As the November days get shorter, this week has been filled with medical matters and not many adventures to relate.
On Monday, Harry was scheduled for a cardioversion the following day. He has been through a lot since September 15, when his health took a bad turn. The cardioversion was to correct atrial fibrillation that has been going on for some time, so it took longer for Harry to bounce back than he has done in the past. But he is very gradually getting better, and has even managed some work in the studio.
Today, I was honored (and very apprehensive) to actually help in the studio. It fell to me to remove Jackie Joyner Kersee’s head! Harry guided me (and took a couple of pictures), and I am relieved to say I did not ruin the sculpture.
Now, the head will be sculpted on a table and reattached at a future date. It is a great honor to be involved in the project!
We have had some dreary November weather, but also some warm temperatures, and I have managed a little bit of time outside, which is always good for my soul. At long last, there is moisture in the ground, enough to plant some very late Fall bulbs.
Yesterday, I spent the morning getting a haircut and running some errands, which included a stop at The Tack Trunk. Eddy was delighted to join me. He loves visiting The Tack Trunk, as do I.
Weedy, meanwhile, looked after Harry while Eddy and I were gallivanting.
Bart came in from a damp day, ate his dinner, then had a good roll and a laugh.
Marmalade awaits me every afternoon to remind me to open a can of food for the barn cats.
It is time for Project Feederwatch – the counting of birds. It is more difficult than counting foxhounds from horseback.
We are enjoying a quiet weekend, with another medical visit in store next Tuesday. This evening, there was a sliver of moon rising at evening. We are surrounded by beauty here, and grateful for every day.
Be safe, be well, be strong. Be grateful and kind. Slava Ukraini!!! Peace.
