More muddle

After I got home yesterday, I realized that I can't have an EPO shot on Tuesday because that's the day I finally have my trigger finger release!  So I'll have to reschedule and I don't know how soon after the surgery it will be safe for me to get the shot.  Meanwhile I become more anemic by the day.

I had a long phone conversation with Gena and Terri this afternoon, which made my day.  We've not spoken in a while because when I'm feeling as ill as I've been I don't reach out.  But we caught up with what's been going on and joked and laughed, and afterward I felt so much better.

It turns out that there is a large stand of purple iris on the terrace, so here is a shot of it.  It's so dark that it's hard to see the definition of the flowers.  But they certainly demand attention.
