Hard to Distract It's March 17th and I put on green to lift the gloomy feeling. I tried to let the silly holiday distract me, but the Covid news was always lurking, whether I was reading, playing piano, cleaning or sorting. I put coffee in my Irish cup this morning. After lunch, I went on a walk and enjoyed the bluebonnets. But seeing a few others out walking, I sensed that we all felt uncertain. No one knows what the rules are yet. Later, I talked to my friend in Chicago. She talked about walking 2 miles to vote, to avoid public transportation. She talked about her city, with no St. Pat's parade and no green river. I told her that a week ago, our Houston Rodeo had been shut down 11 days early. Embracing our Irish But by evening, I let go of the worry for a while. Don and I celebrated with green beverages and corned beef and cabbage. We blasted some Irish jig music and I got out my goofy dancing friend.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Not-So-Happy List
Cancer, Covid & Coronary... I started this complaining list/blog, in May 2016. I posted 200 gripes about my breast CANCER and then I was done. On March 13, 2020, I started venting all over again, when another disease (starting with a C) interfered with my life. This time it was the invasion of COVID and it affected every person. I ranted for a year, until I got my COVID vaccine in March 2021. CORONARY Artery Disease was the reason I restarted this blog on September 26, 2021. This time it was my hubby Don, who was dealing with a worry that started with the letter "C". Coronavirus and Cancer, Coronary Artery Disease! All are evil, but none can totally get me down... if I vent! I usually end up feeling a little more positive at the end of each post! Navigating This Mess! The most recent post is at the top, from coronary posts in 2022, back to cancer posts in 2016. To find past posts, look below the "Archives" section, to find "Categories". Archives
