Going to smoke a chicken on the Weber Kettle. Beautiful wife will make some tater salad. Cooking is my therapy, and grilling is therapy in the extreme. Smoking a chicken on a kettle grill is an exercise in patience and timing. My pastor preached on sitting at the feet of Jesus today. Being quiet and seeking wisdom is "the good thing." Whatever your thing is, I hope you will make sure to apply your time resources to that today.
So, I'll be doing my thing today. Finding my center all over again. I'll catch up with you later.
In the meantime, what is YOUR thing?

Why do I like this one? I have a primary residence on the Mountain of Right.
Of you who read my previous post, how many of you caught the quote I stole from a movie? Can you name the movie and who said it?
Bet you didn’t know there would be a test…..
So, I have completed 4 of 6 chemo infusions, and I have to say that the last one seems to have caused almost no side effects that cannot be otherwise explained by the disease itself. I remain exhausted all the time, and I go home at the end of the workday positively depleted. That, however, seems to be due to the anemia that somewhat existed before chemo started but certainly seems to have been exacerbated by it.
I presently sit at a 40% disability rating with the Veterans Administration with some big stuff pending. I am awaiting a decision on my hearing loss and the PTSD/Depression. The cancer aspect takes a step forward with an exam by a VA contracted provider who will provide a recommendation as to the service connection to the cancer. If it goes my way and I get to 100%, then as soon as the first check hits the bank, I’m retired. While this exam is scheduled for Monday, I have no assurance that a VA determination will be quickly forthcoming. Patience is the key.
