soul train, 1978!

xmas

john is much improved, although they still don't know what's going on exactly --- anyway, we can put a hold on the funeral flowers for now

"the minute-winning days, like flies, buzz home to death"

getting some work done and took dog to the river --- even after over 2" of rain the last couple of days, there was no mud --- the ground was like a sponge
