Hi,
There was rain in Chiang Rai, and sunshine in L.A., a return trip to the eye doc, and dinner in a deli.
The ‘Middle Song’ was “Do You Know the Way To San Jose?”. Yeah, you knew it. The ‘Old School Friday’ song should be easy. “Anyone who ever loved, could look at me, and know that I love you. Anyone who ever dreamed, could look at me, and know I dream of you. Knowing I love you so, __ __ __ __ __ would take me in his arms and love me too…"
Hint: The first word of the song is the first word of the title.
Things are a little better, on the emotional front. Except when we talk about it, get a condolence message, see a photo, or think about going home. Basically, nothing’s changed. Distractions seem to be the best medicine. Haven’t had time to do any ‘binge watching’ of favorite shows, but we have been semi-busy with a couple of visits and some retail therapy. In the afternoon we met with Cousins Wendy and Linda for coffee/tea at Dinah’s. There was the usual ‘catching up’, family talk, and then on to politics and the state of the world. It was quite enjoyable.
We had dinner at Jerry’s Deli with our friends Ray and Eiko. Lisa and Ray used to work at the same institute for many years.
Every time Lisa talks to Natcha, she tells us how lonely it is at the house without Daku. He was her daytime companion, hanging out in the kitchen, going for walks around the house and being the silent babysitter. It’s gonna take time. Here’s a photo of Daku and Natcha and one of Daku and Nitchanan.
The evening was spent writing to you and packing for our trip to Palo Alto. There will be a birthday party on Saturday in honor of Joe becoming 95 years old. Lisa’s brother Dan and his son Ryland will be there from New Zealand, step-sister Karen Jo and her extended family, New Hampshire Cousins, Valley Cousins, and lots of Joe’s local friends. It’s going to be quite a weekend.
Have a Wonderful WeekEnd. Time for the ‘Funnies’. And don’t forget the Formula 1 Gran Prix from England.
Peace,
Danny
