Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Calli!

At some point during the shitshow that was last Saturday, Gary removed the screen part from the screen door(maybe because he was extremely upset and was afraid he'd break it when he slammed it next). We have not replaced it yet. Today when we got home from lunch, he opened the main door and stepped through the screen door. I did not realize the screen door wasn't open, and walked into the frame and fell over. My shins are scraped up and sore. Sigh...

Meanwhile, we do not yet know when Mr. S will be discharged from the inpatient unit.(it's the same place he was in the time before) He will be continuing with the partial hospitalization program.

Fire is contained and mostly out now; a few of our friends were in evacuation zones, but we were not.

I'm very thankful it wasn't worse; the wind gets fierce up on those hillsides, and the devastating Oakland Hills Fire is still in recent memory.

I now release the fire~ma back into the wild.
