After our party, a son-in-law took this selfie.
Fantasies of a family and friends' reunion with some of us staying at the Siletz Movie House and a boat fishing procession to a wayside park and beyond into Siletz Bay. We will celebrate old and new memories. Anybody ever heard of a portable organ we can play at the park. One of Don's brothers is looking for a portable piano keyboard. What we do all hinges on the Covid situation and we are all flexible. We might down-scale our reunion to McDonald's forest cabin.
I have many fantasies. Like keeping the house and inviting couples to stay with me when one of them wants to just paint and the other plans outings on the ocean or rivers or mountain trails. After our meeting on Friday a granddaughter and boyfriend brought an array of his family's Mexican foods. so comforting! Enough for all and the visiting Hospice nurse! Granddaughter and boyfriend are returning next Friday to paint with me. By then I hope to have new canvases - large ones.

My colonoscopy canceled.
Don's impacted bowels are slow to clear and I am scrambeling to get him a cough assist machine so he won't need to take so many constipating medications.
The good news in addition to the ALS Association can loan us a donated cough assist machine, we won the appeal for almost $900 for the the current respiratory devise. he uses to sleep at night.
Between cleaning up paint jars and cleaning up poop that seeps around the impactment now I am giving away pears and apples because there is no time to can or dry them.
Now and then, yesterday and today I make headway on four old paintings that only need a few brush strokes of change.

Good that you got them to pay for it but too bad you had to fight to get it. Seems like people with health problems have enough without businesses trying to not pay what should be part of the business.
