A few days ago in the broad afternoon daylight, one of our resident owls sat on a limb directly in front of my study window, so I got to watch him for awhile. He is huge, like two feet tall.

Wow! That sounds amazing. (Did he have any letters for you?)

Hurray for the Thing!! *\o/!!!

Re 4: *hugs and hugs* Chronic illness are rough on the people who care for us. My partner feels that too. :-(
