What a great day all around.

I think the gremlins must have been completely drugged to a state of immobility yesterday. Truthfully I had feelings of what it might be like to be healed of this dreaded situation. My body just seemed to cooperate and remain comfortable all day as Mike and I drove around just having fun, visiting friends and feeding our faces. We started with a visit to my dear friend Dick Meeks, who is recovering in Dayton from the first of his two hip replacements. He looked great and was well on the road to full recovery so far. It was a thrill for him to see Mike as well. Then we headed to Larry and Carm's to convince them to drive to Springfield for lunch and some nostalgic country side driving. Lunch was just fantastic at our old stomping ground of 30 years ago, Mike and Rosie's Deli. Of course the conversation could go back to the young days of Mike and Steve so it was so much fun to pull out those memories and just laugh and laugh. Mike and I then returned to Cincinnati in time for Cindy and I to have a meeting and then we all met later, with Carrie and Bill for Mike's most favorite meal yet to be enjoyed and that of course was Skyline. After a delicious late night Skyline we returned home only to crash into our beds, our bellies full, our bodies tired and our hearts enriched. Now today Mike leaves, but not before he first helps me in the morning to solve our crazy computer problems and then he takes me to my CT Scan to check on the throat and chest congestion problem of Monday. I'm always nervous before these scans so please keep me in your thoughts and prayers today. I know I will have only good news to share in the few days. I am amazed that so much can happen in just one day, and all of it based on simple memories and blessings. Remember you are all loved and blessed too.
