Off to Rochester on Monday... It has been good to have this two week break. Then again there is comfort having a checkup each week and knowing all is well.
Here's the good news. Brent Kramer (Brother-in-law), Chris Kreul (college buddy) and I did 9 holes of golf this morning. Believe it or not, we had to wait for the rain to stop, but it was a beautiful cool morning. Perfect for my first round of golf this summer.
Now, certain Mayo medical staff suggested that golf was not a good activity because I still have the central line in my chest. They mentioned that it might become dislodged, but what do they know. They evidently spend too much time making people better and not enough time on a golf course.
Actually, since the Hickman line is on the right side of my chest, it doesn't really get bothered at all during my swing. I suspected that it would be a non issue.
Bad news for Brother-in-law Brent, he had to settle for the same score as me: a 45 on 9 holes @ Keuhn Park. I've done better there, but all things considered (first time out and the fact that I am still not event to day 100), I am very happy with how things went. I don't know what Brent's excuse was. Chris, beat us both but he is in both IT and banking, so he spends a fair amount of time golfing...
Great company (Thanks guys), perfect morning on the course.
I should thank Andy as well. She was dealing with 9 little kids this morning. Alivia had friends over for a birthday sleepover last night. Hard to believe 8 years ago, we started our not so little family. Nothing has been the same since and that is all good.
It is a good day.
