Today's Goodwill Shopping Day. I've decided to go to the Seattle one instead of the marginally close Redmond one. Seattle's is bigger and familiar. Most of my list is kitchen stuff. But I'd be happy if I found another doll hair sweater.

The store does not open until 9 and it's 30 minutes from here but... work traffic. But, what the heck. I'll just turn on my audiobook and inch along if that's what happens. I want to get there and get home.

Ok so here's a bit of magical serendipity. The quote for the blinds just came in. They are expensive but I knew they would be but at least this time I know exactly what I wanted and what will be installed and how they will work and have details on the warranty. So I'm ok with the OMG amount. I signed the contract and paid the bill.

And then, 5 minutes later... I'm not kidding... 5 minutes later. I got an email from USPS with what's coming in the mail today and there... two weeks ahead of when they said it would be... is the check from the IRS for my 2023 amended return!! The amount of that refund is plenty enough to cover the shades! The timing of both is just jarring and delightful.

Wow.

One of my pet peeves (and I have many such pets) is sales people who assume my interest in cost. Without my asking price, they tell me it will be cheaper than x or this is the lowest price ever or some price thing. Yesterday's guy did not mention cost or price once. I didn't ask and he didn't even hint at cost or relative pricing. I was so impressed. If I ask, great, let's talk money. BUT if I don't ask, then clearly there are other things more important to me, and let's talk about those instead. He's one of the few people I've ever run into who 'got' that. And he also did not mention that he'd be giving me a 20% discount because I mentioned that Christian referred me. This is standard practice and I suspect it's built into the pricing but I love that he never mentioned it once.

Another pet peeve - a in a completely different part of the pet farm than the above - is baseball players who don't understand calendars and can't count 9 months. Players now get days off when their wife gives birth. Even if it's in the middle of a critical time of the season or a critical series. They have a good 6 months when they are NOT on duty to play pennant counting baseball. Any time during those 6 months is perfect for baby having time off. The 6 months they are playing is never perfect. Babies take 9 months to make. DO THE FUCKING MATH. But, they don't. So they leave their team in the lurch and then, miss every birthday ever after.

This is not a pet peeve shared by many. In fact, I've never even ever heard of anyone mentioning it but some guy came close this week. His article I Know What You Did Last Summer: When Ballplayers Make Babies is centered around the babies conceived during the all star break. He's got some fun data and fun graphs. And at least he gets the math.

Ok. I think I'll get dressed and head on out.

We got Dana settled at the new place. It is located in part of a smallish hospital. I've been a patient there (hip number one) but she has never so they were creating an entire medical record for her. This is a med system different from the one we normally use. Our usual one does not have a local in patient rehab facility. And, of course, there is no sharing of records. If congress were going to do something useful that would be it. Mandate that med groups share med histories with each other. Everything we do with this one will disappear (or would without me) from record when we return to our normal system. If there were only somewhere in the world with oh, I don't know, a National Health System. Why doesn't someone invent that?

Anyway, back to reality. She got there OK in a transport and I met her there an hour or so later. This place is MUCH closer and easier to get to so I don't mind shuttling back and forth. They don't allow visitors until 3PM so there is no inteference with PT. That is a good idea, I think.

I managed to break into her record at the new place and have their app installed so I can track what is going on. Communication is the last thing that health systems worry about. Especially communication with the caregiver. I went to the web site to see if I could find a contact, a case worker kind of thing, but there is no phone number at all on the entire system's web site. Zero. They do not give a way to contact them. Amazing.

What I did find, buried in her online record was:

DC Plan: Return home with spouse. Patient is Ind at baseline, now with ongoing gait deficits r/t periprosthetic hip fracture. Patient will benefit from an intense rehab program with physician oversight, 24 hr rehab nursing, pain and medication management, precaution education, as well as a comprehensive inpatient therapy program including three hours of skilled therapy intervention 5/7 days in order to return to prior setting safely at a reduced risk for medical complication, falls, and hospital readmissions.

She is willing and able to participate in 3 hours therapy/day, 5 days/week and is expected to make sustainable, functional gains.

So early next week. I'm thinking I need to get the bed problem solved, a fait accompli, before she comes home.

I'm going to try to take Toby to see her today when we visit. She should be able to roll out in a chair and meet him. He has been really sad to be without her and she would get a huge mental boost from having him in her lap for a bit.

I was scheduled for pickleball this morning and we got rained out. I just signed up for a 10:30 group. I really need to get outside and run around and have a couple of hours not thinking about anything. And I can stop by the Mattress place on my way back.

This morning was bordering on depression. It is a strange feeling to be in the house by myself (ok, me, Toby and Zoe) for any more than a couple of days. I'm fairly sure that I'd adjust over time but for the moment I've lost the anchor. And I've got four days of meals for two staring me in the face. The food box came yesterday. On the bright side it means I won't live on cereal like I normally would do. But I've got to cook it all up and freeze the portions so it doesn't go to waste. And decide whether to cancel the one coming next week or roll the dice that Dana will be back.

And the weird thing about all of this is the cost of the in hospital to us will be zero. I can't imagine going through this and having to have all the debt involved. It would be crushing.

something happened today that i wanted to share and now i don't remember what it was. it's spring? but you knew that. i don't have an apartment yet, but you knew that too. i do however have a lot of leftover passover food. i have an entire unopened box of egg matzo. i should buy chocolate chips and make matzo crack.

we got new desk chairs at work and they are COM. FY. my back feels so supported.

My heart of silk
is filled with lights,
with lost bells,
with lilies and bees.
I will go very far,
farther than those hills,
farther than the seas,
close to the stars

A few weeks ago, they reswizzled our security situation at the front door. They moved the office and the sign in post and also moved the whole thing to new software. Today was the first time I saw it in action. The old stuff was slow and clunky and slow and clunky. The new stuff is swift. And it remembers. The shade guy was here once before - I gather a year or two ago - but it remembered him which made the already fast process faster.

I got both a text and an email with his photo the minute he signed in and he got a visitor badge. One process slick as a whistle.

He's a really nice guy and understood what I wanted and what I didn't want immediately. He's got the goods. Roller shades, wifi enabled to an app and to Google Home or Echo. Rechargeable batteries with a dongle I can reach easily. (My ohsoexpensive shades in the condo required AA batteries. 84 of them - about every 9 months and a royal PIA to change out.)

3 to 5 weeks but, he allowed as how it will probably be closer to the 3 week part of that since apparently, people aren't buying big right now... snerk snerk.

He had way too many options but I picked a color close to the window trim and a texture that I hope Julio will have no interest in. I asked for one shade for the three paneled window and one for the door. He was not sure whether they would do a single for the window because it's so wide. Fingers crossed.

He's going to send me a quote. I can sign electronically and pay up and he'll get it going.

He was a very nice guy and I'm happy to be doing biz with him.

Oh, his measuring tool was a laser and he said he had learned how to be very careful using it in cat households. Julio and Biggie were way too busy investigating his cases to see it but he was doing all of his measuring with a cat toy. He said that early on, he was measuring in a house full of cats and inadvertently had them crashing into China and knocking over a book case while he was trying to get measurements.

susandennis

I got home from errands and there were no cats to be seen. Biggie has taken to hanging in the bathroom these days. There's a very large towel that hangs in there and often he pulls it down. I finally got a clue as to why just now when I went in to pee. He doesn't mean to pull it down, just down enough for a cat tent!

Julio has yet to be seen but he has lots of hiding places and he'll be out in a min. Biggie will stay in his hidey hole for hours on end. Julio stays 5 mins or less.

Errands all done. Lunch ordered for pickup. Dinner ordered for pickup. I'll toe soak again after lunch.

So far, the day is ok dokey.

Meet Axel:

Axel is a fairly new to the ranch dog. Not sure about the back story but he is blind and VERY sweet. And has a long snout:

And this Shadow in December of 2021:

She was maybe the first dog I walked at the Ranch and one of the originals.

This is Shadow today:

She's not moving as fast but still looks good. She has a full time foster so we seldom see her. When her foster family goes on trips or something similar they bring her by for a few days. I was fortunate to get to walk her.

Last Wednesday, my big toe started bleeding from a split on the side of it. I don't remember hitting it nor did it hurt. I put a bandaid on it and all was good. Yesterday the bandaid was tired of being on it so I took it off and everything looked fine. This morning I woke up and that toe was one pissed off toe. It's not mad at the joint so I don't think it's gout. The only visual change is that it's red. But only a little. It does hurt when you press on it and it's not too happy about walking. Crocs help.

Dr. Google says soak in Epsom salt for 15 minutes 3 times a day. soak 1 is now halfway done. Dr. Google also recommends anti fungal cream which I actually have on hand. So. hopefully, I can nip this in the bud. I do not want toe issues.

Playing volleyball was fine because my swim shoes have lots of toe room.

I do think I'm going out this morning. Amazon returns and a couple of things at Safeway. Mainly tortillas. The shades guy comes at 2.

I have two small ottomans in the bedroom both of which have storage. They have held stuff I rarely need. The top shelf of my closet holds blankets and quilts. Yesterday I swapped everything so that my blankets and quilts are now far more easy to get to as is my iron. I've now lived here a year and a half. Maybe in another year and a half, I'll have it organized right!

Turns out Dana fractured her Greater trochanter:

right next to the hip joint. It is a combination of osteoporosis and a bad luck kind of slow motion fall. She never even hit anything but there is a muscle that I'm guessing just pulled the bone apart a bit.

The upshot is they are moving her to an inpatient rehab facility connected to a hospital in Georgetown. Not far and a place we've spent time in during the years we've lived here so not at all an intimidating place or a too big one.

But it is another step into the morrass of senior living, one of those things that happens to old people.

The really bright side is she will get lots of information and encouragement. She really needs to have a personal trainer, someone to push her like a physical therapist would but one that is paid by us directly and has long term interaction. Of course, so do I.

I went bed shopping yesterday and figured out what we're going to do. Our bed needs to be lower so I'll replace the box bottom of the bed with an adjustable platform. Keep our mattress for now but the platforms can be adjusted to the height you want so it will make her life much easier. Our head and foot and frame of the bed stays the same. It is actually a minimal change for a huge gain. I'd have done it long ago but it seemed like a huge and expensive change neither of which is true.

The store I got this info from was the same one we got our current mattress from and they were and are wonderful. Both times we got a non commissioned sales guy who had all the info and was happy to have us buy what WE wanted, not what he wanted us to get. So nice.

I'm going to get osme lunch and maybe rest a bit then go to see her. Now she's not coming home right now, things are all different. Adjustments will be made.

I only wish I could explain it to Toby who sits on his chair looking for his mom.

After it warms up today I'm planning to let the chicks out into their run. I have a baby monitor inside their house and the speaker for it is in my studio room (where I write here) so I am listening to them cheep right now.

The one thing that I have to do today is drive Dave back from his eye appointment in Meadville in the afternoon. Shots in both eyes today. I have a couple things I should do. The printer has quit communication with anything outside of itself (it can still copy and print) and I need to figure that out. Blaa. And the other thing I'd like to bring myself to do is transfer some cassette tapes to digital. Three tapes of my dad telling his stories (and from the writing on one there should be mom's voice on it too) and a tape of John reading a speech he wrote to give at church and another of him practicing German. I think listening to them will make me sad so I've been avoiding it. After I get the tapes loaded into my computer I'm going to copy them to a number of thumbdrives and give them away to family members. I got the equipment to do it a couple weeks ago but have been procrastinating.

first, rip, pope francis. i always kinda liked him and thought he was reasonably progressive, for a pope. he legitimately always seemed like a genuinely decent guy.

second, pete hegseth was caught sharing classified military information in yet another signal chat, this time with his wife and his brother (among other people). because he is a dumbass who has no idea how to do his job. and! kristi noem, the head of homeland security, had her purse stolen at a restaurant - very secure there, ms noem - and said purse had inside it such things as her apartment keys (makes sense), her makeup bag (also makes sense), her passport (could conceivably make sense), and, er, $3000. in cash. which seems like the kind of money you carry around if you want to make a big purchase that you don't want anyone to be able to track. my question is: how did someone get close enough to her purse to steal it? she has secret service with her. we really are living in the stupidest timeline, seriously.

in happier news, i had today off on account of patriots day, which is marathon monday and also celebrates the battle of lexington which kicked off the revolutionary war. (reenactors gather on lexington green at ass o'clock in the morning to reenact the battle which i think is both really cool and kinda nuts.) the only states that celebrate are mass and maine. and it was mostly a nice day, even! i got a late start (partly because

tamalinn called me before i could bestir myself out of the house, and then i had to tell her about sinners and try to figure out what besides black panther michael b jordan was in that she might have seen) and went to the diesel and had breakfast for lunch and wrote a bunch, most of it for a random thing that i don't know what to do with. i had to exorcise a scene out of my head, i guess. but it was productive! which is always good.

Yesterday it was still January and I drove home
and the roads were wet and the fields were wet
and a palette knife

had spread a slab of dark blue forestry across the hill.
A splashed white van appeared from a side road
then turned off and I drove on into the drab morning

which was mudded and plain and there was a kind of weary happiness
that nothing was trying to be anything much and nothing
was being suggested. I don’t know how else to explain

the calm of this grey wetness with hardly a glimmer of light or life,
only my car tyres swishing the lying water,
and the crows balanced and rocking on the windy lines.

Today felt like a Sunday. Dave and I drove Hazel back to Pittsburgh. The sky and clouds were really something. Lots of rain showers going on, rain clouds, dark clouds, pink and yellow clouds, thin clouds and wispy, fast moving clouds, clouds with holes in them, blue skies, sun rays, orange clouds, hillside trees with orange tops as the sun went down.

IMG_20250419_180225910[1].jpg

I took this picture while I was waiting for Hazel to come out of her house on Saturday. You can't tell by the picture but the hill is very steep. I keep my foot hard on the brake the whole time I sit there (if I have the engine going) and put the emergency brake on too. The reason I took the picture though was to show the neighborhood deer. She is right in the very center of the picture. I see her on that corner every time I pick Hazel up. There is a squirrel feeder right near the street sign and I suppose she is checking regularly to see if any kernels of corn have fallen. Hazel sees her everyday too when she walks to the bus stop.

IMG_20250419_180235297[1].jpg

Zoomed in. My cell phone camera is poor at this.

IMG_20250421_133124312[1].jpg

Here's a picture of the new chicks. I'll get better pictures later but this at least shows them. The one in the foreground is the Rustic Rock. The most outgoing of them all. As soon as you open the door she's pecking on you and trying to get past you to get out. To the left in the foreground is the Easter Egger. She has puffy cheek feathers and will lay green eggs. She likes to check me out too when I open the door. The black one in the back is a Black Sex Link. She is very shy. The one in the very upper left is a Rhode Island Red. She's a shy one too. I'm thinking that tomorrow I'll let them out into their run and I'll be able to get better pictures then. I'm thinking of names for them. That is a fun part of pet ownership. Coming up with names that will match to their personalities or their looks.

Another day when art-a-day ended up being pretty simple. Right now, today, I'm looking forward to this daily art project to be over. But I'm committing myself to finish the book. That will take me 52 more days. I'll be done on June 12. Less than 2 months away. It doesn't seem as long when I think of months instead of days.

I'm watching two series on prime right now, alternating between them and trying to get them to last as long as I can: "Damned" and "Getting On". They are both similar and have Jo Brand in them. I love her.

I just bought a wheelchair from Amazon. Watching Dana walk across the house to get to the car was not as painful for me as it was for her but nearly so. We intend to live here as long as we can and some equipment to facilitate that is just part of the bargain.

I'll find a place to hang it in the garage where it is readily available.

So we now have a wheelchair, a walker, a rolling walker (NOT something I would ever have again or recommend), crutches and half a dozen canes. We are a well equipped army of two.

BTW, there is nothing better than a SmartCar if you are marginally mobile. The walker fits in the back and the seats are the perfect height. Damn kruats are good. I only wish they had kept making them. An electric one would totally kick ass.

I love raw pie crust. Yeah, I know, weird. They sell them all rolled up into log shapes at the grocery. I take a long and chop it up into one inch pieces and put it in a plastic container in the fridge and, when I need a snack, I grab one. I'm sure I'm not the only one. But maybe I am.

I went down to get brunch from the buffet line yesterday and the line was way way way too long and not moving fast so no thanks. I had a lovely day up here. Knitting and watching TV.

I was not overly sleepy when I went to bed but had no problem drifting off. A little after 9. I did not wake up again until 5:30 and then, after a pee, went back to sleep for another hour and a half. 95 on my bed's sleep scale.

John, who is 88, says everyone dies at 88. Clearly not everyone but he sure nailed the pope. John turns 89 in a few weeks so he feels like he'll be in the clear.

I have another Amazon return but also a week to return it so probably won't be going today. Tomorrow the shades guy comes. He's a recommendation from my designer friend and has done shades here at Timber Ridge but weirdly, I cannot find any details about his shades. Good yelp,etc reviews on his service but nothing on the shades. I want wifi connected shades. And I'm really not interested in shades that aren't. I could call him and get more details but I think I'll just let him come out and 'sell' me. Wednesday I think I might go to Goodwill. I might go to the one in Bellevue as opposed to my old stomping grounds in Seattle.

Back when air fryers were a brand spanking new thing, I got one. It was gynormous and loud and had fiddly parts. And fun to play with but soon it broke. The plastic bit that held the basket in broke off. But, by then, they had toaster ovens that also did air frying. Ok. So I got one of those and have had variations of those ever since. Til now. My latest is small because my needs are small and my space is small. But it's honestly too small to really keep clean and has other issues. So I put it away. And bought a straight forward, simple air fryer. And I love it. This one is way smaller overall than my first one with a larger basket! And it is so simple to just toss the basket into the dishwasher. At some point I may get the toaster oven out again but maybe not.

Yesterday was mini monsters day but today it's back to dolls.

The direction of my day today changed yesterday morning but it too a while to develop. While getting on the bed she stepped weirdly on the step to get up and kind of twisted while her good leg collapsed under her. I was there but only saw the aftermath. She was in a lot of pain that only got worse during the day until she could not even walk at all but had to kind of drag her right leg while walking.

We called the on call nurse who called the on call doctor who sent us to the hospital. We went back to where she had the surgery and went in through a fortunately fairly quiet emergency room. Leaving the house took nearly an hour mostly watching Dana struggle to walk across the house to the car. We don't have a wheelchair and I'm now considering the utility in having one. They don't cost too much. Storage is an issue but we'll deal with it. Sure would have been good to have it last night.

The short version is she got a room and a radiologist took a picture and the on call orthopedist said it looked like she had a minor fracture. We were kind of hoping her hip joint was just unseated and needed to be put back. Bad as that sounds it is a quick process. It looks like her osteoporosis is catching up with her and has either cracked or chipped bone around her hip.

I had already cancelled everything for today and cancelled the chick pick up for tomorrow. We got her on the good pain meds and I finally left around 2:30 getting back here and finally in bed about 4AM.

Not sure what I am doing but I'll likely head over to the hospital after taking the dogs on a walk. Poor Toby doesn't know what is happening, only that his mom isn't here.

Dana did say they took a CT today already so I'm sure the docs are trying to figure out if they can avoid repeat surgery. Fingers crossed. No idea when she's going to come back. I would think tomorrow at the earliest.

I did not realise it was Easter weekend last week, so I got a pleasant surprise of a long weekend. In Macau we get Good Friday off, but of course my Mom's brain is still in her civil servant and Portuguese rule era and kept asking me why I'm not off on Easter Monday. Because it's not a mandated public holiday.

"But banks are closed!" she counters.

"And I do not work in a bank."

For the record, banks in Macau are closed because it's a public holiday in Hong Kong, and Macau banks are reliant on Hong Kong banks.

Did I get much done over the long weekend? Not much. Sorted out some ebooks into my Kobo, got some running done, and of course worked over the holidays from home when needed. Such is life, and I'm happy with it.

It's mid-April already so that means my upcoming trip to Tokyo is fast approaching. I forgot to book the Pokemon cafe thing in Tokyo. I mean, I remembered to try the day before (they have a book 30 days in advance thing) and I tried their system just to see how it works, and in 6 minutes, it was fully. booked. No problem, that was trial day only. The next day (the day I really meant to book), ... I forgot about it LOL.

I've read that people would go there on-day and try their luck for ad hoc cancellations, but I don't really do that. If it's a walk in type of restaurant, I'd walk in. If it's a reservation only type of place, I'd only go if I had a reservation. I won't ever try my luck with on day cancellations.

That said, that would make my schedule more flexible. I might move things around as I planned.

Then end of May I'm going to Singapore again. It's about time someone goes check the condition of that office we have. It's all above board and proper, I've done all my paperwork already, besides, I'm cheap when I travel, even when it's a work travel, I guess no one complains when I'm the one doing the traveling.

No trip in June anymore, then July and August... the parents are flying to Europe again. So, FINALLY, I can cook for myself, set my own schedule, and do whatever I want. The only thing is I will have to do the same thing I always do when they're traveling: Take Fridays off so someone is home to check on the maid.

September will probably be no trip, there's a possibility my Sis will be accompanying my aunt and cousin to Portugal because of reasons. October I have my Taiwan half marathon thing, and December I have my Tokyo Kawaguchi Lake run (a 17km segment under the Fuji Marathon). There's some not-yet serious planning on a November trip to Qingdao China.

happy easter to them what celebrate, and to them what don't a lovely and restful sunday. today was beautiful like yesterday but a tch colder so after zoom with the fam (during which my sister defended the sixteen comic book boxes under my bed when my mom wondered why i didn't go through them and get rid of some of them), grocery store (which was not crowded because easter), and lunch (i sat on the front porch for like twenty minutes and then went inside because my feet were cold), i put on shoes and a jacket and went Out. and sat in the sun (sort of) and read my book and drank my iced chai and tried vainly to ignore the fact that i should have worn more clothes. but it was SO NICE. i mean, it's spring.

and then i came home and read some more and made dinner (as passover is now over i can eat bread but instead i had, uh, matzo brei which is basically scrambed eggs with farfel) (ok and also a red bean bread i got at h-mart) (i was going to go out for dinner with my sister but did i mention it's easter? and almost everything is closed) and watched an episode of andor s1 with the confab discord in preparation for s2 which starts on TUESDAY. we haven't caught up yet. if you haven't seen andor i highly recommend it. it's kind of harsh but really well done and diego luna is exceptionally cute. also it has stellan skarsgard and he's always worth watching.

On the edge of another blue world
the lake looms like salvation. Over
coffee, my mom and tía speak excitedly

about the vibrant villages along the shore,
how you can only get there by boat
across the lake’s beautiful depths, how

the volcanos stand piously over the water,
how each village is named for one of the twelve
apostles. I ask, with complete sincerity,

if that means one is named for Judas.
The waitress brings our food. My mom
and tía eat slowly with side-eyes and silence.

Last night, a big gust of wind knocked the nest out of the tree at the National Conservation Training Center, which has given us eaglecam views of that nest, and ones before it, for years. This year we'd been amazed to have 3 eggs hatch, and 3 eaglets growing, and getting a lot of fish brought to them, and even while the NCTC and US Fish & Wildlife workers and institutions are threatened, there was this bit of hope, and joy, in those 3 babies.

One of the constancies of nature is, however, death, and all 3 baby eagles died from the 90' fall.

The NCTC folks left the bodies there long enough to be sure both eagle parents had seen. The parents are clearly stressed, they report, but alive and otherwise seem well.

It breaks my heart. As do the fans of the webcam are breaking my heart, in the chat at the eaglecam channel. Go there at your own risk.

But next year.... well, maybe there's next year. Usually there's next year, and for a long time now there's been next year.

In baseball they say "There's always next year," but it does depend on whether we take care of the game. Famously in the Star Trek future, baseball is no more.

For a lot of things, there's only next year if we make it happen.

I acquire tools as I make things. The last coop I made I ended up selling. The sale covered the cost of materials and a portable radial arm saw. Totally worth it.

A few minutes ago I went outside to put up a bit of chicken wire on the coop. After about five staples I stopped. No longer is a manual staple gun useful. In a pinch and at the right angle I can use it but for $50 I can get a battery powered one that also is a light duty nail gun. SOLD!

So I'm putting off the chicken wire until my new gun gets here.

A little Tim the Toom Man grunt escaped my lips as I hit the cart button.
