Chores today, all piled up and all done now! I just walk down Wilshire and acomplish one block after another – drug store, Staples, bank, camera store, post office, market, and then the Beach!
Late this afternoon I attended a memorial for a friend’s mother who died very unexpectedly. She was perfectly fine, she had plans, then she fell down the stairs and died. One of the speakers noted an old Yiddish expression: ‘Man plans, God laughs’. Oh that God, what a kidder.
