Warm Wuinter's Garden
““Ellen, I should’ve called.”
“Don’t be silly, Bett. You’re always welcome.
Come in. How are you? It’s been too long. How were the holidays?”
As Bett followed Ellen down a dark blue and rich red oriental runner into a parlor with brown and gold-colored upholstered Windsor back chairs and pie crust tables she said, “The holidays were fine. At least until this banking crisis began. How have you been?”
“My pipes are a little noisy, but other than that things are going along pretty well. I’m schedul...ed to go back in in a couple of weeks to see how well the healing has gone. If it has made as much progress as they hope, then, they’ll set a date for the reversal. Pull the bag. Re-stitch the bowel. Send me on my merry way. No more gurgling. ‘In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.’ Isaiah. Thanks you, Isaiah. Looking forward to it.
“How’s Neil been doing?”
“He’s been wearing himself out. I’ve never seen him work this hard, not when he was young, not even a couple of years ago when times were so good, during the real estate boom.MoreLess
