Whoa! It's been that long!

    Not my intention. Things are going well, otherwise you would have heard. Or, you would have heard otherwise. Or something. I've been doing some very interesting, very involving grunt work that needed to be done and contemplating doing more, which I'll probably begin tomorrow. I have no idea from where I got this surge of energy and direction but I'm happy with it as long as it lasts.
    I have taken stats off and on although I forgot today. Yesterday, I should mention before I forget, she had a Bowel Movement. Between breakfast and lunch: Fair volume, good consistency, easy elimination, very easy clean-up. This evening, though, about an hour before retiring, she sat on the toilet with magazine and coffee at hand sure that she was "going to go in just a minute". She was in there 20 minutes before she gave up. I expect that she'll have a bowel movement tomorrow. I've been going a little easy on the fluids, especially since it seems to keep her a bit drier at night. Maybe she needs more fluids now.
    Which reminds me, I learned that urine from a healthy human body is sterile. Not sure exactly what the perimeters for "healthy" are. I'm sure my mother's urine is not sterile when she's bleeding from the urinary tract or when it's cloudy. Something with which to concern myself on another day.
    I'll be checking in, although not as often for a bit.
    Later.
