This and that... or Ceci et cela, si tu préfères...


A neighbor over in the next block is still enjoying these lovely flowers, and so am I.

I was supposed to visit one of those expensive specialists of internal medicine today, for a routine report on some recent tests, but I'm too sick. And something about that strikes me as amusing. I called his girl yesterday, explaining that I'm recovering from the "flu" and I don't want to spread it around. She gave me a new appointment, and thanked me for calling.

Then this morning, a call from my Optometrist's about my eye test next Monday. She asked, "Can we reschedule for next Friday instead? The doctor has to attend a funeral on Monday." I said, "I'm recovering from the "flu", so that will be much better, and thanks for calling, Dear." Seems everyone's caught the bug. And it appears to be making us more polite. And that's not a bad thing.
