Final Things


What more perfect occupation for a dreary November day with snow in the offing than updating our folder of Important Information for our survivors?

I put this compilation together about seven years ago and, unsurprisingly, a good bit of the important info has changed or is no longer important. 

All this in hopes that it won't be needed for a good while and that I'll need to update it at some time down the road.

The relevance was driven home by an email to let me know that an old and dear friend on the other side of the country is nearing her end, gracefully and gallantly as was always her wont. 

Compounding the somber mood is that I'm currently listening to Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go--beautifully written and read but not exactly cheerful.

We're none of us getting out of this alive

Sue has made a folder, and we update it yearly as necessary.
