I returned home today from my five day stay in Montreal, tired and looking forward to sleeping my own bed. I noticed some improvement in mom since my last visit. Even if she won’t admit it, she is getting around somewhat easier with a little less pain. An adjustment on her meds have also cleared the brain fog she has been experiencing, but not quite fully as, the other day, I caught her attempting to make a call with the t.v. remote. Still, there’s been definite improvement and here’s hoping that recovers enough to start enjoying her independence again.
Back on the home front, I’ve got a pre-pitch for that action-adventure series tomorrow, a zoom chat about another show on Thursday, and aa catch-up call with a buddy and former CEO of Heavy Metal Magazine who I may try to meet up with in Japan – also Thursday.
Speaking of Japan, it’s shaping up to be a fun trip as, in addition to the aforementioned friend, I’ll probably be meeting up with my cousin, an airline pilot, who is stationed in Guam and will be making the short trip over. Akemi has been putting together our itinerary which will include a bevy of new and old favorites including that place where they serve you turmeric pills as an appetizer because they plan on your drinking A LOT.
As I mentioned to longtime blog friend Das in the comments section, Akemi and I are looking to get a friend for Sharky, but only when we get back from Japan. Pug or frenchie. Preferably senior. Preferably special needs. We’ll keep you updated on the search.
It’s nice to be home!
