I'm following all the rules for keeping the brain awake, but it takes such effort.
I've been trying to memorize the tune Bali Hai and all the great chords in it, but unless I have the music in front of me, even if I don't look at it, I can't play it. Music is such great medicine for me. My piano playing leaves much to be desired, but it relaxes me and gives me great pleasure. Listening to music is the only way I can get through my daily housecleaning chores cheerfully. Life would be so routine at this time of my life if it weren't for music, reading and old movies on TV. Politics are exciting. Crossword puzzles and a handy dictionary are good brain exercises, too, so is inventive cooking.
There are so many things I would like to do, but crocheting is really my waterloo.
My second crocheted blanket for Monika and Joe's baby is getting out of shape again, but I will finish it and maybe give it to Big Brother. Shoknows I may be able to salvage it.
I need more inspiration. I'll write again, later.

I don't know if you "take requests", but I'd love it if you could do a brief blog biography about Grandpa Sal's life... The older I get the more remarkable his and Grandma's story is to me... I remember when you and Uncle Tony visited me in the US Senate when I was working for Senator Moynihan and we were having coffee in the Senate Coffee Shop and you were telling me stories about the two of them that just blew my mind... I want my kids to know these stories, their kids to know them, and so on...So if you get the chance, I'd love to see/read that...
