GEE, I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT KIND OF RESPONSE, SO I WON'T LET ONE BIT** RUIN THE DAY.

LETS SEE, THE UROLOGIST OFFICE SENT ME TWO BILLS AND A THREAT TO TURN IT OVER TO A COLLECTION AGENCY. FUNNY, I SAID, WHEN I WAS IN, THE NINCOMPOOP AT THE WINDOW TOOK PICTURES OF MY MEDICARE AND AARP INSURANCE CARDS.OH, WE BILLED THE WRONG INSURANCE. DUH.

AS I SAID MY HOUSE IS ALMOST SOLD. JUST WAITING FOR THE APPRAISAL AND THE BUYER'S MORTGAGE APPROVAL. WE ARE RENTING AN APARTMENT UNTIL WE DECIDE WHERE WE WANT TO SETTLE. I DON'T WANT TO GET CAUGHT UP IN THE REAL ESTATE BUYING FRENZY. BESIDES, WE ASKED THE KIDS TO BID ON WHO WANTS US TO BE BY THEM. OUR DAUGHTER IS LEADING AT THIS MOMENT. HER BID IS $1.50. THE CAT WILL REMAIN EXECUTOR OF THE ESTATE.

THE APARTMENT IS NEW, NEXT TO A PRAIRIE PATH AND THREE MILES FROM THE LAKE AND BEACH. WE'VE BEEN TOSSING STUFF AND GETTING READY FOR A GARAGE SALE LABOR DAY WEEKEND. THE BUYER PURCHASED ALL THE HEAVY FURNITURE WE DIDN'T WANT ANYMORE. HOORAY!

I HEAR A FAMILIAR VOICE YELLING "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?" MEANS BACK TO TOSSING.

THANKS AGAIN FOR THE SUPPORT AND KIND WORDS.
