"May you live in interesting times" ...
or, in our case, June.
- In the last Weekly Ephemera post I mentioned we canceled our Camino trip and we would try to move Mom's spinal surgery. At the time of that post I really doubted we could reschedule the surgery. We called Monday and to my utter surprise Mom's surgery was rescheduled for ... tomorrow. On Friday we had a long day full of pre-op examinations and tests. The next few weeks - starting on Monday at 5:00am - will be interesting to say the least.
- We continued to deep clean the house in preparation for the Wife's cousin and aunt's visit this week ... until the cousin called to cancel due to unexpected health issues. The cleaning wasn't a waste but it's probably safe to say we won't be deep cleaning the house again for another decade or so.
- On Wednesday morning, the day we would have flown to Spain for the Wife's Camino, I noticed the automatic sprinklers did not come on. Turns out the controller died. If we'd gone to Spain the grass and gardens would not have been watered during the 80℉ to 90℉ (26℃ to 32℃) temps we are experiencing and we would have returned in three weeksto a dead lawn. The sprinkler people are coming on Monday.
- Wednesday evening we had some crazy weather with wind, rain, and hail (pea to quarter sized). The clouds and lightning was incredible.
Storm clouds with a peak of blue. 
Sun lit storm clouds. 
A little bit of lightning. - I did not walk this week and, frankly, I'm not sure when I will restart my walking. Depends on my Mom's schedule really. My body is starting to miss it.
- As for my entertainment for the week, it was basically the same as last week - "Alone" and "Doctor Who".
