The Mayo Clinic sent me a wonderful birthday wish - an email reminding me that at my age, lots of things in my body are starting to fail, so I had best get to the doctor for a series of screenings so they can start to patch me up. How kind, and what a wonderful way to celebrate!

Instead, we're going to go look at some real estate later today. I was recently reflecting that we spent last Valentine's Day quickly eating dinner over the kitchen sink before meeting with a realtor. Time passes, but certain things just never change.
