  • more than satisfactory

    Cumbia Radio on Pandora lifted me last night.

    12:00 pm appointment for me and Mary to get our teeth cleaned at the dentist's today. Dr. Rector was not there. I learned that his son Evan was injured in a motorcycle accident Saturday before last in Columbia. Lost control in a curve and collided with a car. Still in Vanderbilt's trauma unit after losing his left arm and leg.


    Mary and I lunched at Rafael's, up the road. Mary had a ham and cheese calzone. I ordered spaghetti, child's plate.

    During my cleaning, I had mentioned that I was headed there. So, guess who came into the restaurant behind us. The better part of Dr. Rector's staff.

    Back home, Mary and I had just enough time for our afternoon coffees before meeting Mike Darnell of Keller Williams Realty at the warehouses. 3:00 pm. He had prospective tenants for my #2 and #3. The meeting went well. I'll know how well in two weeks.

    While we were at the warehouses, sister Deborah drove up with Mother. She had a jar of honey she bought me and a check from at&t to deposit for Mother.

    Back home, brother George drove up to ask if I had new renters. He had seen me at the warehouses. I told him what I knew.

    Mary and I watched Broken Flowers (2005) from Netflix. Jaded Don Juan learns that he may have a nineteen year old son and goes looking for him. Bill Murray puts the timing he learned as a comedian to good work here. He's spot on. The directing is near flawless, as well. I could watch this again.

    Finished off Mary's calzone for supper. Spent a little quality time at the outpost. Watched a flaming full moon rising from behind the distant hills. A satisfactory end for a more than satisfactory day.

    69.9 °F, mostly cloudy.

  • The lunch looks tasty! I must be a good restaurant since the mere mention of eating there prompted the dental staff to head in that direction!!Sparky was up and outside at 4:30 this morning to see the lunar eclipse of the blood moon!

  • Yum Italian food; Calzone sounds good. so does fresh honey.
    I am pleased to read that you had a pleasant day. I am sorry your doctor's son is hurt. I shall lift up a prayer for him.

  • I do that at the beach sometimes ;)

  • Looks like a day well-spent. The most awful thing to befall a parent is injury or death to one's child. Hopefully, the young man will thrive, despite the loss of his limbs.
