Finished reading: The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride 📚Oddly disappointed. I had liked Deacon King Kong but felt like I was missing something with this one. Was there a deeper message that passed me by?

Finished reading: Circe by Madeline Miller 📚I’m on a Greek myths kick so this was a good addition. A nice meditation on the pluses and minuses of immortality.

Finished reading: The Romantic by William Boyd 📚excellent novel based on a real life. Cashel Ross, like Zelig, was everywhere in the 1800s.

I need a fantastic presentation remote (clicker) that works great with Apple Keynote and uses a USB-C dongle for connectivity. I don’t want to rely on Bluetooth and I don’t want an ugly dongle that is USB-A on one end and USB-C on the other. As far as I can tell, this product does not exist. Help!
Finished reading: Circling the Sun by Paula McLain 📚A nice light novel about Beryl Markham.
Finished reading: A Woman of the Iron People by Eleanor Arnason 📚wonderful 1970s science fiction. I didn’t want it to end.

All hail physical therapists! I broke my leg 7 weeks ago. Freed from bed this week. Went to PT and said “my leg feels like a wet noodle, like it’s barely part of me.” They nodded and had me do a bunch of stuff. After an hour, I was walking. Still on crutches if outside but it’s a lot of progress.
