It's been a while, lots going onAt least we can start with some pretty video of the usual place, West Old LaHonda. This has been an interesting year; "Winter" wasn't all that bad, but Spring has been much colder than usual, at least on the Tuesday & Thursday-morning rides. Cold enough that it caught me off guard a bit with my Raynauds (a condition that shuts off blood circulation to fingers and toes when cold or stressed), so finally I had to seek treatment for chillblains gone wild. ![]() Funny to think that, just a few years ago, I wouldn't have made an appointment to deal with something like this in the first place, due to my extreme fear of having blood drawn. Now, it's just this thing I have to do, because of my diagnosis three years ago with Essential Thrombocythemia, a mild bone-marrow cancer that causes my body to make too many platelets. Hard to believe I have no real issues with blood draws anymore. I still can't look at the needle being inserted, but at least I've gotten to the point where I don't mind seeing the vials of blood after. |
