After running around for the last few days like a chicken with its head cut off trying get everything done, I am finally prepared to leave at 10 tomorrow morning-Air Canada to Toronto and a connecting flight onward to London.  Travel is much trickier than it used to be with the added responsibilities of taking care of my parents, which now includes handling all of their business. The headless chicken has been running a lot to deal with that.  But for now things are going about as well as can be expected, given their situation.  

Things in Lebanon are looking relatively calm and I am hoping it will remain so.  Too late to worry any more about it now!
