I am listening to all the labour sounds in the hood: shoevling gravel it sounds like, car, trucks, birds etc.

no conversations much are overheard.

I tried to speak with my mother but her line was busy. I spoke to dad this afternoon.

His hump on his neck is hurting like mad and now mom has neck issues too.

They are very old and it is truly by the Grace of Buddha and God that they are so fit and autonomous. Thank you God! May this continue for them and us all too! Om mani peme hung amen!
