I need a death do over. Let us go back to the morning Carlton died? I’d hug Carlton. One last time. But, that is no biggie. He was loved. He knew it. I was loved. I still know it. Two things I’d like to change.
1. I wish I had taken Carlton’s boss – the man who scared Carton into AA – to one of the AA meetings I went to to pay respects right after Carlton died. Cliff needs to know how many people his intervention helped.
2. Some of Carlton’s AA friends are dedicating a rock to him on Wednesday morning. I wish I had thought to order a maile or ti lei to put on the rock. No way one can get here from Hawai’i by early Wednesday AM. Heck, if I had known I could have frozen the ti lei I got when I left Kona. I have it drying on a picture frame right now.
As I said, I need a death do over.
Made heaps of progress on the taxes this morning. My taxes and Carlton’s taxes are almost done. Well, they are done. They need to “rest” (or maybe it is me that needs to rest)… And be checked one last time. Then off they go. In any case – they are good enough to take to the lawyer on Monday.
Lots of running around on tap next week. I hope the card that gets me up and running with ZipCar shows up in snail mail soonest. I am going to try to sign up with Uber. I think I can use my antique cell phone and my iPad (it has a data plan) and make it work. I could always get a smartphone – me I kinda like my current system.
Lots of flowers today. Not much variety. But lots of crocus, hellebores, snowdrops, winter aconite etc. And no snow at all.
Update: UBER in operational.
I’m wondering if you could record the dedication Wednesday and make copies for both yourself and Cliff. If anyone could figure out how to do it, that would be you.
I’m moving to Virgina. You have been finding beautiful Spring flowers. I have seen one crocus…yellow.
