Wave Without A Shore
It’s a work in progress but everything should work now
Well, poor Hank may have broken his wrist in that collision…
He hit the wall before he slid on down and hit me, and the collision started apparently by clipping the wall with his skate, meeting an open doorway and then sliding on down the barrier into me. We knew he'd hurt his wrist, but he was flexing it okay---but after a...
Back to the ice…wish us luck. And luck to Joe…
We will report how it went, and we hope Joe will when he can.
So what are you going to do this winter?
We're headed back to the rink soon: we could have skated through the summer, but there was so much work we needed to do, and of course personal events intervened---so we hope to get back onto the ice without cracking our skulls or anything else essential. We're still...
Cold. I tell you, cold. And 93,932 words.
We had a real arctic blast come down: leaves are still green, and it hit 19 last night, and will go lower tonight. As Jane says in her post, (with pix), we shut down the pump for the pond, for one thing to let the sunwarmed shallow water get to the depths, where the...
We have anti-raccoon measures in place…
The scenario: a riot between foxes and coyotes was met with pepper spray and precipitated a urological crisis... Which is the way a bloodhound would read the neighborhood of our pond, between fits of sneezing. I used 2 products: Havaheart pepper compound, which smells...
Jane's been on the roof again…

Nearly lost the new Foreigner book…
I told you the ac adapter burned out last week. I was using the alternate one, the oldest, pending the arrival of the new one from Dell. It arrived. I waited until evening, when I like to use my computer in the living room, and plugged in there. Immediately--- The...
Life in Spokane…
Mr. Lector, back in the institution, has now gotten a phone and called the news station. He assures everyone he meant no harm, he is no longer schizophrenic, and the sickle he was carrying was to protect him from mountain lions. A kid at school had a cough. Fears of...
Window washing and the Keystone Cops…
I went out to wash the windows. Plain water wouldn't cut it. I came in after the swabbing brush and the Dawn dish detergent. And I headed out again to hose down the windows and scrub. "I'll help," says Jane. The wind is blowing a gale. She comes out of the house. The...
Jane's got some Closed Circle questions. If you want to input, go there.
We're getting down to the nitty gritty and are talking about site structure and emphasis.
