Laundry list, sort of

July 8, 2025

Near my chair, a list on a slip of paper:  It said:

Print a poem

Replace knee

Decorate graves

Make paper

Fix house foundation

Paint touch up on garage

I like lists.

Please excuse this hiatus posting on my famous blog, “In Search of Bud,” with its 20, or so, readers.

I’ve been in a bind because after I had my knee surgery, the cut area has been hot and swollen. Completely normal, said Samantha, the able nurse who looked at it. You see, P. got worried because I often felt sickly, slept about 20 hours/day. Had no appetite. Pain was not an issue. Low blood pressure was an issue.

Summary: I’ve been asleep so I haven’t been writing. I have a better intent.

I feel better today, so I shuffle through the papers on table by my chair. And offer a word to you.
