Good morning, Good Geeks! Went for my walk. Watered my plants. I have an eye doctor appointment at 9:30, so I need to hit the shower. Cate is coming down to play. Another steamy day here. I might have to get in her pool with her. Not much else is happening here. How about you? I hope everyone has a good day!

But, her blood pressure spiked, and her doctor started inducing labor last night. It's slow going. Hoping things start moving along soon, so she can avoid having a C-section. Wa...
