K still at Swedish Hosp

They kept K overnight after dialysis yesterday, since it finished so late. With any luck, they'll discharge her in time to make her 1pm appointment with the prosthetic folks. She's really wanting to get hers adjusted. I headed straight to work this morning, in the hope of getting a covered parking spot, since Mandy's in the car again today. Success!

K Overnighted at Swedish Hosp

K's still at Swedish Hospital, slept some last night. I stopped by with her fuzzy blanket, a fresh baguette, and sips of Latté this morning. Her BP's still low. Should get Dialysis sometime today. Maybe she'll get out tonight if BP comes up. It's absolutely pouring rain now, as I contemplate running over to the parking garage where Mandy's sleeping in my car.

K admit to Swedish Hospital

K's foot Doc didn't like her low blood pressure today, and sent her to ER at Swedish hospital. The ER Doc didn't like it either, apparently, since they're admitting her at least overnight. I'm picking up the dog from the hotel, on my way to Swedish.

Teenagers everywhere!

The cast and crew of "Clue" just descended on us, moved into about 50 seats all around us, chattering up a storm. Takes me back a bit, to those days after the shows in High School, when we would do something similar, on a very much smaller scale... — at Village Inn.

Some hope

I walked through our house on Saturday, after the contractor said it would be ready to move back on Monday, and was incredibly disappointed at the poor quality of the work. Floor stain smeared all over all the baseboards, for example. With everything wrong, it feels like they've taken a perfectly good house, with some warped floorboards, and wrecked everything else. I composed a list of 15 problems and sent it off to the contractor on Sunday. Now there's a ray of hope. The contractor printed my email, met me at the house this morning, and methodically addressed each of my concerns. They may yet get it right.
