Sophie looks terrific and still reminds me of my Haya, who's now 26.. We're trying the Keto Diet these days for the second time around - a real challenge. But we're still dreaming of seizure- free days. Cannabis didn't do it and since our supplier temporarily stopped supplying CBD oil a few months ago we were forced to wean Haya off it. Surprisingly, that didn't upset her. I trust Sophie isn't seizing these days.

My son just supplied me with a few Tony Hillerman murder mysteries: I've begun with "Skeleton Man" which was quite good.

Rainy reading retreat, even the words are soothing! I am working my way through all of Louise Erdrich's novels, re-reading in the order of publication. I fell in love with her characters years ago and wanted to check how we have aged. I still love them.

As a "proper task", I am tackling one chapter of Moby Dick a day, I do that in the bathroom wrapped in the towel after my morning shower. This idea of a chapter a day actually came from you some years ago when you suggested reading War&Peace that way over one year as it has 365 chapters. I actually did that and it was really fabulous, I even followed Napoleon's troops to Austerlitz on google earth.
