On the good side: I managed to get all my mom’s furniture moved out of the house and put into storage. Close, now, to putting things to rest, a year and a half after her death. Seventy-five degrees in DC; finer weather one couldn’t ask for. Saw family and friends, including some folks I hadn’t seen in fifteen, sixteen, seventeen years, and had a fine time.
On the sad side: my dad’s mom died Sunday, so I’ll be going back down this weekend. At 92, she’d had a full and happy life, and tonight I’m putting together something to say at the funeral on Friday. Between my mom and his mom, I worry that my dad’s feeling pretty conscious of his own mortality.

Sorry to hear that, Mike. Will you still be going to San Antonio? We at Kairosnews are still planning on going out to dinner Wednesday night. Hope you can come.
Mike: condolences on your grandmother. 92 is a ripe old age, but…well, any age is too young if it’s someone you’re close to.
My thoughts are with you and your dad.
