The reason I've been absent so much the last few days is that we've been locked in combat assembling my son Daniel's Captain's Bed. It has been absolute hell - the directions were useless - one page with pictures and type so small that I couldn't make them out even with a magnifying glass. Also, I've been beating myself up physically lifting things, bending down and standing much longer than I should.
We finally finished this afternoon - my thighs are like jelly and my back is out.

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
