We thought there was something hinky about that rocket launch. On the street, I could hear neighbors saying "That's not right!" watching the glittering ring and then the flame descending.
My Cousin Johnny died two days ago. While expected, it was a blow. He was a pillar of the family for the generation after my parents. The mom and I won't be able to make it back to Schenectady for a funeral -- she's too fragile now, and I can't afford my part of the travel expenses. We'll have Masses said, but I don't know about flowers. Maybe if my brother goes up we can contribute to the after-memorial dinner. It will be at the family favorite restaurant in the neighborhood where Mom and Dad and, briefly, my brother and I grew up.
Also, I finally managed to block the Hurricane Shawl. I'm pleased with the way it came out.
