lnxw48a1: Was able to #videochat with #sonOne, #GD1, #GD2 for about an hour and a half today on #Wire. He's been working 16 hours a day since June, but he got a week of vacation. It possibly means that he'll be unavailable again in a week, but I'll try to do #videochats with the kids. Was informed that #GD1 lost her phone. #GS1 likewise lost his phone, but found it and sent it to sonOne https://nu.federati.net/notice/3340953

lnxw48a1: Missed #sonOne’s #videochat call today, so we still haven’t connected since June.

lnxw48a1: Came in late, after #GS3 was in bed. The noise woke him, and he didn't immediately connect the face and voice from #videochat with the sttanger in his house. But after he was rested, he called me dadda (same name he calls both parents). I'm at 12K steps today, and my steps are a lot bigger than his. I swear I never had his level of energy.

lnxw48a1: #sonOne wasn’t available for #videochat when I called today, but I know he’s been working 16 hours a day, six or seven days a week since June, so it is okay. I’m expecting to see him in person soon. I should also see #GD1 and #GD2. I really miss seeing them in video each week.

lnxw48a1: Tried to call #sonOne on #Wire, so we can resume the weekly #videochat, but he's been working around sixteen hours per day since June, so that was again unsuccessful.

lnxw48a1: I missed having our weekly #videochat with #sonOne and #GD1 and #GD2 again, but I did get about fifteen minutes with #GS3. He showed me his toy truck and said “trunk”, but would not repeat it. Then he called me “Dadda”, just like he calls both of his parents. He learned to ask “What is that?”, but he did not say it during our call.

lnxw48a1: 45 minutes long and late-ish #videochat with #GS3. We got to talk about a couple of planned visits ... and the “Horton Hears A Who” book I bought for him. He’s tall enough to reach the top of the mini server rack as well as the stove. He babbled at me off and on for the entire chat. He waved goodbye to me at the end. Of course, he wandered off a couple of times. He wa https://nu.federati.net/notice/3322495

lnxw48a1: The hydrocortisone cream seems to have helped. Skin is a lot less itchy than it was earlier. I don't think the cream is the reason I am sleepy and have a mild headache. Skipped this week's #videochat with #sonOne, #GD1, #GD2. Probably #naptime.

lnxw48a1: My 12 year old ( #GD1 ) and 8 year old ( #GD2 ) granddaughters were animated and playful today. I suppose it means they went to bed on time last night. They usually stay up late on Saturday and then are sluggish all day Sunday, which is when I have my weekly #videochat with them and their dad #sonOne.

lnxw48a1: Finished today’s #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ) already. Good morning and #TZAG. Yesterday, I drank double my usual amount of (decaffeinated) coffee and my usual amount of water, as the resurgent cold kept converting fluids into mucus.

lnxw48a1: #sonTwo installed a "storm door" on the enclosed porch, so that they can sit outside in the evenings during the warmer part of the year. Today's #videochat with him and #GS3 took place out there. My grandson--like his father--is really texture oriented, so he likes the door mat. But other than that, he's not especially thrilled about a small area with no entertainment. He kept pointing at the door and babbling.

lnxw48a1: We had our first family #videochat last evening on #Jitsi_Meet. There were some occasional quality issues ... possibly because three of us were connecting from different rooms here. Added to whatever game #lazyNephew was playing, it may have saturated the connection. My oldest brother was unable to connect, but no one has followed up to try to figure out why.
