susandennisThe phone did get here and it is a beauty... (or, I learned today, that I get special credit when I use a certain word - so... it is a 
JOY!)
Plus the monthly contract is about half of what I thought it was going to be. More than my current contract but only $10 more and it does way way way more and in color. It's the size of a small candy bar and weighs far less. I love it.
Today was busy busy busy. I was really surprised when I looked up and it was already 5 p.m. And I got home to another surprise. My brother sent me a book that looks really interesting and a CD of Jaques Brel is Alive and Well in Paris. This is an off Broadway play we saw, as a family, when I was in college. I was enthralled with the music and got the album and played it until the grooves wore out. I moved on.
I hadn't heard the music or thought about it in at least 30 years. My brother included a letter about how my playing the record so much really affected him and that the CD continues to be one of his favorites and he's wanted to make me a gift of it for a long time. I had no idea. I listened to it this afternoon at work while I was editing stuff and it was like a visit from an old friend. How is it that I can remember every single word of a 2 album CD of songs after 30 years and cannot remember what someone told me 30 minutes ago???
