Some mornings are like that

1. Recovery from surgery is going great. It's great! It's far, far better than I feared. It hurt like absolute heckin' heck for a couple weeks, that's for sure, but now I am simply pleased.

2. At 7:39 this morning our neighbor said that their garage, in which our adult son had been storing his $3000 ebike while our garage is torn down and rebuilt, was broken into last night and said ebike was stolen.

3. Our eldest has broken up with their partner of three and a half years, and we are heavily enmeshed in what the next step of her housing is going to be. I.e., are we cosigning a mortgage with her. This is still is process/flux/chaos, tbd.

4. The garage and ADU build moves along in fits and starts due to the vagaries of the inspection schedule.

Lot of moving parts, is all I'm saying.

That’s a lot of moving parts!

Sending well-lubricated bearings and pillow blocks to place where needed.

Oh yikes! How nice of the other crises to wait til your surgical recovery was so well along. I bet not every crisis waited, though.

David rewired our previous house and dutifully got a permit and reported when the work was done. No inspector showed up until we hired a general contractor to oversee renovating the kitchen. The contractor's idea about permits was to wait and see if the city noticed, and get a permit at that point. Who should show up a few days into the kitchen work but a city inspector wanting to look at David's three-year-old wiring project. While he was doing that, the contractor vanished downtown and applied for permits to fix up the kitchen.

The inspectors for the kitchen caused a few delays, but nobody waited three years again, at least.

I hope all goes as smoothly as it may.

As we're in the early stages of a renovation ourselves, I sympathize with the stop/start nature of it all. I'm glad the surgery has been pleasing.

I'm glad the surgery is going well, and fingers crossed for the rest. I hope that ebike was insured!

I'm in so much pain, I don't think this is ever going to end.
