     This last confusion with the pathology report is finished, and now I feel so healthy.  Amazing how a single word can make me sick, I realize that I am ok and ready to be in the world. I remind myself to check in with my body to see how I am doing rather than written reports.

     My friend driving his ancient truck arrives for a visit and conversation. He brings a sweet treat to eat. And we continue our decades long conversation about life and families and now about health and sickness. My other friend gives her new puppy sweet treats to calm her down, during visits with me. Sweet treats are great for puppies and for me.

     The day warms up and we open up the doors to the outside world. Several bright red leaves still cling to the old apricot tree. Unusual looking small birds hang around the bottle bush trees for awhile before they move on.

     We watch another episode of PLURIBUS in the evening.  A strange wonderful series. I have read 150 pages of THE HALLMARKED MAN, only 650 pages to go. I am not giving up. Sigh.
