Wave Without A Shore
It’s a work in progress but everything should work now
the freeze is coming—29 degrees Monday night.
The koi are huddled under the water hyacinth, and they aren't eating. The Valley had major hail, uncommon for us: usually hail falls as styrofoam pellets, but this dented cars. And then a major wind gust blew over the gulls that sit on our outdoor table, blew over the...
A rainy morning—finally. And I got to thinking about the Dark Ages…
The resurrection of the genealogy DB (it crashed) has gotten me into the Dark Ages again, and fixing breakfast this morning I got to thinking how rich my ancestors would think I am. Breakfast: I turn a tap, with a choice of hot or cold water to rinse a dish. I'm...
91750…and it's autumn here. I expect the trees to turn in days…
We're forecast to get into the 30's, and it hasn't gotten much above 50 this afternoon. They promise us rain, but I have yet to see more than a few stray-sheep clouds. The longterm forecast is saying we're entering an El Nino pattern, which will (usually) mean a rainy...

92000 words. And the power unit on my computer…'sploded.
Well, not quite, but it quit and then got very hot. I use a Dell. If you recall the viral internet pic of the Japanese businesssman recoiling in horror from a burning computer, you may remember that Dell and several other computers were getting batteries from, I...

Is there any item you absolutely cannot keep track of? Mine is…
glasses. Glasses and cups of coffee. I have lost my glasses again. A-gain! I have a problem. I have a torque in my vision: my eyes switch problems at a certain distance, which means I can't wear bifocals. A doctor who prescribed neomycin for a minor eye infection just...
no writing done today: the office reached critical mass…
It had become a Rubik's Cube problem. Move the wastebasket to move the box of sortables to move the chair to reach the stack... It's a very small office for 2 people and their business records. It's become complicated by computer bits and bobs, by research books, tax...
89394 words. And Jane’s aspect of Closed Circle now has content.
That rascal is going to have a bunch of books, several of them brand new, going up. She's been working on covers for the books, so she doesn't have the text fixed yet, and in her copious spare time she's been proofing Rusalka, but she is going to have a really big...

Ta-da! I have gotten cover images (I’m sure) and purchase buttons (I think)…
...actually installed on my Buy these downloads! page on Closed Circle. You can't see it yet, because I haven't figured out which toggles are safe to push, but I think I know how to make it visible. We have the sales pitch, we have the covers, we have buttons, and...
