Blah, blah, blah....

We hiked! We lived..I lived. These other rascals are all in wonderful shape of course. I've let my exercise program fall by the way side, which is not suggested. I don't care what your fighting, if you can lift an arm, a finger, a toe...exercise it! NO excuses!! (Yes, there will be a few examples out there that slam me to the mat with that emphatic statement. I concede)

Hike and all, we really did enjoy a wonderful trip into Telluride with a great group of friends. Spent a day in Denver managing business and seeing a few other friendly faces! Once back in Austin, TX, we were tired. Time for treatment! Yes indeed, it was time to spin the blood.

Symptoms were not horrible, but my vision had doubled and my swallow had slowed. Since I'm only on prednisone at this time, I still like to wait and see what my body will do. Living Science experiment! Wait until you see my at the next Science fair. My demonstration *will* take 1st prize! ...or not... :)

Oil change was Thursday, and now after this single pheresis treatment, I'm feeling very good. It takes a few days and a few naps, for my body to really absorb/accept/acknowledge/calm down/fall in line/stop fighting the benefits of the treatment. Yesterday, while getting up early to help out at church, and while driving ahead of the sun, and then while watching the sunrise and reading the sale ads (not the paper, needed more coffee), I really realized I was seeing clearly and felt good.

Blah, blah, blah....I bore me with this stuff...I can imagine you've gotten up to reheat the coffee by now. I should do the same.

All in all, I feel good! We will schedule a next oil change for me this week, just ahead of Lee and I taking off for our next adventure: Maine! That's right, we have a honeymoon date with a really big lobster and a stick of butter. Not sure they've officially met yet, but they will...in my belly....
