Have not heard much from brother. Hate the telephone game. Did speak to my SIL's mother and have noted that, given that there have been complications all along in my SIL's pregnancy, the transport of the SIL to California may have been a considered and discussed plan between my brother & his wife. I'm recognizing from the calm tones of my SIL's mother that perhaps this has not been a panicked crisis, but something that my brother and his wife have been able to deal with with some sense of control.
I am beginning to sort all the communication on fact or conjecture.
I think the fact is they will likely loose their child, but all the assertions about what emotional dimensions are going on with my brother and his wife are conjecture.
We will visit them soon. They are jet lagged now.

Work is dense and consuming. I feel terribly behind. I feel like i'm hurtling towards a wreck.

We own a jeep. I think my colleagues are highly entertained by how excited i am to go camping. I feel such delight in the thought. Colleague at work says he thinks the 31" aren't tooo bad, even though they;re a little bigger than one ought to use. Odometer and speed readings will be wrong.
I'm pondering that the spare is not nearly as large as the rest of the tires (and is thus ornamental, best i can tell). However, a 31" and wide tires are too heavy to hang on the tail gate. So, i'm looking at new tire + new bumper + swing mount for spare. Christine wants to get the seatbelt replaced. None of these things are included in the mechanic's estimate of what needs to be done to improve the health of this twenty plus year old car.
It is a measure of how smitten we are that we don't blink. Commence sinking money into the car, now.

I've seeds sprouting from my plantings over Memorial Day weekend. Finally!! I've been fighting the urge to dig up the seeds to see how they've changed, like the story i heard of someone's granddaughter. On the other hand, today squirrels were digging in my repotted geraniums with scarlet and cream nasturtiums. There are some sprouts though, so not all is lost. Still, grumble. We had a lovely blue-sky day, first in some days, and suddenly everything wilted. The stop of stretches of grey drizzle means the water toting season is back.
