Happy New Week, good and hearty Stay-the-Coursers! Here's hoping this second week of torrid August in the one-for-all-times year of 2020 brings you much joy -- or at least no headaches.
Well, no exciting news here. (But sometimes no news is good news, right?) After taking my wife to get her nice new hearing aids adjusted, I actually asked if she'd like to visit Tuesday Morning. Usually I grumble and growl when she wants to go there, but for this one Tuesday morning, I am a model husband for taking her there and accepting a few of her purchase suggestions (wants? needs?).
One week from today brings my cardiologist check-up geared to my one-year anniversary of aneurysm/valve surgery. Actual anniversary is 9/18 but I gather I'll be going through some tests in the interim, including a CT-scan. Hopefully will show the aneurysm kaput and the bovine valve doing well, and indicate whether a procedure to correct the incisional hernia is needed soon or down the road. Right now, my main pain is on the flip side: back and hip pain in daily dawgwalk. It's the old spinal stenosis flaring up, and along with the heat and humidity, it saps much of the joy from a dawgwalk. A friend on Facebook said she and her hubby are checking out something called Neuro HF10 (think I remember that correctly), an implant that may ease back pain for some without invasive surgery. Don't know if it is a possible way to dull stenotic pain or not. Got to do more research.
Anyway, always something, right? Part of a book, "The Joy of Aging," I contemplate writing. Candidate for fiction section of library?
Soldier on, Coursers! Let's hear how you're doing.
Cheers,
Superbob
