Thanks Vincent. Certainly not an experience to wish on other people. I haven't seen The Plumber, but we're film appreciators in my home, so I'll keep it in mind to look up. Life in general is slowly settling back to normal, whatever normal may be. Thank you for reading, and for the sympathy. :)

Max is a dog I did know. He was a friend's dog for something like 15 years. An old boy. Sadly, he passed away almost two years ago.

Hugs back at you from Canada!
