Cell phone conversations

It is early Sunday morning and I just got done talking with my sister Glendon. This is her final day of work this weekend. She will have the week to recover and go back to work next Friday. She has made friends with one of the horse vets named " Dr. Momo" from someplace in Africa. I forget where he lived in Africa. He told her that some of the horse vets were leaving for good. One was going to North Carolina. He told her he has three more years of vet school before he leaves. I let Glendon know that at least she has planted the seeds of friendship. It is a unique experience just being a friend to someone and this connection remains with this person the rest of their lives. Glendon told me the weather was threatening and she did get some rain. I told her how we were spared and the dark clouds just loomed off the coast. We ended the conversation at 5 am. She continued with feeding the horses before taking off for work. She also prepared her meals which included a snack and lunch for the day. Yesterday, I talked with Mrs. Voss, whom I have known for years when we lived back in Oakland, Florida. She talked about attending a funeral of someone fairly young around her oldest son's age who died from lung cancer. The person whom passed away had kids and a husband, plus lots of friends. I just remembered something I forgot to talk Mrs. Voss about. There was another funeral which I didn't attend, but I got to sign in as a guest on the electronic guest book. I thought this was so neat. People like me who moved away from the area could send their thoughts of remembrance to the grieving family. This was a way to show that she was appreciated in the community. Mrs. Voss also talked about her daughter "Jenny", the school librarian, who goes into the classrooms of teachers who don't return the school library books and retrieves them. She also said that sometimes Jenny would leave garbage bags full of library books outside the classrooms to be picked up and returned to the library. I did get to tell Mrs. Voss about seeing the movie "Angels and Demons." I also told her about the graphic killing scenes and we had a short discussion about how kids see everything these days. She got a short chuckle when I told her " I was raised on Andy Griffith." Sad but true, I didn't even know what a Poke man was. The daughter of Mrs. Voss "Jenny" has a birthday on the sixteenth of June. This is the same day as Lillian's birthday. Jenny is one year younger than me. Lillian is like three years older than me. I think I had a nice conversation with Mrs. Voss.On the other hand, Lillian is a big mystery. She kept her cell phone number and answers" Lillian Tanzer" on the message. I left a short message and I am sure it probably went unanswered. I don't see Lillian on the instant messages anymore and she doesn't answer the e-mails I sent. I did leave a short message on my friend's cell phone " Dee" she told me in an e-mail she would call me on Sunday to catch up on what is going on.
