- Something bad happened to my back on Saturday; it’s getting better, but it’s still stiff and kinda painful; drugs to the rescue?
- Amanda and I and the Kai went to the Japanese Garden on Sunday. We fed the koi. The Kai ran around in circles and chortled.
- It looks like we might actually close on the house in time (i.e. this Friday). We have a tentative date to sign the papers on Wednesday, and we have planned to start moving this weekend. Our lender should be getting the results of the appraisal tomorrow and then should be able to finish the loan docs. Hopefully there will be no snags. I will call to set up the utilities and whatnot when we sign, but I will call to setup our internet services early so we can get it asap.
- I made potato chips from our home grown tubers. They were tasty.
- It has been a crazy week in the Rainier Valley… a few shootings, ten year olds mugging people on the bus and then getting shot, people getting set on fire… wtf?
- Our tomatoes are starting to ripen, but despite the heat wave we had earlier in the week, it has been pretty cool, so it may take a while for the others.
- I went to see our PCP with regards to allergies, hacking coughs, and high blood pressure, and left with a prescription for fluticasone… as nasal steroid that will hopefully help keep the hacking cough down and enable me to use CPAP regularly which will then lower my blood pressure.
