A couple of years ago Rand bought a great red, white and blue, stars and stripes jacket for himself. When we got home from the trip he discovered that it didn't fit and it has been hanging in the closet ever since. That jacket became Thuan's American Citizenship present with Rand's blessing. He's going to wear it to the swearing in ceremony next Wednesday. How appropriate. Right after the ceremony, Thuan and his wife are driving to San Francisco to get United States passports!
Rand, a friend and I had Happy Hour together tonight. She brought four small bottles of champagne, munchies and we celebrated together! It was such fun. Manny had to break up the party so Rand could go in for dinner.
I made apple muffins for Rand's house today and bought a new flag for the pole on the garage door at his house. The current one is getting pretty ratty. Rand and I will put it up tomorrow.
I haven't heard from the guy from Detroit with the converted Honda Element. I thought he would be here by now. Someone asked about the status of "Mo", if it is a dead issue. Quite the contrary. Jennie, the SLP, is writing the grant to Medicare and Kaiser, which if approved, will pay for 80% of the cost. We have decided to go with the Cadillac version for a variety of reasons, including the fact that Rand will outgrow the VW version too fast. After she finishes the narrative, then we have to go back to the Kaiser SLP and get their evaluations, doctor's signatures, I don't know what all, before the grant can be submitted. Then Medicare and Kaiser have to approve it. All these hoops take time. I don't know when the Caddy will arrive - it could be several weeks or months yet. I'll keep you posted.
Keep Rand close.
Love,
Connie
