You know I do recall the timing of your mom's death..BUT due to the time differential between here & England, it was Christmas Eve here.. I need to get that straight.

And I do understand what you mean re: mom being gone already..my years as a hospital chaplain & working with the ethics committee, it was always challenging to have folks understand on their own, what life is etc. I have always felt we try to hard to keep a body alive at any cost.. NOW, if the mind & spirit are there, great..but too often I observed the relatives REALLY didn't care about the person, just wanted the Social Security check that was part of them remaining alive. Sad, isn't it.

I already have DNR, living will, power of attorney etc documents signed. I do not want to be sustained if "I am gone" more or less.

Will be interesting to see how it unfolds for Phil. I am sure he appreciates you all the more since he had a relationship w/crazy lady...sometimes we don't really appreciate what we have until we have opportunity to see the dark side of "what else" is out there.

Need to bathe & get some things done.. you have next two days /pings.. I will be posting a few things both days along the way.

Morocco.. In movie Babel was 1/3 story line in Morocco.. some positive observations desite the poverty & primitive life depicted in movie. This was a rural area/not big city.

I am seeing The Nativity tonight, finally.. with my friend Paul..close family friend for close to 20 years. Never married, retired Chemistry teacher.

Saw Rocky Balboa this past week. Fun (I don't like boxing much however) ..but have always enjoyed his flicks & this one for some reason resonated well with me..

I am guessing your package did NOT arrive yet? It was supposed to be there by Christmas..I paid accordingly. UPS. Sent to work addy. I did recieve the two books yesterday.. thank you! great recipes in the one & ideas/info in other.
