Good-bye Kidney, Hello Winter

 Tom's surgery on Jan.3 was long and they ended up taking his kidney. Hopefully all the cancer that was headed up to it was eliminated with that action.

He was in the hospital for six days and opted to come home rather than to to rehab. I have been watching over him during this slow (and painful) recovery period.

(Not so) funny story....when it was time to drive away with him from the front of the hospital my battery had died. Happily, a hospital security guy got it charged up for us. (Follow up...the battery was fine the next three times I took my car for errands, but I ended up buying a new one at Triple A anyway (it failed when they checked it).)

So it snowed and got cold on Tuesday through now and it is supposed to snow again (lightly!) on Friday. I think driving Tom to his eye shot appointment on Thursday will be fine. I ended up cancelling lunch with Marian today (I forgot!) but driving is probably good today too. (I need a hair cut!) (I hear the wind blowing outside my computer room window. I'll bet it is really cold).

We haven't danced or gone to a movie since 2024 started. :-(   

I haven't had much time scheduled to work at Block. The three people I was working with all ended up pretty complicated. I love reading all the issues people have in the community chat (there are a lot!)
