Had a wonderfully long day yesterday. My wife prepared a fantastic meal with Mediterranean spiced lamb, glazed Ham, scalloped potatoes from scratch, her mom’s tabouili, her father’s strudel recipe - along with some great deserts and salads brought by family members. But the most savory part was having family whom I love dearly around the table . I got to teach my nephew and my wife’s cousin to fly fish as well. Clothing-wise this is very typical around here. Clearly I am the odd guy out. But I have learned to be comfortable in wearing what I feel comfortable wearing. I don’t look down on anyone else who dresses down, But more importantly I have learned not to look down at myself for wearing what I feel appropriate. If this were a pool party- yes I would not be appropriately attired. An Easter party as host at my own house? That is another thing altogether.

Getting admitted for IV antibiotics as my inflammation markers are 250 (which is slightly on the high side) and apparently should be around 1-10 . Means I can’t go home with oral antibiotics. Due to the impending public holiday tomorrow unless anything gets worse overnight surgery happening Tuesday

Surgery Done, 24 hours minimum hospital supervision now, but more like 48 needed. I have a small drain in the area of my groin to remove any fluid that may build up, they also want to keep an eye on my pain levels and any reactions I might have, plus Still slightly medicated after the surgery 😷 Thankyou all for the prayers, thoughts and well wishes. You are all such phenomenal men within these groups.
