My house plumbing is fixed now thanks to the courage and ingenuity of my daughters and the house cleaners.  Using towels and an outside water hose they pushed out the clog.  I am not sure how this happened, I was hiding in my room overwhelmed with anxiety and fear.  My usual plumbing service couldn’t come for a week.  So this brave group of people developed a plan and did it. I am in awe.

My house and my body are both are suffering from old age and worn out plumbing. Sigh.

Cold windy night.  We had a fire in the fireplace and watched a movie, AFTERSUN, in the evening. A slow thoughtful European movie. Not sure if I liked it.

I am rereading THE ART OF DEATH by Edwidge Danticat. It is a compelling look at how writers describe death in their work.
