Highlights: Another day spent trying to ensure, 100%, that the data migration from the old server to the new one was successful. It's been an ongoing repetitive effort with continuous "time outs," regardless of all settings. And I am again faced with "3 minutes remaining" showing for more than 2 + hours. This is all too familiar, so while waiting, I decided to set up the Mac Mini for Jikoji. Which also comes with an obstacle course for installing and updating machinations. Both are in "active" states as each runs the gauntlets. In between all of this, I managed to cover the outdoor furniture before the rain came, install the solar charger for one of the outdoor cameras, and reinstall the magnetic charger in the Tesla after stumbling upon it while looking for something else. Oh, and some ball-play with LLucky, of course. The best part of this has been not letting the hurdles and potholes affect my mood.
Insights: I looked again at the email Randy had sent me regarding Martin's health only to find that he had fwd'd an email from Connie with additional details that went unnoticed when I first read it. It spelled out his circumstances in greater detail. In simple terms, he's in hospice and not doing further treatments. I wrote to her and sent him another more direct message. I don't know if I'll receive a reply. I don't know how I might manage a scenario such as this were the tables turned. I do know that what we think we'd do and what we end up doing when a hard reality surfaces aren't always aligned. And that someone I highly regard is navigating a complex set of difficult emotions. Sigh.
