I have a new cot today, June 2, 2023. It took HOURS to take the old one apart, however, it was worth the effort.
Maybe if I sleep more comfortably, I will not be so grumpy
I also sleep in my zero gravity chair in the picture, it is really helpful to release my body from the usual pressures.

Joyce Nicastro Jacobs, daughter of John Nicastro, my maternal grandmother's brother, and Mary Senegal
My cousin Joyce and I were about the same age. When we were about 12, I saw her walking down the hill toward my parent's home. She was crying. I went out to meet her. She had been with an elderly woman when the woman died just a few minutes before. Joyce said that she saw a light go from the woman's body up through the ceiling while they were alone.

Peter D’Argenzio, 86, of Port Saint Lucie, FL, died on March 6, 2021. Peter was born and raised in Arnold, PA to Joseph and Berdine (Chipoletti) D’Argenzio. He attended Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where he studied music. After graduating, he taught music in public school for five years before becoming a sales representative for Apeco and later for Jostens, in the corporate recognition division. He had a very successful career, spanning 37 years and won many awards. Some of his more famous clients included the Pittsburgh Pirates, Steelers and Penguins. He retired from Jostens in February 2002.
All through his career he continued to be active in music. He played trombone professionally in the Pittsburgh area for many of the acts that came into town, including Sammy Davis, Jr., Frank Sinatra, Gladys Night, the Supremes, the Civic Light Operas and traveling Broadway shows. He was also head of a Dixieland band at Three Rivers Stadium for the Pittsburgh Pirates. He continued actively playing in many groups in the Boca Raton and West Palm Beach, Florida area throughout his retirement years.
Peter was predeceased by his wife, Sandy and survived by his five daughters, Debbie, Diane, Lisa, Stephanie and Kara from his first wife, Judy.
I can actually find traits in my parents that relate to their lives, addictions and skills! Near Florence is the city Siena https://www.discovertuscany.com/siena/palio-siena.html where one of the first known horse races ever started.
'...The Palio horse race has its origins in the distant past, with historical records indicating horse races in Siena already taking place in the 6th century.' My father was addicted to betting the horses for as long as I knew him, almost 70 years!

Goddess
i did not know
my dad's mother
very well,
that substantial
full blooded italian
woman whose
maiden name was
Cavaliere
yet she consumed
my afternoon at the lake
her death consumed
me
and i wondered,
if the sunlight
on the water
of Greenlake
was her spirit,
the glare, the warmth,
the light--
was it her?
