Had myself a merry little Christmas
Christmas Eve I didn’t get out of work until after 6:00. Other years the management let us out early, but this year we hung in there until the bitter end of the day. I felt sorry for the clean-up shift that came on after we were done; I imagine most of them were not out…
From bickering to a fight.
Do I know how to pick my times or what? Yesterday I got out of work early, came home, ran out for lunch (The Prof wanted Thai for some reason) and then came back and worked the aparmtent into some semblence of order. We finished at about 4:30 – guests said they’d be arriving at…

OK, I promise to knock off the “M ±” stuff after this entry. I suspect it comes from watching too much Babylon 5. Then again, I’m not sure it’s possible to watch too much Babylon 5. The Younger Sister called this morning to let me know she was now well into the coughing/sneezing/nose-blowing portion of…

Iâm sitting here at Big Name Book Store behind the charity gift wrap table. I am by myself. Thatâs pretty nearly literal, as the store is nearly devoid of customers. At least half of the non-employees who are here are located in the café drinking stuff out of tall white paper cups with sippy lids…
It didn’t help.
It’s 2:14 and I’m not asleep.
A deck, a warm evening, a glass of wine, and …
Now we’ll see if we can’t translate that into a job.
this is the kind of letter that is tough to write, but you pull it off. too bad they can’t know more about you.
I think that’s pretty good. I tried to read it from the recipient’s perspective. I think that you waited until this time of year is actually very good. The first holiday season after losing a loved one is very difficult, and this letter might make it easier. The only thing I might even suggest to add is that you are taking exceptional care of their child’s liver, that you don’t drink and are careful about medication that could damage it. They might feel better to know that the doctors are unsure as to why your original liver failed but that you were not engaging in behaviors that could have put you at risk. Oh, and you could add that it is working normally.
The above are just suggestions, and those particulars are not necessary, I suppose, but if it were the Kid, I would feel better to know that whoever got his organs would take good care of them.

Great letter. You have always had a way with words.
Beautiful…

What a beautiful letter.
I would not change a thing.
Telling them about your past health would only make them sad and they do not need to know that.
You did an excellent job telling them just what they needed to know….that you are leading a ‘normal, healthy and happy life’ once again, thanks to their ‘decision’.
That will make them ‘happy’ knowing that they did they right thing. Also knowing that part of ‘them’ is living on, in you, is comforting to them, alone.
Again….
What a Beautiful letter.
Love,
Honey
P.S…
You letter also tells them…
What a ‘Beautiful person’ you are.
I think it’s a great letter. I think you did a great job showing how much a difference it has made to your life. I’m glad you were able to find the words.
