Hi Susan:

Just wanted to give you a little update on how things are going. It seems like forever but it has only been just a little over two weeks since I first talked to Jon. He used to own a bike shop and I am cycling so he came over on Thursday after we met on Tues and tuned up my bike for a 65 mile ride that I was doing on Sat. Then he was over last night to work on my dryer, he has a dryer vent repair and installing company and just wanted to do it right and take out the old coil style tube and put in a smooth one that is safer and works more efficiently.

It is so hard to know what to do, we have talked a lot about it and his son, 13 wants to see me, even that first day. Jon’s mom passed away about 11 years ago, so he was asking me what they should call me. I just decided to let the kids call me what they were comfortable with.

We both say that there are no books out there on this to learn from and although he was going to look for me, with me finding him it did not give him a chance to be prepared.

They have plans to be away on Thanksgiving and I was going to visit my friend that lives in San Jose so we are keeping with that schedule. I guess it is just one day at a time.


Thanks for everything, and I wish you all a very happy holiday season.
