When do you leave for Florida, or have you. I seem to recall you
were flying into Jacksonville, but the news about the fires in that area
isn't good. Waldo is evacuated. Not much happening here. Stifling
heat. I had some trouble with my eye this morning and had to sit waiting
for two hours to get seen, but I was worried about heading into the
weekend, and I didn't have an appointment. Fortunately the
physician gave me free medicine, as he had a sample.
I watched a special on the SciFi channel last night about the X-files.
I'm hoping I can get out of here by 3 and maybe see the 4:00 show, if
the tickets aren't sold out. I don't know how popular it will be
here.
A disrupted morning. I headed in early this morning without eating
or drinking, thinking I'd treat myself to breakfast before work, but
then I noticed my eye didn't look good. It had been hurting last night.
In the sunlight in the car, I could see a white spot on the edge of the
iris, the colored portion of the eye, which, I've learned, is a
"marginal uler." Because of that I called to see a doctor when I
got to work and they brought me right over, but then I sat from 8:00
until 10:00.
Because of that I missed breakfast hour and so had to wait until 11:00
to get anything to eat, and the lunch choices were awful, hotdogs, fried
catfish, pork chops. They always serve a lean hamburger so I had
that. I haven't eaten in the cafeteria in so long, it really didn't
taste all that good.
My plans for the weekend are to catch up on law school. Hopefully
also I will hear from that lawyer in St. Pete. I've heard nothing
more from my sister. I have a feeling it's over. From what
I've learned in law school, unfortunately I don't think I have a leg to
stand on. Without a will, there is only my "word" and my memory of
my mother's conversations on my side. My mother's conversation
would be considered "hearsay" and not admissible. There is no
written proof. However, my sister knows what is true. There
is a chance that she is lying though and making this all up, thinking
I'll go away. I'm pretty set on getting "proof" though. I'm
too poor right now, with law school expenses, to let go of this, and
besides none of it is fair. It seems so strange, I really don't
care if she wants to keep the 250,000, if that's what mother wanted.
But, I think I should have the value of the place that was sold.
Anyway, have a good weekend. Elizabeth
