Happily Married Generation Jones to Beloved. Daughter is referred to as DD (Darling Daughter). Cat is Resident Dictator, aka RDπŸˆβ€β¬›. Born and bred in Charleston, SC. If know, you know. I chose to be positive in a horrible world but I am 100% pro-people.

Beloved says he has lost 2 hours today because of Daylight Saving Time. One hour from the β€œSpringing Forward” and 1 hour setting all the clocks.

DD is home and sleeping. Hopefully she will heal better in her own bed with no one waking her every 4 hours to do vitals.

She is better so I’m better. Thank you for your positive thoughts. I’ll stop bothering you. Good night.

We are with her. She is in her room. 5 1/2 hrs surgery. Because this is a teaching hospital and everything is done by committee there is no one to talk to us. She is in pain, crying and I feel totally helpless.

I live less than 2 miles from the hospital so I went home when they took her at 11. I know they have my cell. I guess they will call when she is in her room but I wish I knew if she was even in recovery. This waiting is hurting me.

This past fall I helped a family member who was having surgery at the Roper-St Frances hospitals. They would send updates about where the patient was in the surgical process that reminded me of what companies do shipping your package. It helps. With MUSC I’ve heard nothing. I have no idea how DD is.

This was on my Kavu strap. Maybe this is the problem.

DD has surgery about 12:30 but last night they had to align the break and spitted her arm. They gave her ketamine as pain control. She said it was horrible, people looked like stick figures, she was in a tunnel and it sounded weird. She wonders why anyone would consider it recreational.

Interesting. The hospital WiFi will let me see this but won’t connect the ⏰app.

Compound fracture. Surgery to follow.

They say that the detector reacts to the same metals that guns are made of. Now I’m trying to figure out what I have in my bag that is gun metal?

DD demonstrated what happens when biking around Hampton Park and a runner stops in front of you. I’m in the MUSC emergency room waiting to be called back. Gravity 1, left arm 0.

You didn’t have a paper drape?

That sheet of blue paper was protection and you have to put down to dress.

It’s funny what can trigger generational trauma. My urban P. grandparents had a pantry room because of being hungry and no food to buy during the depression. Yes, I laughed. Now the state of the world plus hearing Cali’ is having H2O problems has started me buying more & I don’t have a spare room.

Beloved is going out to band marsh sparrows leaving the house at 4:15. (The tide dictates the time.) I’m glad he likes this. Personal I’m planing to act like a cat and take up our whole bed stretching like a cat.

What is tonight like? I did the dishes, I planned the meal, I set the oven’s temperature-and did not hit β€œstart”. DD just noticed and set the oven. So how is your evening going?

And every lesbian I’ve ever met was not threatened by my partner being a man. Unlike men who are upset that I’m attracted to my husband and not them.

I’m straight and I have a Subaru Outback- recommended by my husband- someone who totally respects function over flash. (He won’t buy me jewelry but will buy a silver fountain pen because it’s a tool). Maybe Lesbians respect function? Instead of a misogynist titles it should be practical respect.

I have a Theater degree from the University of South Carolina in 1978. There is a bandsaw there that needs a sign documenting body parts β€œinteracted with” from professors. Don’t remember any students making tributes.

I have rarely been around snow so when I have ever tried to build a snow sculpture I to build it up- usually with cleaner snow off a car. Apparently i have been doing it wrong. You build a mound and scrap down. This is important information which I hope to never have an opportunity to use.

We have one bagel left and DD asked Beloved to leave it for her. He said if she gets to it first. (He has been in a mood since installing the dishwasher had problems.) So… our intelligent daughter got to it first- she hid it.

We have our new microwave. Yea! Also a new dishwasher to replace the 2 tiered dish rack, aka broken dishwasher. There have been serious complications so I wish Beloved would slide it into its space so I can have a new dish rack. I will sort this out but not on Saturday night. I am capable.
