Yay! My drivers license, suspended since my second 'night seizure' as it is a form of epilepsy, has been reactivated by the DMV in today's official letter! I can drive again. No doubt, my regimen of Kepra, Plavix & aspirin; and sleeping with a CPAP mask enabled my physician to reverse his original required notification to the state after no further incidents for 4 months!. Being stuck in the house for 4 months has been tough though; particularly for my wife who doesn't like driving and is accustomed to my doing all the errand trips. I did keep the batteries charged up on my 'wheels' during the crisis, so I'm off to smog the '05 Corolla for its yearly registration tomorrow. The up side: at least I didn't have to pay the outrageous $6.00 gallon price for ga$oline during the ordeal!

Happy Halloween
This morning I opened the front door to this - my neighbour grew this sucker in a growbag. She says she has 2 more if I want another one but it's bloody huge - I reckon I'm going to be eating soup for the next six months

Cloudy and overcast today but at the bottom of my garden two Dutch warships are seeking shelter.

Moira showed me an eyeball she just finished as part of the zombie bear, or 'zombear' she's crocheting (as she's calling it). I asked if it shouldn't be called an "undeaddy bear"

Nowthat I'm child-free? I'm an 'undaddy' bear!
As the spouse of an inveterate knitter/crocheter in my own right, I know U can't bear to B without her!

You could learn celestial navigation! I'll help!
But seriously, here's hoping it's a mild case and you get well soon! Please take care of yourself, get plenty of rest, stay hydrated and fed. And don't exert yourself if at all possible. Best Wishes, Sean

Thanks for the well wishes! Celestial Navigation, now that's a good one. I'm not positive I have a real world use for such a skill in the era of other air navigation techniques, but I'll do some reading (I have plenty of time)

....I'm off to my daughter's Robert Lewis Stevenson Museum whiskey tasting to raise money for the museum. I'm the designated driver since I don't drink. It's the first tasting since the pandemic. Scottish writer RLS was fond of Talisker Whiskey and I'll at least be wearing my Talisker sweatshirt from my visit to that distillery on my last Scotland trip. The museum is along the Silverado Trail in the Napa Valley where RLS lived for a season and later penned one his famous works: The Silverado Squatters. Having devoured Kidnapped and Treasure Island (from which my sig is inspired), in my youth, I'll have to read that eventually...
