"Best Day Ever"

Hi folks - we spent a lazy, mesmerizing day with Alex
and Tasha watching several episodes of PeeWee's
Playhouse from the DVD set Nancy got me for Christmas
- the second item on my wish list behind a new liver.
The kids were completely enchanted.
Alex declared today, pointing to me, that this New
Year's Eve was the ''best day ever...even better than
Christmas Eve. Because of the late Christmas gift I
got - You!''
We've been listening to Tom Petty in the car recently
and three-year old Tasha now demands that
"Wildflowers" be played each time we get in - and
signs along - saying its here favorite song. True
enough, she did want ''Woodie's Roundup'' after it
finished today, but we'll take it. For those who don't
know the hauntingly spiritual song, here are the
lyrics.

Wildflowers
Tom Petty

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, go find a lover
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve the deepest of cover
You belong in that home by and by
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong somewhere close to me
Far away from your trouble and worry
You belong somewhere you feel free
You belong somewhere you feel free

- random notes - down to 173 pounds on departure from
hospital versus 214 normal weight before illness hit.
Strolled around the grounds of hte Shrine of St.
Joseph for exercise in 50 plus degree temperatures
today. Beautiful sunset. Since I was in the hospital I
was inspired each time Nancy and I prayed with Holy
Water from Lourdes in France and a rosary blessed the
Pope to say the Hail Mary in Spanish - which I
remember from high school. When we entered the shrine,
there were at least eight people praying the Hail Mary
aloud in Spanish today and I joined right in. An
interesting sign of something. Looking forward to
shaving tonight!
David
