This week was significant for many reasons. I finally reduced my storage by one POD (as long as "I" means Jim Stewart doing all the work and Debbie doing all the selling). I completed my deposition (as long as completed doesn't include reading and signing off on the thing). Lorraine and Jim took me out to a celebration dinner for this. (Thanks and YUM)
Today, I went to the memorial service for Jack Popejoy. If you're not from the Los Angeles area you would need to know that Jack was a local AM newscaster on the all news channel. He covered the earthquakes and any and every emergency in the area. He was a calm person and presented the news in a balanced and informative way, which is very nearly a lost art in my mind. He also happened to be the mate to a friend of mine, so I spent most holidays in their company and got to know him in a different way than most of his followers on the radio. He was a nice person, witty, helpful, pleasant and a good listener. I'll miss him. It was an honor and a privilege to know him.
In the meantime, I got a flat yesterday so tomorrow I get to buy a new tire. I just got tires in October but there you have it...oh well, the van won't run with three. I will be in LA (by popular demand) until next weekend. Frankly, I need the time to compact my stuff for transport in the van - and as much as my body likes Colorado, I need a little TLC to get me through the next phase of this transition.
