Yikes!
We have now bought a house…(Leslie and I)
I feel exhilerated and nervy…I kept repeating in my non-restorative half-sleep
“it’s mine! it’s all mine!” until Leslie kicked me…
I will take grandma over there later to help out in the garden. Leslie says she has a “Black Thumb”.

We have also purchased a new bedwhich has the hilarious adverstising campaign of people being identified by their “sleep number”

From the New Yorker:

There’s a joke that the father of an old friend used to tell, about a preacher who warns children, “In Hell there will be wailing and weeping and gnashing of teeth.” “What if you don’t have teeth?” one of the children asks. “Then teeth will be provided,” he says sternly.
