My World of Wonders, aka The Wednesday Ws November 6

Where have I been this week?  A long walk from the troll park, the Kennedy Center to see the National Symphony Orchestra, National Airport for a flight to Cleveland, Stow Ohio for a funeral, back to National Airport, a grocery store stop. The Mt Eagle Grill to meet our neighbors for our once a month gathering of LGBTQI neighbors for drinks and dinner. 

Who have I heard from?  A Halloween card from a blogger - what a nice surprise, traded emails with Spo and Mitchel. J's cousin Ray about travel and the funeral. 

What plans am I making?  I have firm dates for a board meeting in Phoenix in early February and will be making travel plans, I have a 5 or 6 day part of next springs big adventure to plan. For the most part I plan to be home for the next almost three months.  

What have I been trying not to think about?  The election.  Truth be told, I am avoiding the subject. 

What have I been cooking? Not much with the travel, chicken and saffron rice. I will cook more in the coming week. 

What am I reading? Essays from the Sunshine State. I finished three books related to articles I am writing last week. So this week is a little quieter. 

What am I listening to? As I write this traffic going by and the Sweet Bear gently snoring. 

What is the big event this week?  The Sweet Bear's birthday, one that ends with a "0".  

Who made me go "huhh! this week? Father Ted, not his really name, the same priest who bumbled Eds funeral, was nearly late and just not very well prepared for Tim. Apparently there is a shortage of priests to do funerals in northeast Ohio. 

Who deserves a huge atta girl this week? Diane, Lisa, Caryn and Sharon, for doing such a wonderful job of organizing everything in Stow.

  2. "What have I been trying not to think about? The election. Truth be told, I am avoiding the subject..." Okay, I won't tell you the result then though that knowledge might assist if you happen to be constipated.

  5. Happy birthday to your companion. As to the election, my companion said this morning "Now all we can hope for is his death", but I responded "Then we'd have President J.D. Vance???" She blanched. Once again.
