Sorry for the neglect

Okay, first, I am sorry to neglect you, my sweet blog friend. You have been my salvation and catharsis during my empty nest/ dog death/ lousy weather thing.

But, please understand... My sister had a NSTEMI, what we call an en-stim-ee in the trade, a 'non-ST elevation myocardial infarction'. A heart attack that does not result in the elevation of the S and T waves on an electrocardiogram. Serious stuff, dammit.

But, I am doing fine. I am spending a good portion of my time checking on her, explaining meds and side effects, doing last minute shopping for her, arranging for visits with her grandkids...

Anyway, I have not forgotten you. I'll be back soon.
