Excellent, Wildflower! Super congrats!

Most of my past hospitalizations have been in the spring. Even years I have narrowly avoided the hospital, my worst were in the spring. I think I had a couple summer hospitalizations. I don't recall any in the winter or fall. Maybe one, at most.

Today was stressful, but my brother made the day end with eventual success with our plumbing issue. Bro was under the sink for two hours, soldering and more. Then he ran into an issue he said was even beyond him. That's rare! He is an electrician and can do a lot of plumbing, but I needed an official plumber to finish the job. My brother called a plumber friend who came within four hours. The plumber friend had to quickly run to the hardware store, but finished the work in 30 mins after. Since I was my brother's sister, the plumber friend wasn't going to charge me anything. I forced at least $100 on him, and he luckily took it. I had also forced $120 on my brother, plus lunch and dinner. That's a steel compared to local plumbers, who may not have come until as late as Thursday or Friday. My brother stayed with me most of the day, including when his plumber friend came. I love my brother 💖!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tomorrow we get our new dishwasher. I hope that goes smoothly. My brother said if it doesn't, to call him again.

I see my psychiatrist tomorrow for the first time in six weeks. He's been on his extended annual vacation. I can't wait! I adore him, too. It's been rough without him.
