It’s five in the morning, and the roosters haven’t even started crowing yet, but Mary is already up! I was up a few minutes earlier and got the bathroom warm courtesy of the ceiling heater. She got presentable, and I drove her to her gym appointment. It was really cold this morning!

We laid down in the snow and watched the penguins dance back and forth!
Upon my arrival, Scout eagerly awaited to go outside. I then completed yesterday’s Daily Diary and started today’s.
At 10:00 AM, we visited my doctor in Orange. The visit took 15 minutes, and my PSA was 0.0, indicating that the cancer is gone.

Since I retired almost sixteen years ago, I’m uncertain whether I’ll be able to recognize anyone there apart from some of the “old farts”.
