Not a bad day. Jenny, i am sure you’re right that I must be careful about abrupt changes of position and attentive to blood pressure. They are trying to engage a separate carer to help the first one with transfers and personal cate. I tremble at the expense and will try hard to prove it unnecessary.
Little else today. Some knitting. The baby sweater is looking wonderful and deserves to be finished but I wonder if I’ll make it. There’s still plenty of time.
But mostly I have just lain here peacefully listening to Middlemarch. It’s terribly good. During the night I listened to the Democratic Convention, perforce. What a pleasant voice for shouting Michelle has! I am afraid Kamala is a bit shrill.
Wordle: Nicely divided today. Four for me and Rachel and Mark. Five for Alexander Astonishing twos for Ketki and her son Thomas.
Across the pond, it was 5 for Roger and no news from Theo
It's good to hear of a nice day with knitting. Kamala sounds fine in her ads, so it was probably the extra strain of the shouting.
ReplyDeleteThe Maryland weather finally turned into the annual August cold snap, at least a week later than usual. Still sunny.
Some knitting sounds very nice!
ReplyDeleteSweet photo on instagram of you and the cat! I just returned from the Vesterheim Norwegian American Museum in Decorah Iowa and saw some incredible textiles! I can't imagine how folks used such fine yarn with no electric lights!
ReplyDeleteKamala has a slightly higher pitch to her voice, and in a space as big as she was in EVERYONE has to shout.
ReplyDeleteIt's good that you've picked up your knitting; I will have to look out for that pattern. Sending you good wishes from the Midwest in the US.
I hope you got to hear Kamala’s acceptance speech. I thought she sounded human, caring, and tough! The message of including all people in her outreach was refreshing!
