Jen wanted to try making "keto" bread with a new approach. It came out quite well, and we agreed to a couple of changes to make it even better. "Everything Bagel," Rosemary, & Cinnamon bread. I hit my goal, 173. It feels great to have finally returned to that after way too many years in unhealthy excess. I'm going to work hard to maintain this going forward. I dropped Lauren at work, then swung by Panorama to get my Planetary Design mug and put the screen back on the bathroom window. When I got there, I found a green waste bin filled with leaves that I assumed was Jeff and Terry's use as I offered. Then I went inside, and when I realized that Kathy was staying in Linda's room, I took a minute to return the bathroom door there for her use. When I went outside and put the window screen back, I noticed that something looked different. The fallen branches were missing from the hole in the fence. Not only that but so were more than 1/2 of the branches. Cut limbs and other pieces remain, but somebody did this. I had been trying to find a reasonably priced option to hire. Although the task is covered by insurance, I want to promote ethical rates and opportunities by getting estimates. Now it's 1/2 done! I'm trying to contact the neighbor in case she was involved in that. Or perhaps it was a good-samaritan effort by a neighbor ... but that seems like a stretch. Marissa and Nigel came down to visit my mom before moving to Washington in less than two weeks. It was a pleasant visit, and I am super excited for the opportunity this will be for them to start a new chapter. I went to Tommy's hockey game against LG High, and Jen helped get Lauren from Vasona to Yogurtland. I've not seen Linda for a few days now since Kathy's out, and it's been nice to take a break, but I'm ready to go again tomorrow. She's being moved from the private room to a shared space to reduce costs and avoid relocating her. It's an excellent step to take at this point. None of this is easy, and as I told Kathy, I'd rather assume she's aware of things than assume she's not, and I'm willing to put the time and effort into this, as a time will come soon where I won't be able to. Yes, life will move on and forward in many ways, and when I look back, I'll know I lived up to my ideals.
