Trying to count stars

The appointments for the operations are moving, probably because of the pandemic keeping the hospital overly busy. My dad is looking stable, so i guess he can wait. Thank you for the prayers. Mom got the TVB Best Drama channel recommended on YouTube, and they have a good time watching those old shows in Cantonese. I can see myself enjoying it too, but i'm not doing it now, i hope someday.
I updated my time-lapse setup in early February. I upcycled a Ferrero Rocher Chocolate plastic container by modifying it to accommodate a Raspberry Pi Zero W with Camera Module. I drilled holes for screws to fix the boards to the transparent case. I also drilled a hole for the USB cable. It has been exposed to all weather conditions for almost two months, including snow and rain. The view is more clear now, because the shell is thin, without reflections and dirt from the old window. And i don't need the fan anymore, because there is not much humidity. I like to think that this is me sitting outside and looking at the sky, trying to count stars.
