Sleep Profiler
The BBC web-site has a Sleep Profiler tool which provides advice after you feel out a short questionnaire. People who don’t know how to calculate their weight in stones might want to check the chart at Fatfrank’s Weblog. I was astonished to find that the site does not think I have any sleep problems, because I never doze off during the day.
WordPress 2.3 and Mandigo 1.26
I just upgraded Five Acres with a View to WordPress 2.3 and the theme Mandigo 1.26 without breaking anything, as far as I know. Technosailer has a round-up of the changes for WordPress 2.3.
At The Library
On the door to the staff area behind the counter at the Briargate library: “Interlopers will be forced to read <b>War and Peace</b>.”
A Note from Lody’s Past
In June, I wrote about Lody and Mowers. Yesterday, that post received a comment from a woman named Julie who suspects she has one of Lody’s puppies. The dates are right, since Lody had one litter shortly before she came to live here around six years ago. Lody went back to her breeder when her elderly owner could no longer care for her. Her breeder started looking for a home for Lody since Lody didn’t care for being one of a large number of dogs. I found out about Ch Wild Winds Lody through a friend of the breeder’s, and took her on a week’s trial to make sure she would get along with our other dog, Dudley. Lody marched in, looked around, and decided she was home, even though Dudley needed a little work.

Grieving
My father-in-law went into the ICU of Bethesda Naval after surgery two weeks ago. This weekend he decided to refuse further medical treatment. He came home from the hospital yesterday afternoon. Jack, who flew in yesterday, was able to talk to him briefly last night. Early this morning, surrounded by his family, he died.
I probably won’t be posting much for a while yet.
