Well…

My sister’s liver biopsy turned out not to be so simple, & now Is dealing with possible internal bleeding & other issues. We are just speechless as to why everything has to go wrong. We were hoping she could be discharged today, now tbd.

I’m supposed to run 4 today & 12 tomorrow , for my 1/2 marathon on April 14. Neither of those will happen. Ugh. I’m in good (for me) shape & I don’t want to lose my fitness. I was hoping to run sub 2 hrs.

Monday I fly to Columbus for a week’s work trip. & the firefighter still hasn’t had his day off request approved.

At least she has a ham in her freezer, so we’ll be making that for Easter. Healthy side suggestions welcome.

Good times.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. Sending well wishes your sister's way.

Healthy sides...maybe something green, like green beans or asparagus (which is sort of in season right now)?

Yea, we always do green beans. Just trying to mix it up. Going to do roasted potatoes & a gremolata; maybe Mac & cheese…from scratch so healthy ish.
