		 We need evil to remind us how good the good can be in the world, but why does the evil need to be so bad?

You're asking difficult questions again. 
 
Good for you.

		 11+ hours in the local ER with my BIL because one of his PICC lines had a blood clot in it. Since his condition was not critical, he kept missing the triage cutoff.

		 While also boring, those episodes have the redeeming value of being relatively brief.

He gave his best, just inexperienced. One of those hard life lessons, that he needs to work harder.

		Two funerals this weekend.  The wife of a very good friend (who has Alzheimers) passed away; and, a friend of more than 40 years from down in Decatur also died.   My wife and I made the visitations for both and the funeral for the wife.  Unfortunately, we can't get back down to Decatur today, so I'm glad we made it yesterday.   
What do you say, let's call a moratorium on transitions for a while.
