BUT they found it and are mailing it back to me!!! an actual miracle. I tried to send them thank you bagels from russ and daughters, but they had to refuse (government!) and so the door dash guy made out like a bandit (not really) (delivering to LGA seems like a stress nightmare)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>saw a bunch of plays and musicals in nyc and would be cool to give that experience to everyone (if they don\u2019t hate theater). it makes me think about life and art and meaning in ways I don\u2019t every day. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>also marisa tomei was at our anna christie performance (!) and I didn\u2019t recognize her but I DID think oh man that woman has STYLE. style icon 4 rill. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>my mouth\/ear problems have returned full force, was it the root canal? which I thought had fixed it? I guess it\u2019s back to regimented water drinking, daily neck stretching, occasional acupuncture and massage? (Ok ok doesn\u2019t sound so bad on paper)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>been thinking bunches about my mom and how I could have been better and was talking to this guy whose mom passed away last year and he was like, \u201cyou can\u2019t do assisted living from afar.\u201d and that\u2019s the real truth. But I don\u2019t know how I could have made it work without quitting my job? so just \u2014 there was no good solution. so now \u2014- just a little agony and hoping she knows I did my best.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>my New Year\u2019s resolution this year \u2014 decided to do an actual one, and not the away\/toward list \u2014 is to make actual food once a week. (as opposed to never making anything, like a rat.) anyhow I made this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.purewow.com\/recipes\/garlicky-spinach-chickpea-soup-lemon-pecorino\">soup<\/a> yesterday and it was great. only 51 weeks left!!!!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>bits and bobs:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_s2mail":"yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[1],"class_list":["post-20305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20305"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20305\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20314,"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20305\/revisions\/20314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookbinderlocal455.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
