The wind has been blowing like nuts and it has been raining pretty hard these past few hours. There was even a tornado watch for our area! We only get really small ones, happily. Still, I hope if there are any here they don't do damage or hurt anyone.
Mike has been having a lot of trouble with his back. He says this has happened before, but now it's been more than a week. He is uncomfortable lying flat on his back and standing too long, but sitting, strangely, doesn't hurt much. He even drove into Brooklyn on business today and said he was okay. He can't stand up completely straight. I hope he feels better soon.
My sister Susan has spoken to my mother again about assisted living. She suggested the place where my uncle is living. Mom wasn't greatly happy about it but not 100% against it, either. I think she's starting to realize she needs the help. My sisters have been great about taking care of her. I don't have the room, and I doubt my mother would want to come back here, anyway. All her friends have passed on.
That must be a strange feeling, to realize everyone you knew as a friend is gone!
