The Play's the Thing

Our breakfast group at Mi Challitas has grown. Next week we expect George to join us. As usual, we had good food and good company.

Hardy, Bob, Pat, Steve, Jan, Jean, Ken, and Lee

After breakfast we went to Just a Cut so I could get a haircut (something Ken no longer has to worry about). It came out really short, partly because the woman who cut my hair had limited English. Of course, it will grow, and meanwhile Judy says it's cute.

This afternoon Hardy and Judy rode with us to South Texas College for a performance of "Daddy's Dyin',Who's Got the Will? by Del Shores. It's a comedy, but also shows some of the family dynamics around the death of a parent, some negative and in the end, some positive. Photos were not allowed. The performances were a bit uneven, but the student who played Daddy was spot on.

Tonight I had a Google Hangout with Ed and Julie and kids. Even when the video is jerky, it's still great to see everyone. I called Carol and talked with her and her sister Gail from Boston. She was in Texas for the Dorey sibling reunion.

It's still pretty darn cold here, so we didn't get much walking in today. Jean said she had gone to the mall to walk after breakfast. We'll try that some time.
