I had my PET scan this morning. I’ll see my doctor next Tuesday to get the results. The PET scan was routine — I got the radioactive sugar shot, was put in isolation for 45 minutes while the radiation got distributed through my system, then in the scanner for 30 minutes.

It was 34º F on the deck at 7:00 am which means it got down to around 30º F in the garden (the garden thermometer quit working so I couldn’t check the temp im the garden). More roses are blooming, although timidly. Pillow Fight had some of the best blooms we’ve gotten so far. Pink Cascade has the most interesting center of all our roses.

While walking around the garden looking for photo ops, I came across the dreaded rose viper lying on the wall, hiding behind a rose bush ready to attack anything that got within its reach.
