This week, the infusion center (which Ed now refers to as the 'confusion center') closed on Thursday and Friday for the holidays so all the confusees had to be squashed into Monday-Wednesday schedules. He combined it with an unsuccessful attempt to get an Enhanced Driver's License (because his Nexus card is about to expire and he has no renewed one yet), and ambiguous success to get the wiring fixed in the Subarus (whose warning lights refused to turn off; not flashing ones, just steady ones). It turned out that I had accidentally switched on a hidden/undocumented switch, so they just showed him the switch and turned the lights off and we went back to using the car which had been sitting in the driveway for 10 days with its battery disconnected. Everything could be called a confusion center.
Anyway, the CEA came in down again at
5.8 5.4 (from
6.6 6.8). And the infusion was conducted without further problems except for some fatigue for a few days and no sleep the first night. They must put something in that bag like concentrated caffeine that wears off after the first 24 hours. And otherwise, all is as before.
We transcended Thanksgiving. We continued our efforts in searching for a household cat. (You can read this story on http://getthewholepicture.blogspot.com) And we raised some more money for the new library. (Currently at $78,000 and hoping for a $23K surge from December.) And we thought poorly of the many grey, rainy, 42 degree days. And we thought about being very grateful for electricity and its offshoots, including heat.
