It started with two solid adventures into the world around me, and then led into a reconciliation with Mark and John's and my eleventh anniversary, and then went on with more work on my knee. The knee is gradually getting better, but it's a background thing compared to everything else that's been going on with the development of software before code freeze and then the reoccurance of my problems with my wrists.

The wrists started to get worse and then get better with time and effort and the right kind of exercises. Strength is better than simple usage.

Fezzik adapted pretty well to staying at home and visits folks with us and does a really good job of staying around home when we keep an eye on him. He also gets taken in for a 100,000 mile check up as he starts to look like he's slowly starting to break down, but pretty much everything gets fixed up pretty well by his vet. That is quite the relief.

The month ends on us building a deck and taking out two nasty wasp nests and getting our house painted completely. So everything outside looks nearly as neat and new as the inside was getting with all the additions and remodelling we've been doing there.
