Welcome to the new look
Wave Without A Shore
It’s a work in progress but everything should work now
Now the real work of writing starts…
Actual words. The outline is as conflated as it's likely to get for now, or until more inspiration strikes. It's time to start writing the story. I'll make a 'safety' copy of the actual conflated outline, and put it away. I'll start with chapter 1 and actually consume...
Redo: the leak is still leaking…
It was, we're pretty sure, the grab bar. The minute I used the shower this morning---there went the leak. We rip out several more feet of tile, and spent our day looking for something we hadn't planned to deal with for another year: the Bathroom Color Scheme. We love...
We found the leak in the bathroom…
I'd told Jane that side wall was bowing. Turns out it wasn't the faucets or pipe, after we cut a 4' x 2' hole in Jane's closet to find out. It was the inbuilt metal soapdish, and we now have a 3'x1' hole in the tile/wallboard above the tub rim. Sigh. The wallboard...
New keyboard on its way: at 1pm today!
I will be so relieved. This computer, vintage 2004, is a little slower (much!) than the new one, not to mention having some grievous issues with its pointer, which occasionally opens things you not only don't intend, but can't even figure out what Microsoft nuisance...
This poor backup laptop…
I am remembering in detail the reasons I decided I had to get a new computer. It's amazingly iffy. It can't load some internet pages, for reasons I cannot parse, but since my new computer will be fixed soon, not worth chasing down...it works as a workhorse in an...

Another day, and this one mostly digging holes in mud and planting stuff.
Jane's beautiful little espaliered apple tree is in: it looks like one of Tolkien's elvish trees, three branches on a side, and centered on the back (barn red) fence. It has a Gravenstein graft, a Fuji, a Gala, Yellow Delicious, Yellow Transparent, and a Red...
going to drop below freezing tonight—rats!
We have ton-o' new plants. Of course. Jane worked outside from dawn to dusk, and I popped out now and again to assist, but I couldn't take that icy wind. She came back in after building 50' of sidewalk (40' to go) base (it will be gravel, lined with basalt and rimmed...
Passing of another friend…
Some of you knew him as Richard. He did the beautiful rendition of Norway as his avatar, and had many, many others of my ships in graphic representation---a talented artist, and a very welcome member here on Wave. He passed away unexpectedly this last week.

...sidebar. I promise it really IS left, this time. Takes some doing to get through the hoops to comment, but drop over there and wave hello. He's using Blogger software, which wants you to set up a Google profile, which isn't a terribly bad thing. Spam shouldn't...
