out a thousand words without even getting drunk first. I can't do that. I'm sweating now. I have to write, rewrite, change my mind and write again. So have patience with me. Don't PUSH me! Don't tap your foot and roll your eyes at me! It doesn't come easy to me...words...words with letters.

So anyway, Oh! Look that the time! I have to get ready for work. I could have sat here for hours writing another sentence, but I must go. Talk to you soon, Sue! Dogs are fed, watered and happily laying around. Birds are fed and watered and chirping like little...uh...birds. The lights are on and somebody's home!
