wednesday

Started with a trip to the doctor's office. I love our doctor -- he's a neighbor, a really good guy. Been having some trouble breathing, a little chest tightness, that sort of thing. Echo-stress-test tomorrow. My paternal grandmother started having heart attacks in her early thirties ... certainly can't hurt. Don't know that we'll find anything, but I'd be ecstatic to get to the bottom of the can't-take-a-deep-breath thing. Quit smoking five years ago after smoking two packs a day for fifteen years. Maybe it's emphysema? Stay tuned... Ended up skipping class yesterday to take Joanna to the ortho yet again, another sprained ankle. Starting physical therapy next week. Poor kid! Finished a draft of the new chapter, heading to workshop shortly.
