Murphy's Law. What can go wrong, will. Not the actual works he spoke, but damn close to it and appropriate tonight.
First, Brother Pete has been having chest pains. He needs another stent put in. They were going to do it next Wednesday. They told him not to do anything at home until then.
His pains go worse yesterday, so he went back to the local hospital and they shipped him up to Providence. They took him around 4:00pm. I talked to the nurse at 10:30 and he was doing great. Thank God. But. And this is a big but. I just talked to him on the phone and he is still having chest pains. They did an EKG and we are waiting for the results.
This is the worse of the last two days. The rest isn�t personal to me, but it effect�s people I know and like.
We had an elderly lady, we will call Millie, all set up to move into one of our vacant units. Everyone in town knows her. Nice lady. I got to work a few minutes early yesterday morning to find two people waiting out front of the office. They were there to pick up paperwork for this lady to fill out because sometime during previous day, poor Millie was rear-ended and was in the hospital with a broken pelvis.
The next news we get came about � hour later. One of our elderly tenants, we will call Irene, had fallen in her apartment the night before and, yup, she was in the hospital.
On a much lighter note, I am going to a book signing later today. I want to see how the big boys do it. There is going to be an author there signing his second book. It is the same bookstore I will be at eventually. I�ve never been in it, so this will be a good dry-run. Besides, I hear there will be food. I�m always up for that.
And on a much, much lighter note. If the kid in this video were mine, I don�t know whether I would be proud of his creativity or want to ground him for the next 5 years. It�s creative, though. I�ll give him that. May not be suitable for small children.
