Tonight, friends, I believe I’m suffering from TBS — Tired Brain Syndrome. It is perfectly all right if you don’t recognize that particular syndrome, as I just made it up! There is so much going on as I write this (about 11:30 p.m. Pacific Time), but it sounds like the road crew is doing its best to irritate everyone within the sound of their back-up beepers.
Tomorrow is the funeral of a delightful man who was a regular at our local Chinese restaurant and bar; having him die of a massive coronary at 57 leaves a Moose-sized hole in my heart. I hope the celebration after the service reflects the love many shared for him.
Halloween decorations — cute ones, not scary — are beginning to appear around our house. Perhaps I’ll get a picture posted tomorrow night.
Meanwhile, I’m yawning to beat the band. Time for sleep. Sweet dreams.
Fawn-
Very sorry to hear about such a young man’s passing – in what should have been the prime of his life. And I’m sorry you’ll be in mourning today.
On the TBS – you’re making up afflictions at 11:30 PM, that amazing brain you house is not tired – only your eyes are 😉 Hope you finally found a sound sleep.

My mom’s B’day is Halloween – she’s a good witch 😉

I have decided not to go to Moose’s funeral today, but to spend the time quietly reflecting on what a good friend he was…my sweet daughter and I were just now sharing memories of a big, tough guy who genuinely loved people (especially women) and always went the extra mile for them. I have always been a sucker for gentle, big men.
My schedule has tightened up so since I started working (fancy that!) and Lily has Tap/Jazz this afternoon. Instead of running around like a crazy woman between preschool/school/funeral/dance, I’m going to chill just a bit.
I love that your mom’s birthday is Halloween; my mom died on Friday the 13th — she’s a good witch, too. – Fawn

Men named Moose can’t be anything other than bigger-than-life and warm-hearted. He sounds like he was one of those folks who brought a little piece of heaven on earth.
I’m glad you’re taking it easy today – sometimes there is nothing better than chilling. We women sometimes think the world will stop turning (and it will, but only for a day 😉 ).
One of my older sister’s birthday’s is Friday the 13th too (the jury is still out good witch or bad 😉 )
I have no doubt your mom is a beautiful good witch with gorgeous angel wings.
