Just want it off my page. No more Valentine Moons. Bad February. Bad. I hope, with Recovery, to initiate a month in which both Kate and I head towards healthy. I&#8217;m already well on the road and Kate looks like she&#8217;s taking the first tentative steps.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s some irony. Good buddy Tom Crane wrote me a note. Guess what it said. &#8220;I have pneumonia, too.&#8221; WTF! Paul Strickland, who was on the Zoom call on Sunday as well, had the plague. As his doctor called it. I mentioned that earlier. I had the plague plus pneumonia. That&#8217;s 3 of the 5 guys, all over 70, who had or have serious respiratory illnesses. Again, I say, no more Valentine Moon. Bad February. Bad.<\/p>\n<p>Kate and I are off to a pulmonologist today. Haven&#8217;t seen one of those yet. She may get a full pulmonary function workup because part of the visit is to assess her fitness for surgery to place the j-tube. It&#8217;s also to follow-up on x-ray findings of possible interstitial lung disease. Afterward we plan to go to Maria&#8217;s Empanadas and pick up a dozen of Kate&#8217;s favorite midnight snack.<\/p>\n<p>The solar snow shovel has melted most of the snow from the &#8220;monster&#8221; storm we had over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Got out the Instant Pot and made chuck roast last night. Tasty. Also, got all of the spices and herbs out of the cabinet. They&#8217;re currently all over the kitchen counter. I&#8217;m going to rearrange them in hopes of being able to find easily what I need. Where&#8217;s Maria Kondo? I might need her. Do I love the second can of cumin? Does it bring me joy?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imbolc\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Recovery Moon I&#8217;m kicking the Valentine Moon off the header at 1% waning.
