Sleep 0400 to 1030 (6-1/2 hours)

• Oops. Didn't realize that my new iPad Air M3 came with iPadOS 18 and is still on it. I'll wait to upgrade to iPadOS 26 until I'm home. I'm looking forward to multiple windows.

• Dave S wasn't around so we did DDO White Plume Mountain with our good characters.

Sleep 0215 to 1015 (8 hours)

• My cousin Jaime and his wife and eldest son (also Jaime) came for lunch. Since all three sons are attending USA colleges (two in California and one in Indiana) they're all applying for permanent resident and elder Jaime and wife are looking to buy a place in California.

Sleep 0145 to 0600, 0845 to 1100 (6-1/2 hours)

• Mom's doctor visit. Stitches removed. She is healing well. Now allowed to bend knee 30 degrees + 10 degrees per week (you can set it on the brace). Next appointment in 4 weeks.
• DDO Symphony of the Fey run is done as I died in Madstone Crater. Tried a jump but fell into lava, cast Dimension Door but died before I could get through. Ironically I remember dying this way before in a hardcore event, maybe even in the same place. There is a point where I think I can shortcut and save a few seconds but the jump is just a bit too far and you don't grab onto the ledge.

• I figured out the Comcast account web site doesn't quite work in Safari (some pages just never load completely). Maybe I already knew this.
• Slow start (my stocks were under from start of the year to mid-year) and slow end (stocks down 15% the last couple of months). But overall up 16% YTD and now at almost $3M in retirement funds.

• It's been one year doing Forever Notes, though I've only been doing the journaling part not so much the data storage stuff.

Sleep 0030 to 1015 (9-3/4 hours)

• Power outage at my place last night, about 4 hours. Couldn't reach my server in the middle but can reach it now. I 'm guessing UPS ran out of power so Sonic ONT went offline and my MBP kept running on internal battery long enough for power to come back (if it shuts down then starts up after power outage it would be stuck on login screen with no services up).
