where are we now?

What day ia it where you are? it’s Friday here, weekend coming up. in lockdown still, again, with the outbreak of stomach flu in the building , so Matt can’t come for Sunday dinner with me in the dining room.

Kate was still here (from Boston), for our birthdays, and Matt and and John and Lesley. We had a birthday. party in my room with take-out pizza delivered, and birthday cake, brought by John and Lesley, celebrating Matt (the 7th), Kate (the 13th) and me (the 21at). It was crowded but it was famiy and we were together, so it was good. So were the pizza and the chocolate cake, And I provided red wine. I’m back to exercise again, going to.a session in a few minutes. I must get stronger.

Talk to you later.

i never intended to be this old

Never considered it, never imagined it.

My father set my sights on the Millennium. “You’ll see it,” he used to say. “I won’t, but you will.”

I believed him.

So when the year 2000 came along, I was ready. It passed. He had passed. But I hadn’t.

I was still here and I didn’t know what to do next.

I still don’t.

I was 60 in 2001.

I’m 94 today. I never thought I’d be this old, .never imagined it.

I still dont’t know what to do next.

Have breakfast.

…I had a cheese omelet.

Now: mail to me and letters from me.

Then what?
