Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!

Everything went well today...

- I feel fine

- the printer that we ordered came and I set it up with no problem

- we took advantage of the weather and went for a walk

About the only thing that I wrestle with these days is that my medications tend to leave an aftertaste in my mouth such that it overrides whatever I've eaten for a meal and it tends to temporize my desire to eat. While consuming the meal, I have no problem - unlike chemo which affected the taste of everything and made just about everything distasteful. However, after the meal, the medicinal aftertaste sets in and it destroys all the enjoyment that you get from eating.

I suppose that that is minor in the grand scheme of things but I don't have much to enjoy at this point in time other than my meals. As the song goes, "I don't get around much, anymore".

Tomorrow is another early day at the clinic with the added fun of undergoing a bone marrow biopsy once again. So, I'll let you know how it all works out. However, I don't expect that there will be any issues and I look forward to a somewhat short clinic visit.

That's about it for today.

Tomorrow's entry should should be a little more significant...
