Tuesday March 9

Disaster!

I'm on my way to see Cissy. I stop at the D Street Post Office to post T's Rough Linen duvet (the one with the buttons) to Singapore and when I get back to the car the battery is flat.

I phone T. She drives over in the Jeep. I open up the hood and put the jumper leads on and the next thing WHAM!!! It's dropped down onto my arm. Ouch! I though I'd cut my arm in two.

It's not broken but the skin is ripped off. T says she san see "fat". Scary. We abandon the Ford pickup and go to Kaiser Emergency.

Oh dear $180. Double ouch. And we pay $1,399.04 a month, that's for both of us. Next to the mortgage, our biggest outgoing.

Kaiser is fast with excellent service. In London it would be free but you'd sit there for 4 hours before anyone could see you.

Filming is off.

We go home - I take a photo.



I decide to shoot Stephen. I email him. Tell him my tale of woe. Send him my photo.

He sends me his.
