New growth

This bush on the terrace is putting out new leaves, and I like the shape as well.  I'll be keeping an eye on it as we move on into Spring.  Today I made some curry soup and cooked an artichoke for the first time in years; I don't think I'll do that again any time soon.  Tomorrow will be labs for my appointment with the nephrologist on Thursday.  It will be interesting to hear what he has to say about my upcoming radiation therapy.
