milestones

nearing 200 entries on this blog. a week from saturday will be 8 months since Linda died. yikes. well, 8 months x 30 days = 240 possible days to write. i know there have been many days missing (it's OK) and some days with more than one (OK too).

on the plane back from LA i finished my first crossword puzzle in 7 months. ok, so it was the easy one in the inflight magazine. it still counts. on the way down, daniel and i did the puzzle on finding singers who have 5 letters in both names. on the way back i did other puzzles. flying with daniel is far better than flying alone, for many reasons.

i wore linda's favorite winter scarf: basically black with reddish/purplish paisley edges. it is nice and warm.

ketzl had a strawberry before bedtime tonite. cantaloupes are hard to come by these days. he has a funny tickle spot. if i scratch the back of his neck in a certain place, he does automatic licking of his chest. right now we're in bed (well i'm in, he's on top of the covers) and he wanted me to scratch him. now that i'm done with that, he's got his head on my knee and is settling down. what a cat!

tomorrow will be an early morning.
