Collaborative medicine: what a concept! So glad to know that they offer that at Mayo. Universal charts were supposed to usher in a new era of doctors reading off the same page.

Frannie allows limited tummy rubs, but is VERY people oriented. I am spoiling her rotten.

Graham Greene: "Our Man in Havana," a spy satire, a bit of a departure for him. I like the Cold War moral conundrums in his spy novels.

No steak, but made a real nice beef stew.

Thanks so much to @loribmt and @janemc for the encouragement. It is a confidence booster!
