My Photo of the Day was almost, ALMOST something to do with taking a really really long shower this morning. And then a really really long soaking bath this evening. But capturing that – well, not as easy as one may expect. And besides, Seneca Creek SP was really really fun – nice! And they’ve got a great Christmas Light display that we want to return to in the future. Located mayhaps 20-ish minutes NW of Bethesda, Mom and I enjoyed the road tripping aspect, and exploring a new area. There are multiple parks near us, and this is something we’d like to continue through my 100-ish days out here. Plus, we walked for an hour, or so, and really I felt good.
Oh – and the picture of just me with my arms at a weird angle was a test to get the proper focus with my camera. But it was funny, and part of my artistic process, so there you go.
Backtracking….
My shower was incredible, and bath amazing. Mom even picked up bath salts and bubble bath to toss in, which made soaking in the tub a delight. I’m not normally a bath person, but after 7-ish weeks of minding my Central Line, well, today was epic and I won’t soon forget how lovely it felt.
Other great things about today? I baked a loaf of banana bread, and Mom and I officially trimmed the tree! We’ve still got one or ten ornaments on the way, and we’ll need a tall person (Andy) to help with the star on top, but generally, it’s feeling more and more holiday-ish around here. I’m just happy that I didn’t destroy the bread. Oh – and we watched Part 3 of whatever Netflix movie we binged last night. It was terrible. But also wonderful and worth it.
Here’s to bidding farewell to the (post-transplant day) 30s and moving towards the 40s!

So wonderful to see you and your Mom striding confidently through the park!

Walking through Seneca State Park with Marit was great, but not necessarily the high point of the day; because, the real deal was the SHOWER!! I heard singing and splashing like I’ve never heard before. Pure joy! The reminder of the day included baking, trimming the tree, and watching Christmas movies.
