01-13-26 it arrived!!
It’s so strange how little snow there is for this time of year.

I picked up Mom and brought her to her Drs appointment. She has a nasty spot in her leg that he took off for a biopsy. It went well and she bought us drive thru Dairy Queen. My guts did not love that.
While I was with her we talked about the fact that growing up our family Dr was a black man. Dr Rivers was kind and it is only in hindsight that I marvel that we had a black Dr in the 60s.
I received a call that my Turkish rug was to be delivered later in the afternoon. I got a text when they were half an hour out and went home to clear the Lego, vacuum and move the current rug. The guys who delivered were so sweet and said they didn’t have another like mine in the truck, that this pattern was usually reserved for Angora rugs. Mine is silk, bamboo and cotton and feels like a dream. I was worried about tariffs and duty but they brought mine in with rugs for a show in Toronto so it didn’t cost me anything else. I love it so much.

I popped back to the office for a bit before heading to Mr Mikes to have dinner and celebrate Donna’s belated birthday. She’d been lost in the wait at her sister’s bedside. I was blessed to be at dinner with Jeanne’s sister Rosie, sister Donna and husband Hogie (Erik), and brother Dan with his wife Terry. We had a lovely visit. Cousins are so special

At 7:30 I had a haircut appointment with Karissa. I always enjoy visiting her and she cut a lot off. I feel so fresh!
