Stuff and fruit.

1. Grandpa D has been in the hospital most of a week and is fighting going home without oxygen because he feels like he still can't breath but the machines are saying he's fine. I side with him, he sounded watery and crunchy on the phone. He's a strong confident man, and hearing him admit he needed the O2, and sound upset on the phone just tore right through me.

2. Grandpa B apparently got bitten by *something* and had a fever of 102 for most of this week. I found out today from Grandpa D, who asked me how he was. He's another immortal type that just never slows down..so this was a surprise as well. Grandpa B is Mom's Dad, so I followed up with her. She apologized and then unloaded the drama that is what's up with the rest of my family on me. I'll spare you the details. Let's just say that a lot of my family is blue collar (siblings especially), and jobs are going away right now.

3. The good news is that it's Friday. I have a box of produce, a case of figs, and three lbs of strawberries all begging for my attention. I also have a boy who will make me Clafoutie.

So if I seem a little distracted, or slightly jumpy, I apologize. I'm waiting for some phone calls and worrying about some loved ones.

Now I need to go get eggs and Chevre, and try to finish the end of my day without missing any important details. Wish me luck :)

life, fruit, family
