I'm going to spend some time, tonight...
...doing some updating, moving things around, maybe some maintenance (I've been neglecting doing meta tags, for instance), and journalizing this unusual colonoscopy experience.
    We went out to eat, tonight, Black Angus; my mother wanted steak. Another good sign. She overestimated the durability of her energy and pooped out half way through her steak but she'd gorged herself on sweet molasses bread, salad (can you believe that?!?), shrimp cocktail and she insisted on a glass of wine, which always throws her for a loop because of the glipizide. She practically fell asleep at the table, thoroughly contented. We decided to take the meat home (I could only manage a third of my steak), with her broccoli (if you're not a vegetable lover from the get go, broccoli after salad is a bit much to expect) and make beef, vegetable, barley soup with cider vinegar and a touch of MPBIL's southwestern spice: American Hot and Sour.
    I rubbed her feet, marveled at her color, we joked awhile about doctors, observed and commented on and to The Girls (our cats), and by 2130 she was ready for bed.
    The first thing I'm going to do is move the Colonoscopy Instructions to a page which will also contain preliminary and complete results of the test.
    I'm circumspect on the subject of miracles. There are so many and, the more we explain, the more we discover, that it seems oxymoronic to call the unexplained "miraculous". Perhaps what is miraculous about the unexplained is that when we finally explain a miracle, that is when the miraculous begins.
    I'll be back later.
