Good morning!

Whatever:
Spouse:
Called this morn around 0100. Got to mom's safely and finally. Whew! :-)

Personal, entrepreneur:
Didn't have a chance to get to the post office yesterday. Will do this morning.

And speaking of errands....

Some foodshopping tonight. Buy condolence card for a family member. Buy treats for this Friday. Deposit R.'s paycheck.

I hope to do some writing as well. Call family members and a bud to see how they're all doing. Whew! Busy.
