Text of the page (random words):
ctors are all in utah and her pharmacist is in nevada i also don t know who any of them are my brother didn t show up until friday we still had a nice visit but i was about on my last nerve we had one day of her sneaking her meds twice before i put them under lock and key a total of twelve escape attempts and an endless stream of her expecting someone to come pick her up she then drifted into a loop of driving herself home then getting angry because her car was in utah not idaho she managed to call her 90 year old brother and ask if he was almost here i had to explain that he isn t coming and doesn t even know where i live she had a different loop about going somewhere and buying lunch this usually started when she was still chewing breakfast i did take her a couple of times but we can t afford to do that every day the hardest part was when she started looping into asking where we were i answered but followed up once to ask if she knew who i was she said yes but i didn t push to have her tell me she tends to keep irregular hours too bedtime is anywhere from 4 30 to 7 00 one night she went to bed then got up an hour later ready to start her day we were both still up but it wasn t morning she rustled around for hours and i stayed up using a rug to block the door helps slow her down and it makes some noise during an escape attempt i griped to copilot because my wife had to go to sleep to pull her early hospital shift copilot suggested that hanging a sheet over the door just makes it disappear for dementia patients i can t do that so he suggested a chair sure enough putting a chair in front of the door ended the whole breakout thing for her i didn t even have to sleep on the couch all night yesterday was awful she kept running to the car and trying to get in while we were carrying out luggage we explained that it wasn t time to leave yet my brother wanted a cup of coffee etc she freaked out when he went to the bathroom because he was out of sight for twenty seconds weird emotions as i waved at them driving away at her age it might be the last time i ever see her she certainly is aging fast it s been a long month and i ve been a shitty friend i tried to browse blogs when i had the chance and always managed to at least tweet them out for everyone as far as interacting there really wasn t much of that i ll try to do better now that i have time when i don t have to be a watchdog and even search and rescue service somewhere this coming week i want to look at my ongoing manuscripts i d like to dabble a bit in my fiction we have another big event ahead of us that will require about six weeks of my time but we don t have a timetable yet aside from that one i have a couple of medical things to take care of in early august 2026 is not going to go down as one of my favorite years share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on pinterest opens in new window pinterest share on whatsapp

here my brother showed up and dropped off mom he and i had a good visit then he had to hit the road he and his pseudo wife are going to boston to watch the tall ships sail in mom has slipped a lot in the last year she doesn t remember anything unless it is long term we ve told her at least twenty times that she is staying with us for a month this morning she proudly stripped the sheets off her bed in anticipation of going home today it s going to be a long month i ve been involved in some of this before so it isn t exactly new it just hits a little closer to home than the previous times she s also like a raccoon and just getting into everything i have to follow her around but i m not always sure what she will find one example is to put distance between ammunition and firearms there are times when i have to use the bathroom or water the garden and can t be there every second yesterday she fell into a loop of checking her call list on her phone then obsessively calling everyone in it some of those calls were from a month ago she convinced herself that someone was trying to reach her to tell her that somebody had died i just let her look at her phone but didn t realize the magnitude of what she was doing until relatives called to complain i cleared her recent call log and that seems to have ended it as such i may be a bit more quiet than usual for the next 30 days i m still here but my hands are kind of full right now share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on pinterest opens in new window pinterest share on

03 pm weekly update just got back from my walk took a new route and learned there is no sidewalk in our commercial area the stretch alongside a busy highway between the library and mcdonalds is just bare ground walked it anyway like a caveman the surprising thing was all the kids on e bikes and scooters there must have been two dozen of them here and there these guys looked like they were all about five or six years old i only think i am unhealthy wait until these guys grow up having never pedaled their own bike or kicked their own scooter parents allowing them to be cool might not be doing them any favors in the long run i did not produce a single new word again this week i decided to review my space opera anticipating diving in there again i have 1 5 volumes and just didn t get through it all there were errands and one morning i lost chatting with my daughter it was mom s turn today somehow this doesn t bother me as much as it used to there will be new words but my pace is more leisurely now i planted all the pots one day went with patty pan squash lemon cucumbers and jalapeños added a cherry tomato then i picked up some hanging baskets to try something called scarlet runner beans these are a kind of green bean but are also supposed to have pretty red flowers it s a total experiment based upon whether there is any difference between climbing and dangling i passed up on a beautiful basket of hanging strawberries not completely convinced that i won t go back for it some of this has to do with keeping the peace around here if old what s her face wants flowers i don t want to be accused of horking all the space saw a bit on the news out of las vegas somebody did a riff on the olympics but called it the enhanced games competitors were encouraged to use performance enhancing drugs and everything else they could get to gain an edge weird that they didn t smash any records i don t talk about it much but strange things happen to my books i published one about a global apocalypse about one month before covid shut everything down as one example back in 2017 i published one called the enhanced league and here we are again in the real world yeah that is a link if anyone wants to check it out tomorrow there is a service man coming by to look at the hvac nothing really wrong but i want a decent service before it gets really hot out i have lunch with an old friend on tuesday and i have to take old what s her face to the airport on friday so i have a bachelor weekend ahead of me probably donate a day to my daughter spend some time watering the potted plants probably spray for bugs and i might even find some time for new paragraphs welcome to june they are predicting the hottest one on record here and already talking about rationing water hope you

family gardening performance enhancing drugs reviewing the enhanced league writing may 23 2026 9 16 am checking in there hasn t been a lot to write about i managed a couple of writing days but while it moved the story ahead it wasn t any giant shootout level stuff i learned that mom is coming for a visit from late june to late july i m actually kind of excited about it but it comes with a level of responsibility too we re happy to have her and my brother is going to have a fun getaway during that time it does set the stage to not get my hat book published by halloween a year ago that would have freaked me out but i really don t feel the same pressures i used to put on myself it will get there when it gets there i m about to deviate back to my space opera for a while but am trying to resist that just to make forward progress on the main book i ll probably fall for it but jumping stories seems to make them both stronger for some reason nudging one takes the other out of my head and it makes a way for my brain to get out of its own way it sounds crazy but just not dwelling on tiny issues just seems to clear up the fog and allow better progress when i return this morning i reprogrammed the sprinklers i m seeing dry spots in the lawn and i had to increase the watering cycles it s awful damned early for that but it is what it is while i was out there i also used my clippers to remove a few invaders from my rose bed all kinds of things volunteer to grow there if you don t keep an eye on it i think all my peaches froze but the pears are looking pretty healthy i need to spray them with some sevin it s a vegetable grade product and i don t like to use anything too harsh it works to get rid of the coddling moths i also have to hit the crabapple because it will just be a breeding ground for them if i don t who knows maybe i ll put up some more crabapple jelly or even make more pickled crabapples this year old what s her face picked up these oddities yesterday they look like a chicken drumstick but are pure dessert the breading is a cereal concoction and the bone is a piece of chocolate they were actually kind of fun reminds me a bit of the ice cream potatoes they sell around town those look exactly like a baked potato but are just ice cream we have a loose plan to go to dinner tonight we still manage the occasional date night when we can that s it from me spraying weeding watering fertilizing but also a bit of writing time top it all off with a weird treat i hope all of you are doing well and finding fun things to do share this share

lunch meeting of the old man club three of us retired from the state of idaho but only two of us went again our partner has been having some health problems and i hope he s on the mend we went to olive garden but can take this wherever we want we are no longer limited to 30 minutes and don t have to stay close to the old office i managed to work through some introspection in my next volume of the hat series i struggle with these but i spread it across several small scenes so it didn t get blunt and heavy i even managed to weave some small humor into it all some days you eat the pie some days the pie tries to eat you and i mean that literally still cracks me up i whined about writing introspection in our top secret story empire lair all of my friends chided me to write something about it for se this is a difficult thing for me and i mentioned that any of them could do it when it was all said and done i wound up roughing it out anyway when i checked the calendar i m not up again until june so i have time to slick it all up but i think it will be a good post old what s her face ordered a bunch of crabgrass killer and some weed feed for me i didn t know she ordered it surprise i spent friday getting both spread on the yard it rained the whole time which is good for the process but not so good for the laborer i woke up this morning dying of allergies which makes no sense rain should have knocked that down not made it worse allergies get me in the eyes and any screen time is killing me today after this blog i m going back to a movie marathon speaking of my marathon i am watching the robocop movies on tubi i am surprised to see stylistic things that must have influenced my own writing i love how they built the broader world by including news bits advertisements and details like that i do the same thing night bump radio was based upon the old coast to coast broadcasts but the way of weaving them into my manuscripts is quite similar article v even includes a parody ad for the cybertruck that might be similar to the ad for the 6000 sux in the movie i recently posed on se about jumping the shark i haven t seen that in the movies yet but there are fins in the water this may be dark humor but it is also an adventure series accelerating action and stakes are showing up after this goes live i ll watch the third one and rest my eyes oh speaking of article v i spotted an outstanding review just moments ago i had an email from bookbub i don t have the finances for much of a media blitz but if you re interested there is now a fantastic review you can check out that was my week i hope all of you did a few fun things accomplished some goals and had a generally good time share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new
