Mid November words

Aloha. IS that the word? No.
This morning I have spent near 3 hours working with this new laptop - not a Dell, Dude, but an HP - watching it do some songs and dances that get so close and then throw itself back into No Mode at all. Frustrating to a dither and a faretheewell - arrrrrrrrrrrr.
What's news?
Charlotte goes in in a week, the 20th, for her operation - I am sure I elaborated on what occurred last venture to MGH - a no go. I have nothing to offer on this but that she is being put through the mill, physically, emotianally and - damn them! - financially. Her benefits have gotten fucked up time and time again, with only her intervention getting anything accomplished. What on Earth happens to those that aren't able to follow up or ask the right person the right questions? Oh, I think I know first-hand. Damn. If you do, or if you don't.
It's been getting definitely colder daily - some as low as the bottom 20s. Brrrr. The cat's dish here outside had ice on it the otehr morning , or so it appeared. Here, kitty.
Insects are done for the year with this weather. Yay! For that alone I will out up with some cooler clime, although insects per se in LA were a minor inconvenience, if at all. FLeas could have at it, but -
Anyhow, next week is Thanksgiving, thus beginning the onslaught of holiday madness. Charlotte is planning dinner on Sunday for the masses, as she will be in MGH and not feeling much like doing anything but press the buttons for more meds.
Marshall arrives this next week too? Who knows. He cancels as quick as.... he can. Expect anything and nothing.
Voila.
Voir Dire.
"Your Honor, I object." Whatever.
Sustain.
Maintain.
Proceed.
