Wiggle Your Fingers

That's what Kathie has to do as her left hand heals following the surgery. Only about one inch of the pointer finger and thumb can be seen above the cast, but she needs to keep wiggling them to help maintain circulation in that hand. There is not even enough hand available to open a water bottle.

She was able to sleep all night. in fact, she missed her normal pain pill time by two hours, so woke up with it already hurting and had to wait until the medication kicked in. Alison is staying with her one more day and I plan to stay home tomorrow.

The only thing that means to you is that there will not be a Clarity of Vision. Yes, it could make your Friday seem interminable, but it cannot be helped. Maybe you can just read the first two panels of today's cartoon today and save the other two for tomorrow?

The weather here is cooling off over the next few days. Our average temp this time of year is 72F, and we have been running above that for the past week or so. Now, we will be dropping back down to 67F or so. Yup, you know what that means. I'll need to break out my jacket again.

The funeral services for our friend, Pat, are Saturday morning at 10:15am at Tri-City Baptist Church in Chandler. Continue to pray for Denise and family as she goes through these next few days.

I taped the final Jeopardy episode with Watson, the computer, playing the two former champions. Even though I know the outcome, I wanted to watch one of them. And can anyone claim to be surprised by how it ended?

Well, it is Thursday, which means I need to prepare for the 8:30am conference call. That means I need to ask you to leave. It may be Monday before we visit again, so look around a bit before you go. I'm going to sip into my shrinking cube and do some work on my smaller footprint computer. Take care.
