I realize I owe my loyal readers an update on my surgery recovery – or at least something about what I’ve done the past couple days. But for now I thought I’d just list all the medicines I’m on, because it’s a long list. One of my fellow SCDS patients, referring to how things were… Continue reading Todd’s pill list

Wednesday’s adventures
Yesterday I wrote that I was hoping to get outdoors to a park or something today. And sure enough, that’s what happened.

I can’t remember staying in a hotel with worse internet connectivity (not counting hotels that say they don’t even offer internet service). But once we brought our… Continue reading shrimp and more shrimp in Baton Rouge
