Just got the results from this mornings blood test, and while my absolute lymphocyte count is holding steady at around 88 thou/cumm, where it has essentially been for the past 10 months, the real surprise was my hemoglobin jumped to 13.6 g/dl from 12.5 g/dl last month.
No wonder I felt so good this morning on my bike ride. That should also put me in proper spirits for my first ride with the Team in Training Tucson Team this weekend.
Of course that could be an error, but I'll choose to believe otherwise, at least until I see next months results.
So this morning I checked the local wine shop (The Wine Exchange in Tustin), and they had 6 bottles of the 2003 Domaine Serene, Mark Bradford Vineyard, Pinot Noir left (The winery was sold out). I bought 3 of them. It was one of the wines we had at the Domaine Serene wine dinner, and it was excellent. Not as good as the '02 Monogram (so you can imagine how good that one was), but it was a lot less expensive, and I did buy a bottle of the '03 Monogram at the winery.
They also had the 2005 Scott Paul, Les Paulee, Pinot Noir, another excellent wine, which we tasted at the IPNC, and I bought 2 of them as well.
Can't wait to try them again.
And the other bit of good news is Earl Scheib is going to fix the side of the car, for $1,150.00 worth of damage, including painting the entire car. I was expecting double that, so I was pleasantly surprised. It will be ready Saturday.
So things are actually starting to look up again, and getting back to normal.
I actually even enjoyed going back to work yesterday.

BTW, I'm leaving early tomorrow because we're going to a Dodger game.
I can't believe I have to miss knit night for a freakin ball game.
Do you know anyone who would like to buy it?
They fixed the hood on Edie's car and did a very good job, so I'm confident, but I will give it a good going over though.
