HOLIDAY IN THE PARK in Postcards 4

Tonight we are off to the Automobile Museum to volunteer at the December Nights madness. All the museums are open, and 20 thousand folks are expected. We will dress warmly and punt.

Today I have to do something about my hair. You wouldn’t believe how bad it is. By Friday the 15th, the day of G’s FORMAL company party, I have to look elegant instead of like an old, comfortable beach bum.

Tomorrow is the Discovery Shop lunch and George can come. I have to make cookies for this. Monday I see my pulmonary surgeon to make sure my graft is still working well. The 6th I see the nutritionist. I get terribly discouraged while trying to make my three diets work…so discouraged that I am gaining weight. Not only is my hair bad, my weight is beyond bad.
