Rainy day; Eric gets his ya-ya's out while Peg snuggles in

Raining like hell all afternoon. Perfect day to take the trike out. I transported my shuttle in the Mother Ship to the American River Bike Trail  (just a mile and a half from the house) to avoid the space case drivers texting, yakking and drifting into the bike lane. 24 miles later... Ahhhhh. Trike boy's gonna sleep well tonight.

Peg spent a delightful afternoon with her friend Claudia, then brother-in-law Greg and nephew Jeff stopped by. Greg was also the sushi fairy. Our little swimmer was delighted to hoover down a "Marilyn Monroll" (no, I am not making this up) from Mikuni's after practice.

I don't leave Peg alone these days. She can motor around okay, but can get lightheaded or dizzy. Just not comfortable with the thought of her being here without help. She was ambitious about getting a shower in tonight, but wisely postponed it until tomorrow.  Couldn't keep food down, and a little shaky. I try not to read too much into any changes in her condition.

She loves the rain. We sleep with the windows wide open.  It's really coming down now, a welcome, calming, grounding presence.
