Hi everyone.
Beautiful day here in Delray-les-Embrums, blazing sunshine, slight breeze. Storms are expected tonight. We won't worry about it.
I'll have dad take pictures of Lucy and me some time soon, I promise. Poor thing is afraid of lightning and the camera's flash will need to be disabled. We don't want a skittish snake.
Good news, everyone: Lucy was fed last night and she ate. All that hunting really paid off.
Dad's house still hasn't sold. The buyer failed to obtain a mortgage. It's one thing to have $100K in cash, but it's quite another to a get $600K mortgage, I guess.
Dad is, by nature, anxious and fragile concerning the future. We haven't broached the subject of moving in with us yet. He has enough on his plate with that empty house that is not selling. We'll wait a while until we put it to him.
Tonight's dinner will be a watercress salad with poached salmon, glazed carrots and barley pilaf. There is dessert already made. Should be good.
I joined the Palm Beach Literacy Coalition. I'll help 3 school age kids, twice a week, to hone their reading skills. Literacy has always been very important to me.
We are about to start again. Lunch is almost over. Gotta go.
Take care, everyone.
Sylvain.
