Sam's in Atlanta for the week, but he continues to take good care of me.
I have a hard time getting up in the morning, so he's usually the one waking me up and asking me what kind of tea I want, and being really patient as I groggily stumble around the apartment. Since he's been gone, he's called every morning at the appropriate time to see that I'm up. So far I have been, for about five minutes, but it's nice to know I have a safety net.
AND, I picked up the car today, thanks to a nicely coordinated effort by Sam. Saturday, I was, inexplicably, in a foul humor and being quite the pill, while he was arranging for a new rental car, as our insurance-paid rental car had reached its expiration date. Well, we could have kept it, but we didn't want to pay that rate, if it was coming directly out of our pocket. Sam found a cheap rental place within walking distance of the shop where Nelly was being fixed, and reserved a rental until midday today, when the car was to be ready. A well-oiled agenda - it all went smoothly.
Thanks, pal!

Shokufeh, your husband is one of the sweetest men on this earth!! We had such a great time with him at dinner and then, he went on to check out a car that Tina and Bo were thinking of buying... He helped out so much! I hope we didn't ware him out... This was the first time that we hung out, on our own.... but I felt like we had been friends for years and years.... Only thing missing was you... we really missed you
cheers,
Roya
