- An update on the old man for everyone. After a scary few days when he didn't seem to recognize us, he seems to be at least partly back and semi mobile. His right leg is still paralyzed and he has no feeling in it, but he seems to be able to use it. Left leg seems improved.The seizures continue and we have changed his medication to try to get them under control. He is waking up and calling for help in the early hours of the morning and is unable to control his bladder during a seizure.But he's responding to his name again… At least as much as the stubborn old man used to anyway. And he is being much better with Nanuq after the last few days of acting terrified of his little brother. Not out of the woods yet but we have a go forward and still hoping for the best. #stlloki #siberianhusky #huskiesofinstagram Photo taken yesterday while eating lunch at Have a Cow. - March 10, 2024
- Send good vibes for the old man Loki. #stlloki is in a bad way this week. Suffered several grand mal seizures this week with no identifiable cause and has been left paralyzed in his right leg and partially on his left. His behavior has turned extremely erratic and verging on violent. He's having trouble recognizing people and even Nanuq.Not the best pic I have of him, but one of the most recent of the old man. #siberianhusky #huskiesofinstagram - March 8, 2024

Yes, for those who’ve asked… I’m still alive and kicking. Just busy as hell with work and home stuff that’s been eating me alive.
Well, enough has happened of late that warrants an update I think. First is the fact that I can now update this thing from work when I’m not really busy… say during lunch… so hopefully I can get more time to work on this blog.
Second, and I’ve received some email asking about this, yes the MythTV box is ticking along quite nicely thank you. Still no pictures yet, but I’ll get some as soon as I get a chance to. It works really well actually, in fact some might say surprisingly well for a product that is (a) free and (b) not even at version 0.2! I’ll take some time later today to write up some more info about it for your enjoyment.
Third, I got my bike this weekend!!! Sweet! OK… so it’s going to take some practice for me to ride it. I have ridden before but it’s (a) been a long time and (b) that bike weighed a good 50% less than this new one. As a result my first attempt at riding the bike was a little… interesting. Ah well, some practice and I think I’ll be in good shape. Now all I’ve got to do is get the title changed, tax paid, plates… oh you know, all the fun stuff.
As I said, more later… when I get some more time!
