Good news: Bruno has gotten in my lap (briefly)!! And he's started chasing his tail this week, which i take as a sign of playful relaxation.

Sad news: i think i have killed another pecan. The one that has survived is down hill from our ... perc field... and so has had moisture presumably these dry years. I'm hoping the apparently dead pecan will recover and sprout from the root stock,  and that i have some chance, possibly less than 1 in 2 that it will be able to pollinate the survivor.

Had a one on one visit with my nephew D, pleasant and ... well, i'm not sure what to think about my brother's family in general. He's definitely a charming, successful, and bright young man.

My brother's mission to get his stuff out of my Dad's house ended in a mess. My brother's workaholic ADHD  passed to his wife's cold disregard (or spousal boundary setting where my brother's failure does not mean she's got to make up for it). My Dad is in a dither, but he's finally on the side of recognizing he has to do something about stuff.

YAY BRUNO!!! I'm so happy to hear this
and you didn't kill the pecan, the pecan heard about the current state of affairs and decided to not participate
