Which would indicate that my calendar file was there at that time.

I don't remember seeing any error messages at that time.

*BUT*, I did remember another piece of the puzzle.  I had an appointment
scheduled for 1/3 at 14:00.  I also had an alarm set for 1 week before.
 It went off on Monday at 14:00.  At that time, I set a 1 day snooze for
it.  Yesterday at 14:00, it went off again.  I decided at that time to
set another 1 day snooze.  That's the last time I remember doing
anything with the calendar.  [FWIW, I have 4 other calendars set up in
Lightning, and they are all fine, including a Google Calendar.]  But,
yes, I am missing the calendar which held the appointment I was snoozing.

Thanks for the quick lesson.
