I've been distracted of late—caught up in the medical churn. Today is my last (I hope) big appointment, an hour and a half away at the "big hospital" in Rochester. (No pool today.) We have LOTS of good comments awaiting publication from the "Photographs Are Beautiful" post still awaiting publication, some of them quite long. I had hoped to get those done this morning but, alas, more distraction, and now the time is gone and the window is closed again. They will be top on the TOP agenda once I put this appointment in the rearview mirror. I might even figure out a way to make new posts out of several of them. Keep yer fingers crossed for me this morning! Really hoping for a clean bill of health and the go-ahead to exercise.
[UPDATE seven hours later: Thumbs up. No pacemaker needed, no followup necessary, [further boring details redacted]. And the green light to exercise. ::big smile::]

Best of luck with the medical evals, Mike. Sure sounds like you're back on your feet, and I hope the docs agree. Looking forward to the "beauty" discussion!

Mike,
I sincerely hope that you find out that all is well. My wife has been going through a "medical churn" of her own. I can certainly sympathize with what you are going through.
All the best to you!

Great! Re the exercise... SLOW IMMERSION. Don't rush, don't overdo it. The number one reason for people quitting is too much, too soon.
Crawl before you walk. Walk before you jog. Jog before you sprint. Or find that moderate doable middle and stay with it.
Good luck.
