What's Left?

Don and Michele July 2006.png

What is left?  Well on us, what is on our left side is crap-ola.  Michele wrote about her recent, peculiar pain attack, and then I chimed in with my own gout attack...both on our left sides.

Tonight I made my customary & strong after-dinner coffee, and asked my bride to carry it downstairs into the walkout basement for me.  I attend to the bird bath and bird feeder each evening, you see, and I needed to get to the gear on the lower level.  This evening, my gout has me stumping along like a pirate with a borrowed peg leg; a gait not conducive to coffee-mug transportation.

Michele obliged, and we descended the stairs as a bonded, supportive couple, wincing with our individualized pains, reflecting on the 'golden' years ahead.
