There are two women who post as "Kathy B" in town, maybe more. Just as there is apparently another "mark" who rants about GMOs and the folks that worked for companies that developed them. I am not that sanctimonious, self important jerk.
I am a distinct sanctimonious, self important jerk. But I digress.
My Kathy B, my wife of almost 40 years, fractured her hip and left femur on Easter Sunday, a fact which many of you know. La otra Kathy B is an acclaimed artist who so graciously brought my Kathy B. home cooked prepared meals during her convalescence. (It is noteworthy as this story continues that although I have a serious ingrown toenail, la otra Kath B brought me nada).
Today, my Kathy and I were at the beach, and later joined by la otra Kathy B. During a general discussion, I told la otra Kathy B that my Kathy's wheelchair was state of the art, and cost me around 4 mil pesos. Immediately, la otra Kathy insisted on wheeling my Kathy into the surf, telling her that it would do her good. My Kathy was not that thrilled with the idea but allowed la otra Kathy B to wheel her down to the surf. But, la otra Kathy B did not stop in the shallow water but kept wheeling my Kathy deep into the shorebreak until my Kathy fell off of the chair.
La otra Kathy B then wheeled the chair back to the beach with a big grin saying "it's mine, it's mine!!".
I was able, after a considerable struggle, to wrest the wheelchair away from la otra Kathy and bring it home.
During the struggle, I lost site of my Kathy but trust that Pedro will call me when she washes up. If you should, by chance, find her instead, please email me at the white envelope, above, during normal business hours.
Is anyone interested in a slightly used wheelchair?
