Not a bad idea. Let me know if you recognize the music at the end, okay?

Hi beachy...((HUGS))...the next door neighbors run what I believe is an assisted living home. They are from Tibet. He has family in Tibet and Nepal who were really affected by the earthquake.

He said to call him any time I need help. I could tell he has helped folks up from the floor more than once. I so appreciate his offer. I would have called the fire department.

Good afternoon, E....((HUGS))...today is going a little better than last evening. Sitting at the mechanics as my car is serviced. Then back to the chiropractor if I have time.

Hope you and Bo had a fun day.
