TODAY'S EVENT IN SACRAMENTO

It is a bit late but if you are in the Sacramento area, the below event would be interesting and even includes a free lunch!

Yesterday felt like a day away from the recent stresses. Michael went to work all day, I spent some time with my mom then enjoyed an absolutely delightful lunch with Dolores. Three hours! Surely, a new record for us! Last night was the first night I have slept soundly since last weekend. I am feeling stronger this morning. Today, we are meeting British Don for lunch in the city. Beforehand, we will swing by Kaiser to grab the blood sugar testing kit and prepare to see that doctor on Tuesday.
