We started the morning filling the pill box, our second time.\u00a0 We have seen pictures of folks going through this routine.\u00a0 One pill is only once-a-week, on Monday morning, and likely only for a month or two.\u00a0 Some I\u2019ll take for the rest of my life.\u00a0 Some are twice a day.\u00a0 Some need to be broken in half because I don\u2019t want to try and swallow the big ones whole.\u00a0 Some are tiny.\u00a0 One is dark green.\u00a0 One is bright yellow. One is chewable.\u00a0 One says don\u2019t chew or break. Others have to take many more than we are currently dealing with.\u00a0 Sorry folks!\u00a0 And some folks have very expensive pills to pay for.\u00a0 Sorry again, but these are relatively inexpensive.<\/p>\n
Today brought long distance phone calls from family and friends. Otherwise, the day was uneventful. I made time for leg exercises and to eat 3 meals (I\u2019m still a light eater), and take my pills.\u00a0 Then we worked on some \u2018Thank You\u2019 stuff.<\/p>\n
So while we were at home basically on cruise control a friend went flying for us \u2013 into the winds of an approaching storm. John wanted an air photo of the location of the weather station \u2013 it\u2019s so new it wasn\u2019t there when currently available photos were taken.\u00a0 We asked and she said she had to fly anyway \u2013 but whether that \u201chad to\u201d was a required time-in-air thing or a psychological thing she didn\u2019t say.\u00a0 Late afternoon she called to say that despite getting jostled about some she got a batch of photos.\u00a0 Now she will export to her computer, create a CD (because of large file sizes), then John will upload, resize, crop, and annotate. \u00a0Then one will become part of a public (viewable on-line) weather station atlas.\u00a0 The technology is as amazing as that found in intensive care hospitals — even if what transpired today hasn\u2019t saved my life I\u2019m still impressed.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m still working through the batch of emails that have piled up since November, and responding to current ones.\u00a0 John goes in and out but returning frequently to see what I need.\u00a0 I\u2019m spending time in a recliner chair and while I can get down and up, I can\u2019t make the thing lay back in the recumbent position and a recliner isn\u2019t much good if it won\u2019t recline.\u00a0 John is the power unit that makes the silly thing recumb.<\/p>\n
