Thank you, andromeda,

You are a dear. Thank you for your kindness. And yes, thank you for the reminder.

Actually my best friend & neighbor, also widowed, lives just a mile up the Bay from me here.
We've been touching base with one another at least every other day for a couple years now.
We each have keys to one another's home.
Neither of us are either "infirm or feeble", thus tend to be active outdoors a lot when the seasons here allow.
So it is sometimes easy to assume that the other is simply busy --- or can't locate our cellphone! --- & hasn't been able to return a phone call for a day.

You serve as a reminder that we need to set up some daily check-in/report-in system.

Thank you again, Dear!
