My niece Jessie, my sister Janet and Mom on Mother's day.

I'm going to Pennsylvania to see Janet May 19th-May 24th.
Janet's really sick, you can tell by her jaundice. (There's a beautiful photo of her and me further down the blog from 7 years or so ago).

By next week Taka should be able to drive again hopefully. It was a trip, I'd been on Taka's case to get the shocks done in our car from like two or three weeks ago. We had also spoken to our repairman, Pedro, who test drove our car and knew we REALLY needed new shocks too. Friday night, driving Taka home from the hospital, I tried to go SO slow- because EVERY bump HURT him!! Seeeee! I called Pedro Saturday morning- he says he had called me two or three days earlier about those shocks- but I didn't get the messages. So- what timing, eh?! Saturday we did get two of the four shocks in the car. It does make a difference!
