We're getting closer!  I laid down the law last weekend to AJ - he has too many unfinished items on his docket - and he has done nothing all summer!  He has now picked a tentative new date for his Court of Honor - July 30th.  Now he has to make sure he can hold it somewhere!  I gave him one option (out of many!) to have it at the church - and last night gave him the contact name and number to call to get a use permit.    He hemmed and hawed around about calling, so I dug out an -mail address for the church.  The e-mail bounced back (they must have changed providers!) so then he e-mailed a person that I know at church that is involved in a lot of the committees.  Maybe he knows the new e-mail address.  Wouldn't it have been simpler to just pick up the phone and call?  I guess that is why this whole project is a learning experience for him.  And this is just the beginning of planning the Court.  I hope a month is enough time!

Poor Ralph - he went in a few weeks to the doctor about a large lump behind his knee.  The doctor ordered a sonogram, which came back clear, so Ralph was told to wait a couple of weeks to see if it went away.  It didn't, so he went back in to the doctor yesterday.  In the meantime, he had seen an article about COPD, and felt that he had a lot of the symptoms, so was going to talk to the doctor about it.  He now has an MRI scheduled for tomorrow on his leg and sees a cardiologist next Tuesday. They ruled out COPD via e-rays and an EKG, so now he goes to a specialist, and they don't know what is going on with his leg yet.  As usual, we will wait and see!
