Senile and old or not, I still expect you to find the cure for all cancers next year.
There is NOTHING delightful about 28 degrees in Gulfport.

After the plow came yesterday and pushed all the snow in our cul-de-sac in front of my driveway, I had to go out and shovel through a 4 foot wide, 41 inch deep wall of snow & ice. I did carefully set aside several ice boulders for you that should melt to snowball size by March.

Oh, and to keep on point: Don't you just hate it when you shovel out your driveway and then the snow plow comes by and walls you in? Feels sort of like when the radiation aftereffects come even when you have stopped treatment.

We three laugh with each other, not at each other as you can imagine. What I really really hate is when my internet connection goes kaput and I am cut off from OCF.
