I have so much to write that my brain pretty much shut itself off like a Mr. Coffee drip pot
yesterday I composed a NOTICE TO VACATE to the slumlord and mailed it certified so he will be sure to see it when he checks his PO Box in the middle of December it was professional and curt merry Christmas slumlord! and thank you innerlubes for your spectacular form letters

then I mailed change of address cards for both The Surfer and me so all our mail from today forward will go to Summer's End then I drove out to the island and met the male former owner of the house and his niece who is ten and the niece and I had a conversation and I mentioned that I was on my way to NY when I bought the house and she really swooned and said she always wanted to go there and she meant it and I got it deep because I wanted to go when I was ten also and then I told her I loved the blackboard in the dining room that I would use it to write and to help when I teach violin lessons and she, Z, said she wants to play violin

you never know the deeper reasons why things open up for you for me
this morning I had a conversation with Z's mom who said Z fell in love with me she said I was like a grandma which warmed my heart to bursting and I told her that I would give her a deep discount for lessons instead of $250 a month only $50 a month because I know they are in dire dire and I understand dire I understand dire dire too I understand deeply

so
new house
new violin student who loves to read and wants to go to NY
the universe is rapidly expanding
I'm sick as fuck maybe strep so I'm letting The Surfer do the work today and I'm staying home today but still

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

good morning Darklings and Love
