Thank yous

I'm finally sending a thank you note to "Father" Ed Flahavan for doing such a nice job with my aunt Sister Marian's memorial service last April (as in 2012). He and his wife really made it a nice event. I felt kind of bad, because I just wasn't that close to her. She didn't play a big role in my life. Still, these people are pretty cool.

There. Now I have it if I ever need it again.

My Confusion

I find that I mix things up more and more these days. A harbinger of my old age? Or careless attention? Either way, it's frustrating when I realize I've been "convinced" of something that's entirely untrue. For years, I've identified author Jude Devereaux as a friend of my dear Lisa Middag. Yet I just found a note (in my own writing) that says "Judith Ivory" (underlining is from note) with this info:

"(intelligent romance) NOT Jude Devereaux"

Apparently, I've made this mistake more than once. Poor Lisa . . . she must think I'm completely senile! I was so impressed when she showed me a book where she was listed in the dedication / acknowledgements (I don't remember which, naturally). Sigh. I'm not even that old!

Here's more info on the correct author: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_Ivory
