Started But Curtailed
I tried very hard to get a post completed this morning... but I was unable to due to a plethora of EARLY interruptions. The hallway doors to the office suite area (one set at each end) are usually not opened until 8:00am, but, unbenounced to me, one of these sets of doors (not the one I entered from) was left open.... therefore students came in early. So, I will try to continue and finish it tomorrow.
Various late afternoon thoughts:
- As always, a wonderful pipe would be such a beautiful way to end the day while in my beast of burden going home. Although I miss all my typical pipes I would enjoy through the day.... the "drive home pipe" was one of my absolute favorites.
- My SIL was shipped home (against my wife and my ardent suggestions). She is now sitting around, tepidly "awaiting" physical therapy. My wife and I fear the worse.
- I need to skeedattle quickly if I am going to get to swim..... I have our first Fall performance of our community band to play at tonight. And, it is an outdoor concert.... fortunately it is actually SUNNY here and around 70 degrees (~21 C).
- My run was pleasant and needed this morning.

I would be very concerned about your SIL's situation also. Not being mobile leads to many issues and dangers. You sound busy--but with positive events!
I am just thinking that curtailed and detailed are very different.
Deus caritas est!
Thanks for the new (to me) word: unbenounced. I had to look it up and am glad I did. Here’s a nice, even lyrical explanation for others who may also not know it.
“In the vast landscape of language, "unbenounced" exists as a whimsical blend of two established terms: “unbeknownst” and “unannounced.” The former suggests an event or fact occurring without someone's awareness, while the latter refers to something appearing without prior notice. Together, they form "unbenounced," which seems to imply an action unfolding surreptitiously, catching individuals off-guard without any intentional forewarning. Yet, despite its compelling allure, "unbenounced" remains an unrecognized entity in formal lexicons, a product perhaps of an accidental slip of the tongue or a playful convergence of sounds seeking harmony.”
