Month: January 2019

Status: It’s wet outside, not really raining.

Plans: Drive to Emory Hospital and have the cancer removed from my ear at 07:00. Church tonight at 19:30.

Purchases: Need to buy a part for the guest toilet and a new voltmeter.

Narrative: Drive to Emory Hospital was uneventful even though we went to the wrong building at first. Procedure took about three hours to complete and cancer was about the size of a quarter. They cut away the cancer and drew the loose skin together with stitches. (I won’t know how it looks for a few days.) I do think I’ll have to do this one more time with another nodule on the same ear. I told the Doc about it, but we didn’t communicate the correct location while I was in the office.

We took a good long nap after getting home. I have antibiotics to take and my ear is a bit sore. Hard part for the next 48 is I have to keep the dressing in place and dry. (I sweat easily.)

The Pi-Aware cable from the antenna to the receiver came in today. I am waiting on the antenna, that is the key part to the upgrade and a permanent installation.

Tomorrow: All the parts for the Pi-Aware come in on Thursday.

Status: It’s New Years Day, it’s still raining.

Plans: Build a box for the Pi-Aware and have some fun with our friends.

Narrative: Slept in and had my morning cup of coffee while checking my phone and E-Mail for traffic from Florida. Punched a hole in my project box for the Pi-Aware and sealed the joints from the weather.

J&J came over and we cooked two “Home Chef” meals, they were quite delicious and terrific fun to do together. We played a game of scrabble before they retreated to their home.

I checked the network wiring for the Pi-Aware and there is a spare Ethernet cable to the network patch box from my cave. I also have a POE injector and a POE receiver for the Pi. I am uncertain if I’ll power the Pi from the network patch box or my cave. The POE receiver can supply 2A @ 5V which is sufficient for the Pi-Aware receiver.

Repairs: The guest toilet handle is broken and Lowe’s was closed today.

Tomorrow: Undergo the MHO procedure to remove the cancer from my ear.
