Currently in Coosada



It's 5-something, Tuesday morning ... 



Outside my window

It's baaaaack.
The sun's not up, but Alexa says another 4" of rain's expected this week.



I'm thankful
For a good follow-up with Tom's doctor last week.
He's supposed to begin cardiac rehab, but we're in a holding pattern, waiting for TriWest authorization.  That's OK.  If they don't come through, I'll try and get him to start walking with me.



I'm thinking
Not only is Dr. Ahmed an internationally-recognized cardiac surgeon, but a super nice fellow, too.
Easy on the eyes, too. (*grin*)



I don't much care for it … but have become accustom to folks (particularly at UAB) offering fist-bumps v. handshakes.  Not only did Dr. Ahmed shake Tom's hand, but walked across the room and shook mine as well.  No-one's ever done that before!

BTW … how do you feel about shaking hands these days?





One of my favorite things
I literally squealed when I spotted green carnations at Dollar Tree.  Some of you may remember, my father always bought me green carnations on my birthday.  Every year, for 31 years.

They're not particularly fancy or showy, but they're my favorite flower.



I'm looking forward to
Daylight Savings Time!
Our meteorologist quipped, "One less hour of rain!"



Still smiling

About the awesome lunch we enjoyed at Longhorn Steakhouse.
Tom had his usual rib-eye and loaded potato, but I couldn't pass up the salmon and baked creamed spinach.

Happy 78th Birthday to youuuuu!
… you're still a rock star.
Tom and John are still friends, and yakked on the phone just last night.



A thought to share
Amen!



I hope y'all have a safe and stress-less day!
Thanks for making time to visit!

Hugs, Myra
