Greetings Albert. I am thank you.

You're correct. I knew someone didn't just got myself into a brain muddle as to who.

Wait, does Page eat mushrooms?

So do some people ...

Here at mum's in SC we can actually plant the bulbs outdoors in late Spring and they will bloom the following year. Provided they get enough moisture over the summer.

Purchased four amaryllis bulbs to force bloom for the holidays. Three different varieties, all red. Two bulbs are Double Dragon, the variety I grew last year. They are large deep red double flowers with multiple stems and blossoms. I'll give one of those to the neighbors, they really liked ours last year. The other bulbs are newer varieties. Inferno, another large double flowered type and Rapido, which is a smaller variety that has multiple stems. It will be fun to see what they are like.

Darn, I'm becoming predictable.

Maybe if you start wishing for bright and sunny skies you'll get the rain you need.

I believe this qualifies as plaid and I'm an expert. Mine, mine, mine ...

Write the date on it ...

Excellent chapter. I love the song choice. Sinatra's version was on the playlist during the trip from PA to SC this past weekend. If I close my eyes I can hear Adam and Chipper ...

Illuminating ...

Portion them out and pop 'em in the freezer for later.

What type of swords?

Why would you mix all of that together? You making a hash?

Mum says now don't get in a tizzy Albert. Gary's doc is being thorough in getting to understand how healthy his heart is.

Glad you like him. Mum says it's important to feel good about your doc, means alot to future health. I'd say he was being thorough in his information gathering. Also, a good thing.

Mum had a good visit with her cardiologist. How did your's go?

G'day y'all from this bit of the not so warm and sunny South.

Thank you both.

Well usually I accuse you of being a hopeless romantic and using love to achieve redemption. I still think you're a hopeless romantic but sometimes romance is not enough and love doesn't always bring redemption in the way we expect. Here instead of redeeming Scott you use love to redeem Dan. Scott isn't in a place to be redeemed, not saying that it might not come some day but it isn't going to be Dan's love that brings him redemption. Dan however is finally where he needs to be for the love of his friends to reach him and give him the support to extract himself from a bad relationship but more importantly for his love of self to spur him to act in his own best interest. So while it's sad that their relationship had to end it's a good thing that it did. While this might not seem like your typical work it is imbued with your usual consumate skill. Nicely done, very nicely done.

Now that we're here and I have time I'm off to read Gary's latest story.

Mum's neighbor had homemade beef stew waiting in the fridge when we got home. It was simply heat and eat for a tasty meal.

Why? I mean, I really like peanut butter cookies but why flourless?

No faceplants, we arrived safely. However, it's a chilly 47/8°, rainy and windy. Typical of November in PA.
