Ron and I brought the brush and recyclables to the transfer station, then to Walmart for one of his prescriptions and some shopping for the house.  Stopped off for pizza at Cumby&#8217;s, $7 weekend sale for a large pizza.  Pretty good, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I figure we can stop at a Hands Off! Rally either in Bennington or Keene on the way to Paulette&#8217;s memorial in Jaffrey on April 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ron is in pretty bad shape this evening. He remains suspicious, guarded and stubborn about a variety of things. I have a feeling he hasn&#8217;t been taking all of his meds.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also have a feeling that a lot of what he does is calculated . &nbsp;\u201cWhere is your Self to be found?\u201d the Austrian poet Hugo Von Hofmannsthal asked. \u201cAlways in the deepest enchantment you have experienced.\u201d  I think that Ron has either never experienced the &#8220;deepest enchantment&#8221; or experienced it only once in his 79 years and he mourns the loss.  I believe it&#8217;s part of why he&#8217;s so often nasty to me but I haven&#8217;t put the pieces together yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was hurting and took a couple of Tylenol. Felt faint and lightheaded about 20 minutes later. No, thank you.  Did a little vacuuming while Ron was out an didn&#8217;t fall on my face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put in a request to be considered for another dog, Frankie.  He&#8217;s three, a little young but according to his foster&#8217;s description, he&#8217;s not the type of doggo who needs to work off a lot of energy and is generally a happy sort.  We&#8217;ll see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"420\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image.png 420w, https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-261x300.png 261w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Landscaper came by to talk about some transplanting (grass in front of house to be replaced by a lilac, move hydrangea to the side, new tree in the back) and digging an extended garden plot.I raked the side yards and &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/?p=22241\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=22241"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22241\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22249,"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22241\/revisions\/22249"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=22241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=22241"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=22241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
